Question

Look over Samantha's Handout of Information you were provided above. Similar to how you wrote about your goals for your own Diet Analysis, use Samantha's information to answer these questions.

• Do you think that Samantha's diet is sufficient enough to satisfy her hunger?
• Suggest FOUR changes in her diet (focus on food groups, nutrients, and other specific categories)
• Explain how she can make each change (i.e., decrease X, increase Y, etc. and by eating specifically which types of foods - please give examples
• What will happen if she stays on the current path and doesn't make the particular change you suggest?

Again, be specific. Do not just say food X has more nutrients - explain which nutrients exactly (in other words, for example, type of carb, type of fat, type of vitamins and/or minerals, etc., etc.). Explain the health effects of each change as you discuss, do not list overall health benefits in a sentence at the end of the suggested three changes.

Remember to use food examples and explain changes rather than saying "she needs to eat healthier, eat better, watch his weight," etc.).

Answer 1

Changes to be made:

1. Intake of more calories which includes saturated fats which are considered to be less healthy in the diet should be avoided!

Example: Snickers candy bar, Pizza hut pizza, Ultimate cheese lovers pan (overall saturated fat percentage includes more than 30%).

2. A diet that includes less intake of vitamins that are needed for the proper functioning of the body's metabolism can be managed by including a diet with more vitamin intake.

Example: Mountain dew soda (which includes vitamin D, E, K at 0%). Instead, diet can be included with foods like egg yolks, beef liver, mushrooms, cereals, and juices.

3. Dietary products that do not include more intake of minerals like zinc, calcium, magnesium, potassium can be altered with foods rich in mineral sources.

Example: Star bucks frappuccino (which has zinc = 0%, calcium, magnesium at very low rates). Intake of meat, dairy products, nuts, eggs can be done.

4. Consuming foods like fried ( french fries) can have several negative health effects. Thus, it is probably best to avoid or limit the intake of fried foods and regular intake of fresh fruits and vegetables since they are a good source of antioxidants.
