PART 1: Imagine there is a country or area in the world you would like to travel to or a culture you would like to know more about. Choose a culture/country/religion and develop and document a typical meal for your selection utilizing the appropriate food pyramid for that country/culture. The meal can be breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a celebratory meal. Please list the foods that are included in the meal. In the meal, you must list the nutritional content total for the entire meal. The nutritional content must include calories, carbohydrates, fat, protein, sodium, fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals. You can use the Supertracker/Food Tracker tool used in the first assignment to obtain this information easily (after putting in the data/meal, you can click on ″nutrient report″ which is right below the graph. This will give you all of the nutrient data to answer this question). You can do a screen shot of the extended nutritional content for the meal. You do not need to give me the nutrient content for each food item, just the content for the meal as a whole.
PART 2:
After you have created a meal plan answer the following questions, USING YOUR OWN WORDS to summarize:
1. What are the health benefits to this particular diet? Please answer this question and #2 based on the culture′s diet as a whole, not just the meal plan you developed. Please list at least 3 and describe what they are. Make sure to describe what the health benefits are. Don′t just tell me that the diet has high vegetable consumption. Tell me specifically why vegetables are a benefit to the body. What do the vitamins and minerals that vegetables are rich in do for the body to keep it healthy? Or why is the fiber found in vegetables healthy for the body?
2. Are there any deficiencies or overabundance of certain foods or nutrients, such as too much sodium, no vitamin C, not enough dairy, or very little protein? What are they and what are the health risks associated with them? Think about what each nutrient they are missing is for and describe what might happen if a person were deficient in that nutrient, whether it is a macronutrient or a micronutrient. Be specific. If a diet is high in sodium, what are the health risks associated with high sodium intake? Again, answer this looking at the diet as a whole, not just the meal that you planned. No diet is perfect (even the Mediterranean diet), there are always deficiencies. Please list at least 3.
3. Are there foods that are eaten every day? Give examples and why. 4. Are there any foods that are forbidden? Give examples and why.
5. Are there special foods for celebrations or special occasions? Describe the significance of the celebratory food. This assignment is worth 50 points. Cultures/Countries/Religions to choose from:
