• “The act or process of nourishing or being
nourished.” (“Nutrition | Define”)
• “Nutrition is the science that studies the
process by which living organisms acquire
all the things that are necessary for them
to live and grow.” (“What Is Nutrition”)
• “Never shop when you’re hungry. This way
you won’t pick out unhealthy choices
because they look good at the moment.”
(“How to Make Healthy Food Choices”)
• “Get rid of the unhealthy foods in your
home. If they aren’t around, you won’t be
tempted to eat them.” (“How to Make
Healthy Food Choices”)
• Dieting is not the answer to improving your nutrition because you
are not improving your health you are endangering your health. You
are endangering your health because when you are dieting your
body is not getting the nutrition and the healthy foods that it should
be getting. “Eating a healthy diet that includes all of the food groups,
eating balanced meals throughout the day and NOT skipping meals,
keeping yourself well-hydrated, getting plenty of sleep and
consistent training should help you to improve your stamina.
(“Nutrition & Dieting”)
• “Once you start to “diet,” there is a preoccupation with
food instead of the idea of healthy eating. You need to
be more aware of nutrition and proper food options.”
(Raha)
• “You can lose weight without hurting your body by eating all the
foods that you should be eating. Such as all the vegetables that you
should be eating and all the right amounts of food. “Make an
appointment with your doctor. Tell him about your weight-loss goals
and ask for advice on how to go about dropping pounds. He can
help you determine a safe pace and ensure that you do not do
anything that may harm your health. Let him know about any
conditions or injuries you have, as well as any medications you are
on.” (“How Can I Lose Weight Without Hurting Myself”).
• “nutritional food value of grapes can help you improve your health
in a variety of different ways. Though you do have the option of
eating grapes either cooked or raw, you probably want to stick with
eating raw grapes as they taste better and contain all of the nutrients
that you'll need to stay healthy. Raw grapes are also a quick and
easy snack to substitute into your diet over less healthy options like
cookies and candies”. (“The Nutritional Food Value”)
• There are all different kinds of nutritional needs for
different age groups. “Children develop a natural
preference for the foods they enjoy the most, so the
challenge is to make healthy choices appealing. No
matter how good your intentions, trying to convince your
eight-year-old that an apple is as sweet a treat as a
cookie is not a recipe for success.” (“Nutrition for
Children”)
• “Adults: calcium, potassium, fiber, magnesium, and
vitamins A (as carotenoids), C, and E,
• Children and adolescents: calcium, potassium, fiber,
magnesium, and vitamin E,
• Specific population groups (see below): vitamin B12,
iron, folic acid, and vitamins E and D”( “Chapter 2
Adequate”)
• “With teenagers, it works best to teach them how
to make better choices (even if they are not
perfect choices) whether they are eating at
home, school or in restaurants. Improving eating
habits among teens is crucially important for two
reasons (among others): building strong
bones and preventing obesity.” (“Teen
Nutrition”)
• “include nutritional foods rich in vitamins and
fiber. Teens should be encouraged to eat fruits
and vegetables daily.” (Gilani)
• “Healthful, balanced diets for teens consist of
foods from the four main food groups. Daily
nutrition should come from whole grains, lean
meats and other proteins, fruits and vegetables
and low-fat dairy products. A healthful diet that
will ensure maintaining a good weight also is low
in saturated and trans fats, salt, cholesterol and
added sugar.” (“Balanced Diets For
Teenagers”).
• “If you eat too much salt or sodium in your diet,
then you may develop some health conditions.”
(high sodium foods)
• “Your body needs certain nutrients to feel well as you go
through each day. The most important meal is breakfast,
even though it's probably the most difficult for many
teenagers. Breakfast is even more important if you aren't
eating lunch on a regular basis, and are waiting until
after school or until dinner to eat.” (healthy eating tips for
teens)
• “People skip breakfast thinking they're cutting calories,
but by mid-morning and lunch, that person is starved”.
"Breakfast skippers replace calories during the day with
mindless nibbling, bingeing at lunch and dinner.”( lose
