The Declaration of Health
There are 5 food groups. There are fruits, vegetables, dairy, proteins, and grains. In this 7 paragraph essay, you will learn about what nutrients they provide, misconceptions about the food group, and some recommendations that could help you eat and live better.
A food group that has to be a big part of my daily diet is the fruit food group. “Any fruit or 100% fruit juice is a part of the fruit group”(“All about the Fruit Group”). Some fruits include: apples, oranges, strawberries, and watermelons. Some people think factories do not wash their fruits. They in fact do. If factories didn’t wash their fruits, then they wouldn’t be able to sell their produce. “Most fruits are naturally low in fat, sodium, and calories. None have cholesterol”(“Nutrients and Health

Some of these supplements include: "Meat, poultry, fish, dry beans and peas, eggs, nuts, and seeds supply many nutrients. These include protein, B vitamins (niacin, thiamin, riboflavin, and B6), vitamin E, iron, zinc, and magnesium"("Nutrients and Health Benefits"). Seafood, eggs, beans, and beef could all get you these nutrients. People might not believe me if I say that nuts are considered part of the protein group, but they in fact are. Nuts and seeds still get you a lot of protein, maybe for vegetarians. "The amount of food from the Protein Foods Group you need to eat depends on age, sex, and level of physical activity. Most Americans eat enough food from this group, but need to make leaner and more varied selections of these foods"("All about the Proteins Foods Group?"). The USDA recommends to "Trim away all of the visible fat from meats and poultry before cooking." I'll have to change my current eating habit by eating less protein foods because some of them have high saturated fat, which is bad. I'll have trouble changing it because I personally LOVE seafood, but as I said, some of them have high saturated
On 22nd of the October we assessed the other group members and found the following outcomes, which include a lot of improvements in Knowledge, skills and abilities.

In today's society Americans are accustomed to and spoiled by having their food made in a quick time frame while not having the slightest clue where the food is coming from. No, not everyone is going to try to figure out exactly what is in their food. More often than people know, the food they eat day in and day out is not as clean or healthy as they may think. Unfortunately, the healthcare and wellbeing of citizens are sometimes not being taken into consideration, when pertains to food. Of course food companies know humans need food to eat and more will be bought, especially when the cost of the product is low, but is it safe to consume on an everyday basis?
Food is the sustaining life force that drives the human race forwards from day to day. As daily consumers of food products, it is automatically expected that the producers of such important products aim to produce goods that will help the consumer and attribute to their health. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. At the turn of the twentieth century, food sanitation in factories was at an all time low. Adding to this issue were the harsh conditions in which the workers were forced to work in.
Michael Pollan summarizes what we should eat in his book IN DEFENSE OF FOOD. There are many “edible food like substances in the supermarket” (1) indicates his disagreement how people consume processed food from supermarket. So, he advises people to eat whole fresh food and avoid the treated food. “Lots of processed foods and meats…makes people sick and fat” (10). Pollan concerns regarding public health due to processed food and then encourages people to eat lots of fruits and vegetables to be healthy.
Having read the GR, I would like to respond as follows: Page 4 Each member of the team is responsible for managing their timing on a daily basis to ensure all customer needs are attended to within the working hours. During every team meetings JA always state the importance of having all members of staff taking their lunch during the business stipulated hours of 12noon and 2pm. He has on numerous occasions stated that the full hour is taken and that each staff is to plan their work load so that it does not clash with this period.
Health and safety legislation applies rules to persons conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU). A key part of legislation is to make these people officers and apply rules towards these individual’s duty of care. They cannot opt out of this responsibility. In short, duty of care refers to a work environment being safe and secure. Legislative documents include the regulations, which are specific documents giving information provided under the Work Health Safety Act.
In a pescatarian diet, one does not only get their protein from fish, but from: nuts, seeds, beans and lentils. Not only do these foods have less cholesterol and fat in them in relation to meat, but they are cheaper, with beans and lentils being the cheapest
In the ever changing landscape of health and social care and children and young person’s settings there are many pieces of government legislation and regulatory framework that service providers and organisations must now comply with. For example Care Quality Commission (CQC) introduced the essential standards of quality and safety which are central to the workplace. Every staff member has responsibility for providing good quality social care. Social care governance is the process by which organisations ensure good service delivery and promote good outcomes for people who use services.
As a Domiciliary Care Manager (DCM), I have a responsibility under the Employers’ Code to have policies and systems to protect people from damaging or dangerous situations, behaviour, and practice.

I have chosen public health as my major because it is a dynamic field. I have a passion for making a difference in people’s lives and helping others achieve their goals. It is with great passion that I am dedicated and willing to contribute my service or skills to help someone in need.

The Local Complaint Stage (1) Immediately after hearing of a complaint, contact the complainant to determine where their issues lie and what they would like to see as a result of the investigation.

You can still get your essential proteins through a combination of nuts and beans. If you cannot go on a vegan diet, you can still help by reducing the consumption of meat. Our diet is heavily based on meat, but you need only 2-3 servings of meat per day. Increasing the portion of fruits and vegetables you eat is more beneficial to your health. How you spend your money is also a powerful influence, so the next time you go to the grocery store, think about how the extra money you pay for the organic meat can make a positive
It is not difficult to find rotten fruits lurking among a tray of apples and oranges. Due to their appearance, healthy options such as fruit are often discarded. It is the duty of the National School Lunch Program to provide food for students, yet the quality and taste of school lunches requires drastic
Foods from all different kinds of groups should be eaten. We should consume whole grains such as wheat, rice and oats. They have many nutrients including dietary fiber and several vitamin B and minerals. Protein foods such as lean meats, poultry, seafood that are rich in omega- 3 fatty acids, beans, peas and eggs are good protein sources. (U.S department of agriculture, 2017) 3.
