I’ve uploaded a scanned (image) file of a Women’s
World Magazine's mystical, magical diet. The
cover…”Lose 25 lbs This Month!
University proven: Paleo Diet
secrets that HEAL YOUR THYROID!”
The assignment—due via email.
A)
FIRST, before you read the article: Using your own information (gender, height,
weight) and basing it off of a SEDENTARY lifestyle, calculate what YOU would
need to do in order to lose 25 pounds in 31 days. You will need to use the information estimated
by caloriecount.about.com or other method to determine the number of kcals you
need for current weight maintenance…and go from there. Again, this must have been calculated using
SEDENTARY as the activity level setting.
Why? Because you log in your
activities/exercise separately.
B)
Consider the function of the thyroid. How would someone know if their thyroid was
overactive? Underactive? What would a doctor test? [Indeed, blood samples are required for us to
know what is happening!]
C)
Now, read the article. Analyze it.
Thoroughly. Include an analysis
of the recipes and menus. Comb through
this new “secret” and see what you come up with. Is it a good idea? Bad idea?
Is it a healthy choice? [Hint,
Calorie count can help you determine how the menus and recipes contribute to a
healthy diet. I would enter the
suggested foods into calorie count as if I had eaten them…then examine that
day’s nutritional status report.]
