Benefits Of A Healthy Meal

I have always had a passion for education and being at Saint Vincent Academy, I have grown into a passionate young woman. Academically, I have been exposed to many different classes such as American History, Women's History, Modern History, a very graphic freshman year health class, and Human Anatomy and Physiology. Each class has helped me in forming my passion of helping people and the ability to empathize. Through my history classes, I have learned about the need to help others and through my science classes, I have come to the decision to become a nutritionist/ registered dietician. My goal as a nutritionist is to help people take better care of themselves and it will start by acknowledging them on what they put into their body's and the

Before FNU 206 Introduction to Nutrition and Dietetics, I only had an idea of what I wanted to do as a Registered Dietitian, but not exactly how to reach that goal. After taking this class, Dr. Adkins has given me direction as to how to find my first destination. The Registered Dietitian career is not like being a doctor; there is no specific practice to study in school and stay as that type of specially trained practice. There are certain practices and patients to attend to as a Registered Dietitian, however my first job can be in a clinical setting with cancer patients as supposed to a company focused on wellness of the body. The same situation applies before becoming certified when I must put those hours of experience in. This intrigued

This internship has giving me the chance to observe and witness firsthand the daily activates of a dietitian. Also I have seen how rewarding a dietitian’s career can be in helping others obtain their goals for a healthier life. Over the semester I was able to watch one successful client lose over 25 pounds and reverse her prediabetes health parameters. This has truly shown me that this is the right career for me because I want a job that I can help other. Before I started this internship I wanted to observe nutrition counseling and learn how to effectively use it. Another goal I had for my internship was to practice the nutritional skill I acquired in my undergraduate curriculum. Over the semester I was able to practice menu planning, observe nutrition counseling, nutrition assessment, and create nutrition education handouts. This internship has also, reinforced my dream and goal of owning my own nutritional business. Being able to experience the entrepreneurial aspect of a dietitian with Texas Total Health has taught me so much and opened my eyes to what I need to do to obtain my goal later in life. I didn’t truly have a perspective of all the work you have to put into your own business until this internship. However after this experience I have realized that I know that I do have what it takes to fulfill my

As a dietitian’s assistant, I organized the nutrition and allergy database for over 1,000 food and beverage items served through the University's food service system. My work helped students with food allergies avoid consuming allergy-containing foods and enabled more students to make healthier choices at the campus eateries. In addition, as a cooperative extension practicum student I. My articles were distributed to communities all across the state of Georgia. my WIC clients are positively impacted by my work in ways such as: decreasing rates of overweight and obese children and increasing breastfeeding rates. My practice and experience combined with a responsible and self-reliant nature will allow me to contribute to the dietetic profession to further build the development, expansion and enhancement of community organizations and initiatives. Furthermore, I will be able to contribute by utilizing my research, volunteer and professional dietetic background to effectively communicate in a way that integrates dietetic concepts from all areas of

Montclair State University and I posses a common vision. I, like MSU believe in the power of thinking critically and acting ethically in every possible aspect of my life. I have chosen to study Nutrition at Montclair because I want to help people make educated lifestyle choices and develop healthy habits, which has always been a dream of mine. Because I intend to pursue a career in dietetics, I see Montclair State University as an ideal place for me. Offering impressive coursework and programs that will quench my thirst for knowledge, this university will prepare me for a dietetic internship and provide me the confidence of knowing that I would be getting an excellent education in nutrition at a top school with consistently high ratings.

The occupation of a Registered Dietician (RD) can often be mistaken by the occupation of a Nutritionist. Many individuals tend to disregard the fact that both career titles involve particular education procedures, distinct credentials and licensing requirements, different salaries, and unique work environments. The first main difference of an RD and Nutritionist is the schooling involved for both. According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, “Registered dietitians are required to complete a formal education program that results in at least a baccalaureate degree. This program must be approved by the Dietetics’ Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND) and include a practical component performed in a career-related

Getting a Bachelors of Science in Nutrition is a valuable investment. There are different careers to choose from that include clinical, corporate, food service, government and military service. In nutrition, the more experienced the person is the better the opportunities. Therefore, as a nutrition undergraduate student, I plan to build my experience to be a competitive applicant for the careers I wish to work for, which are a nutrition lecturer, nutrition marketing business partner, or nutrition researcher.

