    Over the past years I have heard a lot of talk centered around the popular diet book, “Skinny Bitch”. I was interested to learn what all the commotion was about, this assignment was a great opportunity to read this book. I was surprised to find that “Skinny Bitch” is based upon a vegan diet. I was also surprised by the way in which the book was written, it read and sounded much more like my girlfriends and I chatting with one another rather than a professional legitimate diet book. There are cuss words splashed throughout the book and the writer is very direct with her opinions. However, as the reader it was truly convincing and made me feel like I better get my butt up, throw out any meat and dairy in my kitchen, and get to the store and buy a case of tofu, ASAP. Because the diet is vegan that means absolutely no meat, including poultry, pork, and fish. Also no dairy, including eggs, cheese, basically no animal by-products are allowed. There is also a chapter on artificial sweeteners and processed food, which are not allowed in the diet either. The book strongly suggest to quit smoking and cut back on alcohol, which I absolutely support; smoking is disgusting and large amounts of alcohol are unhealthy.…

    "Sweet and Low" is the story of those ubiquitous little pink packets of sugar substitute that you see in restaurants and diners and coffee shops — the story of the role saccharine played in the diet revolution that began sweeping America in the 1950's and the story of the artificial sweetener wars that raged in the 80's and 90's. The story is about the family that invented first the sugar packet and then Sweet'N Low, capitalizing on Americans' diet madness to build a company that by 1996 was producing 50 million packets of artificial sweetener a day at a factory in Brooklyn. In this book, the author (Richard Cohen) plays multiple roles of narrator, stage manager and chorus. The rest of the characters in the book are Benjamin Eisenstadts: the eldest in the family, whose inventiveness and drive made the family's millions, but who basically "wanted a simple life", "A piece of grapefruit. Something sweet in his tea." Ben's wife, Betty, "the power behind the throne," a woman who wanted "a pile of money to protect her from shame and disaster," a woman who believed that "love is finite" and must be allocated among family members, with some getting more than others. The…

    A ‘fad diet’ is a diet that promises dramatic weight loss, which results in a short period of time. These diets usually remove all food groups and due to this do not actually provide the essential nutrients that we need for our everyday lives. These diets do not result in long-term weight loss and are a very unhealthy way of loosing weight. Fad diets are very intriguing because they all promise a quick fix. Nutritionists are concerned about fad diets because they can cause symptoms like dehydration, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headaches, constipation and inadequate nutrients that our bodies need.…

    In order to improve my current diet, I need to reduce my caloric intake to the 1500-calorie diet recommended on USDA’s SuperTracker. The most efficient way to do this is to eat healthier meals at home rather than unhealthy, easy to procure fast food. In addition, I exceed my sodium intake with 2,016 mg on average, 516 mg over the recommended amount. Due to harmful effects of high sodium intakes on blood pressure, a prominent risk factor for cardiovascular and kidney diseases, the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine established the Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) for Sodium at 2,300 mg. This indicates that I must lower my sodium intake as a precautionary measure (Higdon, Sodium (Chloride), 2001). Again, as mentioned above, the most proficient way to do this is by eliminating fast food out of my diet along with analyzing nutrition labels for high sodium content.…
