A. After studying nutrition science, you should be knowledgeable about nutrition guidelines and how nutrition can affect health. Please demonstrate what you have learned by explaining the following: Using terms and concepts that you have learned in this course, examine 8 aspects of your own diet, and explain any changes you may or may not make. For full credit, support each of your 8 choices with facts from the readings. (For example, currently, I rarely eat any nuts. So, I will start eating one ounce of nuts a day because it will improve my cholesterol level, which will reduce my risk for heart disease. Note: you may not use this example.) [32 points] B. Explain how nutrients affect disease prevention and management. Make your answer specific with examples. Link the nutrient or nutrients you discuss to a condition. (For example, vitamin C deficiency is linked to scurvy. Note: you may not use this example). For full credit, you must provide at least three examples of how nutrient levels can be related to disease prevention and management. [18 points]

Text: EXERCISE, FITNESS OR NUTRITION MISINFORMATION The area of fitness and nutrition has become a booming business in America. As consumers, you should not only be aware that problems exist but should know how to distinguish between health-promoting products and those that are fraudulent. Refer to Chapter 2 for more information on Evaluating Nutrition Information. The Chapter 2 PowerPoint also contains information on Nutrition misinformation. ASSIGNMENT: Search the Internet to find a website that offers nutrition information. Read the information at the site and identify any "red flags" for misinformation (see the list of characteristics in the passage called "Look for Red Flags" in Section 2.3 of your text). Evaluate the quality of the information presented on the website. Write a one-page (minimum), typed, summary (double-spaced) about the characteristics of the advertisement. Use 12-point, Courier font or a similar font. Be sure to name the product, manufacturer, etc., and guarantees offered. Discuss whether the use of this food or product might pose a danger to one's health. Identify the URL of the site and its sponsorship; summarize the information, including health-related claims; evaluate the site for bias; and search the site for any disclaimers. You are to determine whether the site is a reliable source of nutrition information and explain why it is or is not. List ways that the same results might be reached through proper exercise, fitness, or nutrition. Include the cost of the product or cost per serving if available and any shipping costs. **HINT: Be sure to give credit to any websites that you use as a reference.
