This MG-2 is good for a eight (8) weeks and he certainly can renew it after you have done the eight (8) weeks of physical therapy.…

My overall intake of nutrients raised a red flag towards my health, when I saw that my sodium intake is over the recommended consumption amount.

I was advised by doctors to take three iron pills a day to neutralize my iron levels.…

The minestrone soup recipe was chosen because it was achievable in the time provided and it met all of the criteria required, with the exception of dairy. Minestrone has a range of benefits. It usually contains a large amount of vegetables, which adds to both the flavor and the health benefits. The vegetables in the recipe selected include carrots, celery, potato, garlic, tomatoes, kidney beans, and garlic. Most vegetables are very high in fiber, particularly potatoes, which was one of the key vegetables in the minestrone - with approximately 3.8 grams per average potato (Racanelli, 2016).…
The reason for this is due to an increase in urinary loss of magnesium which will impair the insulin secretion that is required. Another example of an illness due to low intakes of magnesium, would be osteoporosis. This can be defined as bones becoming brittle and fragile. Since magnesium is involved in bone formation, studies have shown a positive relation between magnesium intake and bone mineral density. A last example would be that low intakes of magnesium can also result in migraines or headaches.…
For example, my calcium intake was 361.54 mg, but the recommended intake was 1,000.00 mg. Also, the calcium is an important nutrient to keep our bone healthy. According to my food list, the foods that contain high calcium were yogurt, bok choy, and tofu. However, I still need to consume more food like these. On the other hand, my phosphorus intake was 949.67 mg, so it was over higher than the recommended amount of phosphorus intake, which just was 700.00 mg.…
I have learned a lot about nutrition so far over the course of this semester. This diet analysis project was probably the thing that I have least looked forward to having to complete. I know my diet is poor, I figured I ate too many bad foods, but I didn 't expect it to be lacking essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients in so many different areas. It 's truly amazing to see foods I thought were "complete" and "good" for me, aren 't really, and may actually hinder me in the quest for a truly healthy diet.…
The world of foods and nutrition has changed greatly in recent years (Foods). Red meat, whole milk, and eggs are foods that doctors use to recommend. However, current studies have revealed these items are not truly healthy choices. Now doctors recommend leafy green vegetables, beans, whole grains, and fruits. With patience and the desire to help others, dietitians examine, treat, and plan diets for adults, as well as children with nutritional concerns.…
The common name is chronic fatigue syndrome, but other names for this condition are chronic fatigue and immune disorder (CFIDS), myalgic encephalomyelitis, and post viral syndrome. Chronic fatigue syndrome is a condition that leaves the person extremely tired. People with chronic fatigue syndrome experience this level of extreme tiredness for six or more months continuously (Rizzo, 2006). Chronic fatigue syndrome is difficult to diagnose, because it has many symptoms that correspond with other conditions. Chronic fatigue syndrome is a serious condition that was thought to have affected about 800,000 Americans a few years ago (Jason, 2006) but from more recent studies show that as many as four million Americans…
The burning of magnesium in open air causes a chemical reaction that forms the compound, magnesium oxide. This reaction occurs due to the heat that provides energy to activate the reaction. A blinding white flame will burn as the reaction occurs. In this lab, magnesium is burned in an open crucible over a Bunsen burner several times until the magnesium ceases to burn. This process allows for the magnesium to completely react with the oxygen found in the open air, forming the chemical compound magnesium oxide.…
