Nutrition: What Choices Lead to a Healthy Lifestyle?
Wed, Mar 19, 2014 1:34 AM
We are responsible
What choices lead to a healthy lifestyle is always a question that is ask of me. Many individuals knowing the I am a running coach and at one time was a very good runner ask me how I could be so thin. In this reading it really goes in depth about how we can live healthy and that there is more to it than just eating right.
It gives us how much children, 1hr and adults,2hrs. 30mins a week of moderate activity. The toughest thing is the motivation of getting out the door or inside for physical activity. But knowing or at least being aware of the having future problems will hopefully motivate us enough to be a little more active. I like the Old saying of "you are what you eat". People have to understand and see that they are consuming more calories than our body use causing weight gain if not active. We need to not over do our calorie consumption.
Its okay to eat a candy bar and even have a burger and fries every now and then but we need to plan when is the proper time and to eat in moderation.
For guidance to keep at a healthy weight there are a lot of resources we can look into. There are plans that show how many calories we need to be at according to activity level, weight, and age.

life in any enviornment
I found it very interesting that their could be forms of life in any type of environment. In this podcast it showed how life existed in very cold places in lakes that are frozen and even hot springs in the earth. But what is putting farther investigation to pursue forward is the possible contamination of equipment that will be used. These places have never been touched before.
Nutrition: What are Nutrients?

what keeps the body going
There are many types of nutrients that help our bodies function throughout the day. A food pyramid would be good to use and have up in my PE class to go over to see what type of nutrients are being put into their bodies. Having the students know this would be beneficial for the students to help them with learning in the class room with the understand that is energy needed on a daily basis. I would explain how the nutrients would be helping them in their school and learning. The students need to have a brief summary of the nutrients and what body part or benefit is to come. In my PE classes I have touch a little on eating habits the food pyramid, and importance of being active daily.
