Your Food Choices Last Weekend Discussion
How do you define a healthy diet?
Spend a few moments reflecting on what you think of when you think of health. Think about:
-
- What does it means for a food to be “healthy” or “unhealthy”?
- What does “nutritious” mean? What does a “healthy diet” entail?
- What makes a food “good for you” or “bad for you”?
Now think about this past weekend and all the food and drinks that you consumed.
List some of the items you ate and drank including:
•When did you eat (time of day)?
•How much did you eat (oz,tsp, cup)?
•Why and how did you choose what you ate?
How do you think these choices relate to the physiological (Hunger) and psychological (Appetite) drives for food and drink consumption? How about the slide in our first lecture (slide 25) and the information from your textbook readings that discuss factors affecting food choice. Which factors do you think contributed most to your food choices? Do you think advertising or other factors not mentioned may play a role?
