Evidently, the people who are a part of the Nutritional community are focused on living a healthy and lasting life. For example, a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and grain products that contain dietary fiber, particularly soluble fiber, and low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease (Food). Whether they would like to gain, lose, or maintain their weight they refer to this label which is ultimately the deciding factor as to whether or not they will purchase/use the product.

According to American Law, foods are allowed to affect the “structure and function” of the body, so much time as they do not claim to treat disease. Consumers, therefore have to figure out for themselves what works and what does not, especially when nutritional claims are biased.

The natural products health industry is a very lucrative one. In 2008, it expanded by 8% to $270B despite the economic downturn that rocked many industries. The industry is still on the rise throughout the world. As seen in the table below, it is expected to experience

Many advertisements nowadays don’t advertise objects with the verity of their quality. Rather, they get someone in the famous industry to advertise their product so the people that are watching see their favorite famous person and want to buy it because they use it. When most of the people that promote it don’t use it, or it never truly works as they say, and another way they advertise is through foods.

In 2000, the US Food and Drug Administration issued a health claim which states that consuming foods containing plant sterol and stanol esters along with other low cholesterol and saturated fat foods can reduce the risk of coronary heart disease (Jones, Vanstone, Raeini-Sarjaz, & St-Onge, 2003). Today, many functional foods in the form of margarines, spread, yogurt, and others, have been enriched with phytosterols and advocated as being able to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Phytosterols have been known for its cholesterol-lowering effect by blocking absorption of cholesterol in the intestines. However, there are controversies surrounding the efficacy of phytosetrol that are enriched in foods in reducing cholesterol levels. Many studies have also demonstrated the efficacy of phytosterol-enriched foods. Vásquez-Trespalacios and Romero-Palacio (2014) and Amundsen, Ose, Nenseter, and Ntanios (2002) have demonstrated the efficacy of phytosterol-enriched foods in reducing total and LDL-cholesterol levels. However, there are also many studies that show otherwise. For example, Jones et al. (2003) and Weingärtner et al. (2016) have shown that phytosterol-supplemented foods did not have any effect on total and LDL-cholesterol levels. The debate regarding the efficacy of phytosterol in functional foods is crucial as phytosterol-enriched foods can potentially be a solution to a continuous increase in population suffering from cardiovascular diseases. The

Pollan claims that most studies seek out a single nutrient rather than focusing on these three nutritional facts because there is a great deal of money tied up in highly processed foods and made in treating the Western diseases. Because nutritional science is relatively new, there is a great deal of uncertainty in its findings. Pollan explains that this uncertainty has become a marketing strategy that allows food corporations to market their food as healthy according to the results of the latest study of a nutritional

In the fall of my junior year, while attending a Wella hair product education class, I discovered that I could combine my love of cosmetology and my interest in chemistry by becoming a cosmetic chemist. Over the past two years my passion for cosmetology has grown. I believe that I will always be involved in cosmetology in some capacity. By attending a cosmetology program I have been given a good foundation in the cosmetic chemistry field. In order to formulate successful products one needs to do a lot more than understand product formulation. One needs to consider the structure of the hair, what the product will do to strengthen the cortex, how it will affect the color under the hair’s cuticle. I see my cosmetology education as a unique tool that help me along the way to reach my

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to make changes for the nutrition labeling of traditional foods and dietary supplements that will help consumers to maintain healthy dietary practices. There have been many changes related to nutrition regulations, which include the declaration of nutrients, the format of nutrition labeling, and permit for particular specified products to be exempt from nutrition labeling. FDA is revising it in order to provide updated nutrition information on labels and improve how the nutrition information is introduced to consumers. Accordingly, FDA made changes to the dietary supplement products’ labeling as well.

Siegfried Gurshe, a pioneer of the Canadian health food industry, elaborates the need for more natural food, in its living state, in his article “Our Food Is Killing Us!”. In his article, he educates the reader on how dieticians and nutritionists compose formulas for the need of additional “special” vitamins, herbs and minerals to its already “dead” foods (Gurshe 126). According to the producers of these new and improved manufactured foodstuffs, their products help correlate with the newest diet craze, such as the high protein diet. Food industries often times endorse these diets in order to promote the sale of their new diet creations, which are usually ineffective because manufactured and refined foods are already considered dead and lack

Research shows that there are approximately one million Americans who are 100% vegan (Harris Interactive Service Bureau, 2013). It is unfortunate that the majority of the population is missing out on the opportunity to easily better their health and wellness, especially when the rate of heart disease, obesity, and diabetes has drastically increased over the last fifty years. It is completely within one’s power to prevent those specific illnesses and diseases, as well as many others. Learning about one’s body and what nutrition it actually needs to function is the most important knowledge to obtain when one is trying to better his or her health. Too often, the foods ingested as a population are lacking in essential ingredients which would nourish everyone’s bodies in the most efficient way. In the long run, humans will deteriorate at a much faster pace if they lacked the proper diet throughout life. In order for a person to maintain his or her best overall health, he or she needs to choose a plant-based diet which focuses on a surplus of fruits and vegetables while excluding animal proteins and processed foods.