My passion for health and wellness began at a very young age. I spent my time after school involved in athletics even from the early age of four. I have always been intrigued by food and the affects that it has on the human body, both positively and negatively. This passion for a healthy and active lifestyle was deepened as I aged and gained worldly experiences of nutrition throughout my childhood. Although I already had passion for nutrition and health, it was when my father was diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease that set my dream of working with food into motion. Through my father’s diagnosis I decided that my true calling is to help treat others who are afflicted with disease states or injuries through nutrition. Realizing I could combine my passion

All across America people choose whether to eat healthy or unhealthy. How can we make healthier choices about what we eat? I chose this because I think that we all should in some way change our eating habits. Making healthy food choices means taking a close look at your current eating habits, and making small changes that add up to new habits and better nutrition. For example, you can eat smaller portion sizes and cut back on eating certain foods or food types. It’s not as if you don’t know which foods are healthy and which ones aren’t. But sometimes it’s difficult to make the right food choices when you’re constantly faced with temptation or don’t have a plan. Not only do you have to make food choices every time you eat a meal or a snack, you’re actually making food choices all day long. Maintaining a healthy diet is much easier than you think, if you know how to make smart food choices. A strong will does not have any problems to go through a food change. The essays that I chose for this are “Eat Food: Food Defined” by Michael Pollan, “The pleasure of Eating” by Wendell Berry, “The Business Case for Healthier Food Options” by Michelle Obama, and “Eating Made simple” by Marion Nestle.

When I started my college journey I wasn’t sure how, but I knew I wanted to help people. After completing a nutrition course and I was amazed by the impact that nutrition has on the human body. It was then when I decided to pursue a career in Dietetics, I wanted mycareer to be applicable to my personal life. because I wanted to study something that would be applicable to my daily life. My family has struggled with Hypertension and Diabetes for a number of years, which also motivates me to learn about disease prevention through nutrition. I am passionate about nutrition and helping others achieve a healthy lifestyle and wellbeing through a healthy well balanced diet. I enjoy being exposed to new things that can expand my knowledge (move to a

In this speech, I will outline the job description, preparation, the advantages and disadvantages of a career in Diet and Nutrition. Recent statistics published by the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition, indicate that more 12.5 million adults and children suffer from obesity in the United States. By 2030, approximately 115 million adults are expected to be obese. This figure represents nearly half of the adult population in America. To prevent the prevalence of obesity in our nation, many individuals and businesses are hiring preventive health care professionals, such as nutritionists and registered dietitians.

Dieting, everybody does it nowadays. But is it as good as everyone hopes? Healthful food from the store often seems more healthy than it actually is. The industry tricks people by advertising false information. It is important that people really know what they eat, so they can eat as healthy as they actually want. However, not every piece of healthful food is unhealthy, no one will claim something like that. But dieting by drinking fruit juices from the store instead of soda and eating fat-free products from the supermarket will not improve the well-being of people (Gunnars, 2014b). In the following sections will be explained why those products are not healthy.

I believe that eating healthy can teach a person discipline in life. This and exercising have been my new lifestyle for now a year because I have seen benefits of living a healthy life. I live by this motto every day. Learning how to live clean or healthy is not easy at all; first people have to do research about what foods can, and cannot be eaten. Then, it’s learning what vitamins, nutrients and properties the body needs to make the metabolism go fast. I started to eat healthy because it can add to any person 10 years of life. During the process of assimilating to my new style, I learned a lot of things that now are very helpful to me. Even though the only point of eating healthy was to reduce my body fat percentage, I also learned how to manage my time, the difference between quantity and quality, and also how to resist temptations, like saying “NO” to junk food.

What exactly do I perceive as health food? Health food is something that is raw or unpreserved, it is fresh from its’ natural environment. Fruits and vegetables straight from the ground or trees, lean meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, grains and legumes are all health foods, if prepared and portioned correctly. Healthy foods supply us with what we need to repair and sustain our bodies. Eating health food can provide us with positive physical and mental energy throughout our day. There are a few people who eat healthy food, still yet complain of feeling tired, moody, or irritable. This may be due to the fact of not getting enough nutrients during our meals because food is not being preparing in the correct ways, improper combining, or eating them during the wrong times of the day. The practice of trying to eat the right foods at the right time, with the correct portions and best preparation might sound like a burden for some, but can easily become a simple habit like it is for others. With some basic preparation, portion combining and meal timing strategies and tips, you may come to enjoy eating healthy. Once you start eating healthy you will increase your overall energy, while decreasing your stress, and improving your sleep, which overall will benefit your daily well-being.
