Calorie Needs BEE Calculation: 0.9 cal x kg x 24 hours 1 x 74.09 x 24 = 1778.18 --> 1778 calories

TEE Calculation: 1178.18 x 1.5 (Average activity) = 2667.27 --> 2667 calories

BMI (Body Mass Index)
a. Convert weight in pounds to kg. Divide pounds by 2.2 1 lb = 0.4536 kg 163 x 0.4536 = 73.9368 73.9368 / 2.2 = 33.60

b. Convert height in inches to meters. Divide inches by 39.4 1 inch = 0.0254 meters 66 x 0.0254 = 1.6764 meters 1.674 / 39.4 = 0.0425

c. Divide kg by meters sqaures (kg / m squared) 33.60 / 0.0425 squared = 18602.07

It was an eye opener in many ways. I see that health is a very big issue, especially considering the fact the the United States has the highest percent of obesity in the world. So from now on, I will definitely watch what I eat. Health should be in everyone's top priority. I will be sure cut back on all of the unhealthy snacks, sodas, salt, and fast food. It's not healthy in any type of way. In the future, I will suggest to a healthy diet to my family, friends, and everyone else. Eating healthy is very important and no one should choose to go down the wrong path when it comes to their health. Nutrition facts are extremely important as well. You have to watch the carbs, sodium, calories, and fat. Ignoring nutrition is a bad choice. Without the vitamins, minerals and other important nutrients your body gets from healthy foods, your immune system will become weak and you will eventually become very sick. There are so many amazing things happening in your body every day, without you even thinking about it. So eating well is a good way of thanking your body and helping it a bit along the way. A balanced diet is extremely important, while poor dietary practices are always responsible for all sorts of problems and diseases. Good nutrition can also provide advantages to our body in various times and occasions. So, for an endless list of nutrition is very

    In this lab, we dissolved a calcium-enriched tablet and participate the calcium ion as calcium carbonate. Our purpose is to determine the masses of calcium carbonate and calcium ion, to determine the mass percent of calcium ion in the tablet and to compare the masses and the percent with the listed tablet ingredients. This time we used a 150mL beaker, analytical balance, forceps, a 50mL graduated cylinder, a glass rod, beaker tongs, a hot plate, two 16 x 125-mm test tubes, centrifuge, a medicine dropper, a filter paper, a filter funnel, a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask, a watch glass, a drying oven, a spatula and a red litmus paper. The chemicals we need were 20mL of 2.0M HCl, a calcium-enriched tablet and 25mL of 1.0M Na2CO3 solution.…

    Figure 1: Titration curve of 0.160 grams of an unknown diprotic acid that was dissociated in distilled water. Shown is the pH versus the volume in milliliters of 0.1 M NaOH, a strong base, added to the solution. The initial pH reading of the solution was a pH of 2.60. Although the pH of the ½ equivalence point was unknown, it could be estimated by halving the volume of NaOH used at the first equivalence point. At the first equivalence point, 13.63 milliliters of NaOH had been added to the unknown acid solution.…

    Your teacher will demonstrate for the class the reaction of metallic copper with concentrated nitric acid, HNO3. This must be done in the fume hood. (Caution: Avoid breathing poisonous gases. Avoid contact of skin with nitric acid. It burns skin and clothing.) One student will be asked to feel the side of the demonstration beaker and report to the group. The products formed are copper(II) nitrate solution, Cu(NO3)2(aq), and nitrogen dioxide gas, NO2(g).…

    In order to describe the molar volume of pure water the equation V_3=M_3⁄ρ_(3 ) is used, whereas those of sodium nitrate and the polyether compound poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) are shown by V_1=V_(∅_1)^∞and V_1= V_(∅_2)^∞. In these two equations, V_(∅_1)^∞ and V_(∅_2)^∞ which are the apparent molar volumes at infinite dilution of sodium nitrate and poly(ethylene glycol), must be computed on the basis of data on apparent molal volume (V_∅). The following equation shows the relation of the V_∅ of a binary solution with density, Equation 1…

    In the first process of the lab, you measure the mass of water transferred from a buret to a beaker, to determine the experimental mass of the water, and the volume of the water collected. We measured the temperature of the water so we could calculate the density of the water, which enabled us to calculate the actual volume of water, by using the density and the measured volume of water. To determine the percent error, we had to subtract the actual volume of water by the experimental volume of water transferred from the buret to the beaker, and then divided it by the actual volume and multiplied it by 100. In the second process, you perform the same steps you did for the buret, but instead, you use a 5.00mL or 10.00mL pipet. You repeated each…

    I reexamined the foods i've been consuming and became astounded. Looking at something as classic as bread, a food that used to contain only a few ingredients, now contains dozens. The effects of the industrialization are all around us, especially in our food. I was unaware that products that make health claims aren't exactly healthy and was surprised to find all of the tricks and loopholes the FDA allows. The rules regarding wording are ambiguous, thus making the health claims on foods almost frivolous. This book examined the diet fads of the past in America such as when margarine was considered to be healthier than butter. I’ve learned that we come up with a new diet plan and find “stunning” data that will better our health all the time, but our health has yet to make a drastic improvement. While we continue to consume the Western Diet, we look for ways to outsmart it rather than do the obvious thing and move away from it. Ultimately, I came away from the book with far more knowledge then when I entered. The book offered great incite into the food industry and how it all works. I am glad I read this book and will definitely implement some lessons into my life.…

    This professional meeting relates to Dietetics because first of all the main topic was food insecurity. As future Registered Dietitians we are going to have to work with people who has food insecurity. It is important for us that we understand what this means and how we can help people. Also, something that I liked was that I was able to see this project were students helped and worked. It is very important for Dietetic students to start from the bottom and since the first day. It is good to get experience and knowledge from a lot of different places. The more experience we get, the more prepared we are going to be for our future professions and jobs.…

    In the Beginning, I really did not know anything about how to eat healthy. I then began “trying to understand my habits…” One thing I did is, I identify The habit loop of the way I was already eating. I realize that I was eating not so healthy. So I began investigating on how to supplant old vices with new routine. I used Google as one of my resources to help me find out on what I should change in my diet. Google was extremely helpful to find healthier alternatives to supplant the foods I was eating and my current routine. Google was my only resource during my challenge.…
