How can we educate people more about good nutrition?

---

With all the obesity and eating disorders going on, it seems like maybe we're not educated about nutrition and exercise enough to eat healthy .I know for a fact that they didn't teach us squat about nutrition or weight loss in public school, which is in my opinion a major concern.
But we already have good, healthy food that you can grow in your backyard : fruit and veggies :)
Thanks, I didn't know about Michelle Obama!! That is an awesome thing she is doing.
I think it's the FDA's and parents' fault, really. They try to get schools to serve healthier lunches (which, by many standards, are still not very healthy.) Additionally, excessive attention is paid to Calories, while very little is paid to what TYPE of Calories are being consumed (i.e. protein, carbohydrates, fats).

The harm of fat is also grossly overestimated, and importance of avoiding simple carbs hardly mentioned at all (most people don't know that sugars are simple carbs, let alone that many of their favorite non-sugary foods also contain simple carbs).

I asked my school why we can't be served whole milk, considering that fat-free milk contains as much as 10 more grams (roughly 2.5 teaspoons) more sugar than whole milk. They said that they have no control over what they feed us.

The other day, we had a school-wide (girls and boys separated) assembly (I'm a senior in high school), where we were handed a tiny flyer telling us how to "eat healthily." It involved a number of moronic comments, including living a low-fat lifestyle with NO MENTION of sugar.

I admit that not everyone has the capacity or desire to understand how their bodies function, but everyone should at least be given the opportunity. Even health classes don't give any justice to a truly proper diet. They make it sound as if you can eat as much of your favorite desert as you'd like, as long as you get your servings of fruits and vegetables, and DON'T EXCEED 2,000 CALORIES.

I can say for a fact that my base metabolic rate is around 2,500 Calories, and that is just the amount I need to SURVIVE with zero exercise while maintaining the same weight.

With the amount of exercise I do (1 hour a day, roughly), I need at least 3,000 Calories a day. Factor in my desire to gain muscle, and I need to eat as much as 4,000 Calories a day.

Education does nothing for people that have not opened themselves up to learning. People need to have a desire to read about it, learn about it, and change their lifestyles.

A large part of it is also parents and how they feed their children. I know kids who have been raised on hamburgers and cheap food, who now think that they can eat McDonalds for the rest of their lives because they haven't gotten pudgy at the age of 17 or 18.

I also know kids who claim that cigarettes increase their metabolisms to the extent that they can eat significantly more. I think much hope is lost, and we'd frankly be better off with many of these idiots dying. If someone doesn't respect his or her body to that great of a degree, I doubt the person's capacity of respecting anyone else.

To finish off on a completely misanthropic and cynical note, some people really should not breath.  (+ info)

Do you think meat and general ignorance of nutrition has led to so many illnesses and conditions?

---

depression, acne, etc. were never really found amongst Aboriginal peoples. With all the chemicals, dyes, processing, pasteurizations, abuse, and mutiliation done to foods and animals and pesticides and chemicals added to veggies & fruits we wonder why illnesses like cancer, swine flu, obesity, and this circus of mental disorders is worse than ever before?
Do you have a link or a reference for your claim that 'Aboriginal peoples' didn't suffer from depression?

Just to pick one of the illnesses you mention - there hasn't been a significant increase in the number of cancer cases in recent years or decades. And nobody knows the causes of cancer - there is no scientific evidence to link meat, diet in general or modern day chemicals to cancer, which is an ancient disease that has been around for as long as humankind and longer.

It is received wisdom on this board that veg*nism reduces the risk of cancer, but there isn't any actual scientific proof of that.

I've been vegetarian most of my life and had been vegan for several years- eating a largely organic diet, minimal junk food and plenty of raw stuff - when I was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer.

=======================

The asker of this question has accused me by email of ''slandering vegetarian or vegans or discouraging ppl of it'' in this answer, told me to ''stop and think that maybe your cancer was a unique situation'' (as I told her, through cancer support networks I have met 3 other vegans with cancer and dozens of vegetarians with cancer), and suggested that my cancer '' can be cured if you stop being negative''.

And she says '' I know I won't get cancer or anything else b/c i work hard not to''. Actually, even by her own dubious figures - she says vegetarians are 40% less likely to get cancer than meat-eaters - more than one in six vegetarian women and more than one in four vegetarian men will develop cancer at some time in their lives.

Thank goodness this kind of smugness and, arrogance and certainty that one is right usually wears off sometime before the age of 30. Nauseating while it lasts though.  (+ info)

What are some nutrition disorders? Anyone here know about health?

---

Hi, I want to switch lunch periods really badly but I need a medical excuse (there's 9 periods a day at my high school, I have 8th period lunch but want to switch to 5th period). Do you know any medical conditions (besides diabetes) that might be reason enough for me to switch lunch periods? Like why I shouldn't eat lunch so late in the day? Thanks. (Oh, and please don't tell me I shouldn't lie about that stuff, I have to switch, trust me, I just have to).

Oh, and I came up with being anemic as one (I'm anemic anyways so that's not a lie). Would that work? Thanks.
i would use the anemic excuse, just go to the nurses a bunch of days in a row and say you feel really weak and faint. Add dizzy in to. then just say everytime i eat i feel better.  (+ info)

How does poor nutrition affect a childs ability to learn?

---

Hello. My name is Aleksandr Petrovykh and I am a senior in high school. To graduate we need to do a project and write a paper. For the paper we need to do a few interviews. My project is on nutrition so I was wondering if you could answer a few questions that I have.

How does poor nutrition affect a Childs ability to learn?

Can poor nutrition leave irreplaceable damage?

What are the needed nutrients for the mind to grow?
Hello Aleksandr Petrovykh,

The Effects of Poor Nutrition and Health on Learning is a great topic for discussion, here you can find the details in http://ltc.umanitoba.ca/wiki/The_Effects_of_Poor_Nutrition_and_Health_on_Learning  (+ info)

How important is nutrition to teens? And does the prospect of health problems later in life matter now?

---

Not many people know a lot about good nutrition. And I mean really know. Most teens aren't even required to take a basic nutrition class in school. However, nutrition is the one thing in life that affects your whole life. Good or bad nutrition habits can affect your emotions, your your physical features including your skin, hair and bodyshape, and even how you treat others. Your nutrition habits will also have major effects on your health now and in the future. So how important is nutrition in your life?
Nutrition is hugely important in my life. Fresh fruit and veges and leane red meat. Lots of fish and turkey for protein. My body is a temple and I need to treat it right to keep my insides healthy. I also try to eat food witha high water content, water melons and so on. Fresh and natural is the key to a good inside. But if there is more I need to know please let me know.

I hope I answered you question You can tell how unhealthy you are by your bowel movements and its consitance( I know gross) but its true. As a 28 year old it is a high priority to keep in peak physical fitness. Although not a teen I still consider ymself as excited and energetic as a teen. Due to good nutrition of course:)  (+ info)

What role does nutrition play in feelings after exercise?

---

I eat a healthy diet with fruits and vegetables and it is fairly balanced. I also think I eat enough. Do i need to worry about proper nutrition if I exercise at a higher intensity such as running for up to 25 minutes? Is it possible to get exercise migraines if you don't have proper nutrition?
Yes you can get a migraine from over exertion. Migraines can come from cutting something out of your diet. Your migranes could also be coming from not having enough water flowing through your blood. Try drinking more water and see if your migraines go away.  (+ info)
