Nutrition and Diets
Storyboard Text
- Nutrition and Diets
- As this title states, this storyboard will talk about nutrition and diets, another key to total wellness. This will talk about diet fads, healthy vs unhealthy food, and obesity vs negative factors.
- In the previous storyboard, I talked about injuries, how to prevent them using the RICE method, body types, body composition, and why you should get daily checkups with your doctor.
- What is this storyboard?
- In order to figure out what is healthy, you must make sure to find nutrient-dense food, which has a high vitamin and mineral content such as whole grains and vegetables. However, unhealthy or empty-like foods don't have many nutrients and have high trans and saturated fats.
- You also have to make sure to eat enough proteins, carbs, and fat. The recommended ranges for these 3 things are as follows.Carbs: 45%-65% of total calorie intakeFat: 20%-35% of total calorie intakeProtein: 10%-35% of total calorie intake
- Healthy vs Unhealthy
- Foods advertisements can make the problems of obesity worse, despite the growing variety of foods offered. If your even 20% higher than you should be, problems such as stroke, breathing problems, and type 2 diabetes. Ads can make this worse.
- Not just ads, which infamously advertise foods containing high amounts of sugar, fructose corn syrup, and are additive-filled, but also peer pressure can negatively affect your food choices. Unhealthy food also affects you mentally, emotionally, socially, and physically. In fact, getting a healthier diet is actually costing a bit more than an unhealthy diet, about $1.50 more per day.
- Obesity vs Factors
- Fad diets are diets that are characterized by presenting fast weight loss in a short amount of time without exercise. Some of these diets also tell you that your losing fat, but in actuality, your losing water weight.
- Some infamous fad diets are listed here.Atkins: A diet resisting carbs and embracing proteins and fats.Tapeworm: A diet that has you consume a tapeworm in order to eat the foods you consume. This is a diet that at best doesn't work, and at worse, can be seriously damaging to your body/fatal.Paleo: A diet that promotes foods eaten by humans during the Paleolithic era.
