Following a healthy diet is not simple even the very careful and the most disciplined consumers are not fully in control of what they eat (De la Peña 42).   Due to a high number of food choices, choosing what to eat comes automatically. This automatic food selection makes people to mind less what they consume and their sources. According to studies carried, what, when and how much we consume is determined by subtle forces outside our awareness.  Pollan claims that these forces can cause us to eat taking advantage of biological, psychological, social and economic weakness. This is clear evidence why some people are overweight

In the novel “Crime and Punishment” by Fyodor Dostoevsky, Raskolnikov is the protagonist and main character throughout the plot. In order to highlight specific traits within Raskolnikov’s character, Dostoevsky uses Svidrigailov as a foil. Although both of these characters have committed crimes, Svidrigailov does so without feeling remorse for his actions. Svidrigailov toys with others emphasizing the part of Raskolnikov that regrets the actions of his crime and the side that feels the need to fess up for his actions. Unlike Raskolnikov, by the end of the novel Svidrigailov is not able to find a purpose to like anymore and ends his own life. The actions and emotions portrayed through Raskolnikov and Svidrigailov instigate the theme of alienation

In today’s society, most people plan their daily meals around their busy schedules. Food plays an important role in our lives and most just rely on fast food because it is quicker and easier. However, devouring fast food is one of the worst choices you can make. In order to maintain proper health and prevent numerous illnesses and diseases, consuming healthy homemade meals is definitely a more ideal choice. According to a recent study, “when people cook most of their meals at home, they consume fewer carbohydrates, less sugar and less fat than those who cook less or not at all – even if they are not trying to lose weight” (Wolfson). Because many people work full time and get home very late, people continue to eat it without being aware of how unhealthy it is for you and the health risks that it can eventually bring on. Based on the demand for quality food choices of today’s generation, it is important to compare and contrast the effects of preparing healthy, homemade meals versus relying on fast food restaurants for daily eats.

Winston smith, the main protagonist in George Orwell’s novel, NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR, wrestles with oppression in Oceania, a place where the Party scrutinizes human actions with ever-watchful Big Brother. Defying a ban on individuality, Winston dares to express his thoughts in a diary and pursues a relationship with Julia. These criminal deeds bring Winston into the eye of the opposition, who then must reform the nonconformist. Orwell achieves by warning us of totalitarian regimes, through his definition of dystopia shaped by the events he had witnessed. He used the book he wrote as a medium to show the readers what would happen under totalitarian rule. Orwell would be disturbed to how 2017 is, this is due to having CCTV cameras on about every corner in major cities, a technology not around in the time that the book was published. However he would also be proud to see that countries like America and Australia are a socialist country and not under the totalitarian rule. Within this text the themes of totalitarianism, reality check, sex, love and loyalty and the individual vs collective identity.

The journal “ From mindless eating to mindlessly eating better” discusses how certain environmental factors such as; size, shape, color and layout contribute to the amount of food a person consumes. A point made in this journal was that these factors influence our eating behavior by increasing the amount we eat and decreasing our observation on how much we are consuming. Another point made in the journal was that education on nutrition would be simply ineffective in reversing our eating behaviors. Lastly, the journal provided results that suggest principles that can help people overcome mindless eating by making small changes that can help diminish bad eating habits.

The good about the study of the design is that it involved a large experimental group which collected much more data than a smaller sample size. Also the dependent variables were monitored by the scientists conducting the experiment which shows that there would be no bias in the recording of the results (Research Methods in Psychology Lecture, Sept. 2). One more good thing about the study was that it was over a significant amount of time, which can show the long term effects. The bad of the study is that each participant in the experiment monitored their own independent variable which can cause a little bias which in turn can skew the results. Another potentially bad part of the study was that it didn't say that the researchers monitored other variables that could have affected the results, for example the diets of all participants (Sandra Sluts & Kenneth Hess, Science Buddies). If the independent variable was also monitored by the researchers then the experiment would provide much more accurate results. Also if the researchers controlled other factors then the results would also be more

The schisms of the Catholic Church is instrumental in creating a platform that sparks the Reformation and eventually establishes the Protestant Church. Because of the stronghold Christianity has and its ability to permeate within the confines of the Roman Empire, leaders decide to befriend Christians and seek their support. With this in mind, believers are tolerated and eventually, Theodosius I make Christianity the state religion of the Empire and forbids the worship of pagan gods. After Theodosius’ rule the Empire split, but the church maintains its relevance in both the West and the East (Chase, Jacob, Jacob, & Von Laue, 2013, p. 172).

When eating habits and changing diets are certainly having an impact on weight problems, for example, “decline in the consumption of fresh vegetables and increase in the consumption of processed vegetables”

Every day while sitting on the couch eat a burger, and soon many people learn what the obesity hype is all about. Fast food companies are advertising more food for less money with fast service. The media tends to change images for their target customers, to make the food more appealing to those that are watching. Laziness is one of the main causes of obesity in our country. Obesity in the United States is at a high due to the increasing fast food chains, media influence, and a lack of exercise. The idea of having a meal made for them in less than five minutes is somewhat exciting to the view of many individuals.” fast food firms introduced these alternative meals in response to changing consumer tastes”(Buchholz). Many fast food stores offer the customer fast service, and a great tasting meal. They provide their service with a smile and a meal that can cost less than 10 dollars. When people mix poor diet with poor

Although the investigation was able to provide more knowledge and understanding regarding the relationships between energy, activity levels and carbohydrate intake in order to contribute towards a solution to the problem of obesity, there were many limitations to this experiment that needed to be considered. For the personal data, the dietary observations collected over the two experimental days were not substantial to represent their lifestyle as a whole. Studies led by Burke et al., (2001) demonstrated that individuals can make inaccurate reports in various ways such as altering their dietary intake during period of recording, omitting or underestimating their intake and quantification errors of their consumption. As the group data was a collation of individual’s two-day dietary records, variability and inaccuracy increased considering the wide range of influences each individual may have been subjected to. There were 359 females and 195 males involved in the

Research shows the opposite, eating food slowly is actually the way one should eat. A person needs to take care of their body, and if a person eats fast, the food is not digesting well and that is when many children, or adults become obese. Also when a person eats their food slowly, a person can enjoy

Tendency to obesity eating fast food was proven by many experiments. For example, Indian experts propose, there is ratio between growing malnutrition and obesity.

Data from a nationally representative survey shown that fast
