At my house there was always an emphasis on nutritional health. From an early age I had a vast amount of knowledge about which foods to eat and which to avoid. My dad is very particular about the food we eat. He puts a lot of emphasis on eating healthy and makes us eat lots of fruits and vegetables, even if we don’t like it. Often we would grow our own produce in our yard so my mom could use fresh vegetables and herbs in her cooking. Although…
Throughout this paper you will find that it is going to be discussing many things. Some of those things are to describe a current health problem or nutritional need that I may be experiencing, four nutritional or physical exercise goals, the actions taken to meet each goal, the anticipated setbacks or difficulties and the approaches to overcome them, the outcomes by which to measure success, evidence of the plans effectiveness by addressing the identified problem or need, and the evaluation of potential health risks that may develop if the plan is not implemented. So basically this paper is going to be about a realistic nutrition and exercise plan that best suits me.…
Children’s growth, behaviour and development can be affected by their diet. A balanced diet will help children to remain healthy as well as to grow.

One can easily agree that it is imperative for a child’s diet to remain hearty but, everyone has a story. Zinczenko points out that when he went to college then joined the Navy Reserves, he managed his diet. Not everyone has the ability to do that. Yes, most, but not everyone. It may be hard for parents to provide healthy lifestyles for their kids possibly because they’re busy or it’s not affordable for them. Knowing there are understandable…

High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a disease that runs in my family. High blood pressure (HBP) or hypertension means high pressure (tension) in the arteries. Arteries are vessels that carry blood from the pumping heart to all the tissues and organs of the body. High blood pressure does not mean excessive emotional tension, although emotional tension or stress can temporarily increase blood pressure. Normal blood pressure is below 120/80; blood pressure between 120/80 and 139/89 is called "pre-hypertension", and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is considered high. While hypertension is not a current health problem for me, I am worried it may become one for me or my children in the future due to the family history. I know a healthy diet and exercise plan is the best way to protect myself from getting the disease. Other factors that can contribute to hypertension are; smoking, and stress, both of which are things I need to get under control for my future health.…
“48 and Overweight.” This may sound like the title to a new reality television show, but the true reality is that this is my current life status. Thanks to eating and drinking too much of the wrong things and leading a mostly sedentary lifestyle, I found myself weighing 215 pounds, which is 50 pounds heavier than my target weight. I currently experience pain in my knees for the first time in my life, and become winded quite easily while doing minimally strenuous activities. I was always an active child, teenager, and adult, and was mostly underweight most of my life. When I turned 40, my weight increased at a rapid pace, and…
Eating healthy is not just a short term goal; it’s a life time commitment. Not only will you feel great, but you will look great as well. 8 weeks ago I conducted a 3-day diet analysis and I discovered that my nutritional habits have drastically changed since then. I have made key changes that will have life-long benefits that will lower my risk of all types of diseases and sickness recorded by my SuperTracker. I also analyzed my diet and exercise results and identified a current nutritional need I am experiencing and a health nutrition problem I can foresee experiencing because of traits from my family history. Therefore I developed a realistic nutrition and exercise plan by including four nutritional and physical exercise goals the will assist me in optimizing good health.…
As a child I would always place myself in the overweight category. I generally found it very difficult to eat real food I would always find myself snacking away on junk food when I was hungry. I recognized I had a problem with my weight at the age of 16. At the age of 14 I was actively participating in sporting activities and played rugby league for several years. It was my years of playing league that made me distinguish that maybe I was doing something wrong; that is the reason I gained weight gradually in comparison to my other team mates.…

Children are facing chronic health problems that should not occur for years or decades. Another matter is that even though children are overweight, and their caloric intake is excessive, they are not necessarily well nourished. They are often not getting enough calcium, vitamins, and fiber because many of them do not eat enough fruits and vegetables. Parents need to look at their own eating habits. You cannot expect your children to learn good eating habits if you do not have them yourself. Eating habits are learned. Now your children need to relearn good ones. This can not make parents popular, but it about health not popularity. Keep in mind, one out of every four children is overweight. This is an opportunity to make changes. You need to make changes slowly. Pick one habit you want to change every month, but take your time. Kids take a long time to make changes. Think about what you are going to change next month, for example, one night a week, do not have dessert, have fruit. Get your kids involved, you will win on several fronts here. It is time for parents and kids to catch up, gives the parents help after a busy day, and important, kids will eat more of what they prepared. Sadly, fewer and fewer families eat meals together. Nevertheless, kids love to eat with their parents, and parents should make time to eat with their children so they can work on…
