HNES 465 – Critique #1 Summary: With the increase of coaches, ATs, and SCSs giving sports nutrition knowledge to athletes, their ability to give correct information has yet to be investigated. This study sought out to determine if the nutrition knowledge of coaches, ATs, and SCSs have prominent levels in correctness.

The chapter on a Healthy Diet in the Visualizing Nutrition textbook was a great reminder for me on healthy eating guidelines. What I find most challenging in my life is consuming enough protein daily. I was particularly interested in the “Debate “regarding super-fortified foods. As I try to get in the recommended daily amount of protein I often turn to a protein bar for supplementation. Although I don’t worry about toxicity as I limit myself to one protein bar a day, it is a concern that I had not considered before.…

“No citizen has a right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training… what a disgrace it is for a man to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable” (McCombs, 2016, para. 3) Weight training allows humans to ameliorate their bodies and use them at a peak mental and physical ability. Weight training does not need to be associated with injuries. Most if not all injuries are preventable while weight lifting.…
Many medical students are guided through medicine and when they graduated they have a diploma that certifies them as a doctor. The irony of this is doctors supposedly have degree which entitles them to cure people and tells their patients how to maintain a healthy life. The truth is many doctors don’t know how to or if they do, they do not believe in nutrition so they opt to medicine. Nutrition is defined as, “The science that investigates the relationship between physiological functions and the essential elements of food eaten.” (Donatella 263)…
Overall, Friday’s lab was a great experience for me in learning skills that are going to be part of my future job. I liked having the opportunity to practice as the dietitian because I was able to get one and one experience. For being my first time collecting a 24 Hour Recall I would have to say it went fairly well. However, it could have gone much better if I had with me measuring tools to make it easier for the client to demonstrate their portion sizes. I was able to observe from the students that volunteered in class that props can really make a difference in gathering food details.…
The topics of fitness and nutrition tend to be controversial due to the myths that poison the minds of the ill-informed. The majority of those not involved in some type of voluntary physical activity lack proper knowledge in fitness and nutrition. Even a frightening number of people who are involved in fitness believe myths and factoids to be true, including numerous personal trainers, which is scary. A few common topics that are misconceived include weight management, cardio and its effect on muscle, and the spot reduction of fat. The naive nature of society causes these myths to spread like a wildfire, and their stubbornness renders it difficult to feed the correct information to them.…
Nutrition is a growing science that involves more than knowing about food. Dietary Managers implement mathematics, accounting and business knowledge everyday. I think that it is important to research more about the different job positions offered in the nutrition department to find the right career for you. Two years ago when I started my degree in nutrition, I wasn’t sure about what I really wanted to do. I have a passion about nutrition and helping others, and I thought that Dietetics was the only option I had.…
However, more often than not most people myself included, do not comply with, and often exceed the recommended maximum amount. Moreover, the food logs provide an oversimplified picture of my nutritional intake. One important thing I observed from my food logs is while I am exceeding the daily recommend amount of calories, I am not meeting my nutritional needs. For example, I am not getting a sufficient amount of dairy, protein, or calcium; strangely, I do enjoy eating these foods. After doing some research, I discovered strategies to deal with this problem.…
