This assignment shows students how to calculate the protein needs of a healthy adult and an athlete in training. The assignment is meant for introductory nutrition classes or health-related classes.
High School students will learn more about protein in the body and why it is essential. They will also analyze complete vs. incomplete proteins and making healthy protein choices.
This course encompasses the study of eating as it affects the health and well-being of every human. Topics include taste preferences, food aversions, the regulation of hunger and satiety, food as comfort and friendship, eating as social ritual, and social norms of blame for food problems. The politics of food discusses issues such as sustainable agriculture, organic farming, genetically modified foods, nutrition policy, and the influence of food and agriculture industries. Also examined are problems such as malnutrition, eating disorders, and the global obesity epidemic; the impact of food advertising aimed at children; poverty and food; and how each individual's eating is affected by the modern environment.
In this lesson designed to enhance literacy skills, students learn how to use fractions to interpret the nutritional information contained on food labels.
Interview With Chef Drolet – In this lesson, students will learn new vocabulary related to food and talk about the food in their own countries. Students of all ages and levels will appreciate this lesson.If you want additional lesson plans and support, including teachers’ notes, be sure to register for a free Off2Class account.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"Though a seemingly simple task, eating requires a coordinated effort between multiple oral muscles, such as those found in the tongue and lips. A new study conducted by researchers in Japan has found a link between the strength of these muscles and a condition called ‘nutrition-related sarcopenia’. From childhood through young adulthood, your muscles continually grow larger and stronger. At some point in mid-life, however, this trajectory switches course and many muscles begin to deteriorate, a progression termed sarcopenia. While this muscle loss is a natural part of the aging process, malnutrition has been suggested to amplify the problem. And, because nutritional intake involves oral function, degeneration of these muscles may play a role. In hopes of clarifying this relationship, the team evaluated more than 200 patients over the age of 65 for malnutrition and assessed factors such as tongue strength, lip strength, and the amount of food they ate..."

This lesson is for safety and sanitation in the kitchen. Specifically what food-borne illness is and how to prevent it from happening.
A very short video introduction to how photosynthesis cycles energy through an ecosystem and a "real-world" application of ratios! Lindsay Hollister, JPPM's horticulturalist, taps a black walnut tree for its sap and park staff boil it down to create syrup. Included in this video are an animated food web showing the directions of energy flow during photosynthesis and when sap is "rising," which can be extended by students to include humans or more parts of their local ecosystem. Use the video as an introduction to activities about sugar and biological storage, and an excuse to sample maple syrup to taste the sugar. Alternatively, research trees nearby students could help tap and witness the biological transfer of energy themselves.
Always be sure you can successfully identify a plant before using it and take precautions to avoid negative reactions.

"These simple tools are transforming how children are treated for acute malnutrition. Designed for people with low literacy, these tools have the potential to help community health workers treat children with severe acute malnutrition close to home, in areas around the world where the nearest health facility is hours away. Malnutrition is the single biggest threat to public health according to the World Health Organization. Globally, it contributes to 45% of deaths of children under 5. Treatment for the most severe cases was, until recently, only available at a hospital as around-the-clock care—which is virtually impossible in many low-income countries. With the development of ready-to-use therapeutic foods, this treatment became available in outpatient programs at lower-level facilities, requiring weekly visits for up to 2-4 months. While this outpatient treatment model has been scaled up to over 60 countries with a high burden of malnutrition, it hasn’t reached every community where it’s needed..."

Hormones have a large effect on the skin, details of which can be found at endocrine and nutritional influences on the skin. As a result, endocrine associated skin pathology is relatively common.
