In addition to submitting the Personal Diet Analysis: Protein and Fats Template, use the following bolded headings to guide your answers to the questions below:
1. Explain how the foods you consume contribute positively or negatively to your diet and health, highlighting at least 2 specific examples. Demonstrate your understanding of the connection between your chosen food and resulting health consequences.
2. Discuss the likelihood and ease of actually making the suggested changes noted in the above table. Explain your answer. If you don’t need to make changes because you met the requirements, be sure you completely filled out the table above and discuss here what you are doing right to meet your nutritional needs.
As you complete this assignment, consider protein content, types of fat, nutrient density, and calories in your discussion. This is your opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of the subject matter. General broad answers do not earn as many points as specific examples. Multiple, specific, and applicable suggestions for improvement help demonstrate your mastery of the material and your understanding of how to manipulate a diet.
Be sure to use one of the textbooks and at least one other scholarly journal to support your answers. (Be sure to use a total of two references.) In addition to the assigned reading, you may use any of the Appendices in the back of the textbook for ideas.
Review the grading rubric before writing the analysis so you know how points are earned for this assignment. The two follow up responses require 1-1/2 pages of double spaced material, in addition to the chart.
All citations must be in current AMA format.
Please note: You will use the data from the MyDietAnalysis Report Assignment ONLY. No credit will be given for this assignment unless the MyDietAnalysis Report Assignment has been submitted.
Please note: The point of the assignment is to demonstrate your understanding of the nutrients in depth, so if you met all the requirements or are on a special diet prescribed by a physician that is affecting your food intake, you must still provide specific and detailed info in all the columns on the assignment’s template. No student will earn full credit by indicating “N/A” (not applicable to me). Vague responses will not earn full credit. Personal sceneios may be discussed in the discussion questions on the template.
