...P3: Explain possible influences on dietary intake. Introduction: In this assignment I will be explaining possible influences on dietary intake. I will be looking at factors such as; health factors, education, age, social policy, economic factors, socio-cultural factors and lifestyle factors and how each of these can positively or negatively influence an individual's dietary intake. Health factors: Diabetes: Health factors like diabetes can influence a person’s dietary intake because people with diabetes are only allowed certain food for example they cannot have too much sugar in their blood as it will cause very serious health problems if not treated quick. Hyperglycemia is one of the health problems that can damage vessels that provide blood to vital organs, by increasing the risk of stroke, problem with nerve, heart disease and so much more. However the health problems for people with diabetes only occur in adulthood, particularly if they have not managed or even controlled their diabetes properly.

...Question 1 What is the meaning of the brand identity of OSIM? Brand identity emanates from the organisation, and is how it wants its products to be viewed by its stakeholders. ‘Brand identity’ is not defined in Marketing in Asia, but Aaker defines it as “what the organisation wants the brand to stand for in the customer’s mind” or “how strategists want the brand to be perceived”. In more recent literature, Kotler and Keller define it as “the way a company aims to identify or position… its product”. Applied here, the question is therefore how OSIM aspires for their brand to be perceived by both their internal and external customers. Here, OSIM wishes for their brand to be “synonymous with healthy lifestyle”, “[i]nspiring [w]ell-[b]eing” through having a positive mindset and healthy living. What are the different aspects of this identity? For ease of reference, for this part, I have decided to adopt Aaker’s Brand Identity Planning Model (see Figure 1 below): Figure 1: Brand Identity Planning Model Brand as a Product OSIM’s brand promises “product innovation, design and quality, performance, and safety standards”. Further, OSIM intends for its products to be perceived as something which is value-for-money. Here, the focus is more on the intangible benefits, in particular the impact of having a healthier lifestyle. According to Aaker, under this category, it is important for customers to recall a brand when they have a need in that particular product class. Having been...

...North East The profitability of a beef suckler herd is directly related to the number of calves reared per cow annually. Commercial suckler herds should aim for a tighter calving period with cows producing a viable calf every 365 days. The average calving period for lowland suckler herd is 21 weeks, compared to the 12 week target and reducing the calving period from 21 weeks to 12 weeks can increase revenue from extra weaning weight by more than £2000 for a 50 cow herd. Tighter calving periods will increase profitability. If the weaning date on the farm stays constant then a calf born in the first 3 weeks of calving will on average have a weaning age of 230 days weighing 309kg. A calf born in the 18th week of calving will be 125 days of age at weaning and 188kg in weight. This potential range of ages and weights will lead to higher incidence of pneumonia and calf sickness if all weaned together. Keeping the calving period tighter within the herd has a number of benefits including less labour requirements at calving which in turn reduces production costs. Even batches of calves at weaning- time leads to simpler calf management and increased weaning weights allowing correct nutrition for the calf and cow separately. Artificially inseminating pedigree and also commercial suckler herds is becoming more popular. This allows access to top quality genetics without the investment of a bull. The increased availability of bulls will allow the farmer to select particular traits...

...M3/D2: Assess & Evaluate how the nutritional plan might improve the health of the chosen individuals There are several reasons about individual’s diet. Every individual had different life style different diet and different nutrition intake .In order to have a balance diet we need to eat a range of different food. However I as an individual I did not eat breakfast, which is not good for me, as I will feel tiered throughout a day. Since I start to record my food eating, meals, snacks, sweets, drinks and food supplement and make my diet plan I recognise how unhealthy I eat. From this type of chart which I record all my nutrients intake I realise that I eat fat food like bread, chapatti, biscuit, cake, and also I use double cream a lot when I cook at home. By having too much fat in my diet can raise my cholesterol, which might increase risk of heart disease. Taking less saturated fat I reduce my risk of stroke, heart disease and some of cardiovascular disease. Eating too much salt and sugar can lead to overweight and lack of physical activity. Overweight and fatness are major risk factors of the many diseases as well as polygenic disease, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. A number of these can even cause death. By using large portion every day I add weight and I feel more tired during the day. Also I use to sleep straight away after eating that effect me on my healthy diet. To have healthy diet need self-control and balance. To avoid that, I take breakfast every...

...Unit 21: Nutrition for Health and Social Care Unit code: L/601/2407 QCF Level 3: BTEC Nationals Credit value: 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose This unit aims to give learners an understanding of current thinking on nutritional health particularly relating to users of health and social care services. Learners will then be able to apply this understanding and make recommendations to improve the nutritional health of an individual. Unit introduction This unit builds on learner understanding of the principles introduced in Unit 5: Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology for Health and Social Care. Improvements in the diet of individuals are increasingly being recognised as a significant factor in maintaining, or effecting improvements, in overall health. It is therefore important that people working in the health and social care sectors, or those who are responsible for the wellbeing of others, have a good understanding of nutrition and diet. This unit gives learners an understanding of nutrition from a science-based perspective and of the role that food plays in social contexts. The unit may also provide useful underpinning knowledge for the study of food hygiene and practical culinary skills. Learners will explore concepts of nutrition using the language of nutritional science. Different aspects of nutritional health will be defined and routine ways of measuring this explored. Other aspects of nutritional data will involve describing...
