...Healthy Meal a. The restaurant that I have chosen is McDonald’s. I will create a grilled chicken salad for the healthy meal. The salad will have very little fat in it, as the chicken will be breast meat and will be grilled instead of fried. The salad it self will contain lettuce, carrots, cabbage, radishes, and walnuts. All the vegetables in the salad contain vitamins and fiber. The salad will also be served with a diet soda, no sides and will contain a fruit parapet, which will contain dairy and vitamins from the fruit. b. I think making and eating this meal will be very healthy for me because, it contains very little fat from both the breast meat and the vegetables. Eating a salad is definitely healthier than eating a cheeseburger or some sort of chicken sandwich as they both contain high amounts of calories. I would also eat the salad without any kind of dressing on it, because it too contains a high amount of fat and calories. c. I think this will affect my future food choices by making me think about what food does to my body. Not only that, but it will make me think about how it would make me feel after eating the meal and to really think about what I should and should not be eating. 2. Unhealthy Meal a. The restaurant that I have chosen for the unhealthy meal is Jack N’ the Box. The meal will consist of an ultimate bacon cheeseburger that will have two meat patties with bacon, cheese, mustard and ketchup. It will also be served with French fries and a coke. The...

...High Fructose Corn Syrup Terry Johnson Devry University 9/11/2014 HFCS was first introduced by Richard O. Marshall and Earl R. Kooi in 1957. They were, however, unsuccessful in making it viable for mass production, primarily because the glucose-isomerizing activity they discovered required arsenate, which was highly toxic to humans. An industrially feasible glucose isomerase, which did not require arsenate ion for its catalytic activity, was first discovered by Dr. Kei Yamanaka, Kagawa University, Japan, in 1961. The industrial production process was refined by Dr. Yoshiyuki Takasaki ay the Agency of Industrial Science and Technology of Ministry of International Trade and Industry of Japan in 1965-1970. High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a fructose/glucose liquid sweetener substitute for sucrose common table sugar, first introduced to the food and beverage industry in the 1970s. There is not much different in the composition or metabolism of other fructose/glucose sweeteners like sucrose (sugar), honey, and concentrated fruit juices. HFCS was broadly accepted by food designers, its use grew between the mid-1970s and mid-1990s as an alternative for sugar. HFCS instantly proved itself as an alternative to sugar in liquid applications because of its salability in acidic foods and beverages. HFCS it is syrup, and can be pumped from delivery vehicles to storage and mixing tanks, requiring only simple dilution before use. This ingredient derived from corn a dependable, renewable...

...Fructose and the increased amount of Obesity in America Nutri, Health & Wellness Professor Date: Week 2: Fructose and the increased amount of Obesity in America Introduction This paper will be discussing the popular sweetener: fructose. Fructose’s History Fructose is known to be found specifically in plants abundantly. It contains a six carbon sugar that goes by the name of hexose. It also possesses glucose which is known as a common table sugar. Fructose By taking a look at Figure 1 listed above, we are able to see how fructose is structured. Now in Figure 2 we are able to see the role that Fructose plays in fruits and vegetables Figure 2: The amount of Fructose that is found in some of our favorite fruits and veggies Fructose was first discovered in 1847 by French chemist Augustin-Pierre Dubrunfaut. Fructoses function in high fructose corn syrup was also a very important discovery. Fructose was first used in high fructose corn syrup in 1977. [1]. For those that are unaware, Fructose is found a big amount of plants and is listed as a monosaccharide. Fructose is a part of the three dietary monosaccharides that include galactose and glucose which are typically absorbed during digestion into the bloodstream. Fructose is found in berries, most root vegetables, honey, flowers, fruits and vine fruits. Fructose is typically...

...[Type the company name] | Menu Creation | Week 3 Lab | | | 11/15/2014 | Is it healthy? Is it lathered in grease and fat? Let’s take a look at a fast food restaurant and see. | For my chosen fast food restaurant, I chose Carl’s Jr. I made a healthy and unhealthy meal from the menu available. For the healthy meal, I chose a Charbroiled Atlantic Cod Fish sandwich, a small serving of sweet potato fries, a strawberry swirl cheesecake and a bottle of water. From the given items, I believe this was the healthiest, including all protein, carbohydrates and dietary fiber. Total Meal Nutrition * Calories – 1040 * Calories from fat – 400 * Fat – 44g * Saturated Fat – 14mg * Trans fat – 0g * Cholesterol – 90mg * Protein – 29g * Sodium – 1600mg * Carbohydrates – 131g * Dietary Fiber – 9g * Sugars – 49g While this meal has quite a bit of sodium, it has fewer calories than most other meals. This meal has a bit cholesterol and sugar, but when compared to cheeseburgers and cookies, this meal shows the healthy side. Instead of choosing a salad, I believe a cod fish sandwich was a better choice because of the protein. A full meal includes some form of protein, but with a salad, you would be missing out on the needed protein. While this meal has a lot of sodium, I believe all the nutrients balance themselves out for a rounded balanced meal. Of course fast food is going to be slightly higher with sodium, calories, and carbs, but...

...iLab week 1 Essay SCI 228 Nutrition, Health, and Wellness iLab Week 1 Essay There are 14 parts of the digestive system. They include the salivary glands, tongue, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, gall bladder, small intestine, large intestine, appendix, rectum, and the anus. Food we eat first enters our mouth, which is where you find the tongue. We know it’s in there because it tastes the food we put in our mouth. You will find the salivary glands in 2 spots, under your tongue and behind your tongue. The best way to remember that it’s located there is to known that it releases saliva and there is always saliva on your tongue. Our pharynx is found in the back of the mouth. To remember it is located there I use the first half of the word which sounds like far, and then use that as a saying. The Pharynx is the start of a far travel. This is down the esophagus. The esophagus starts at the back of your mouth and runs down into your stomach. I remember it’s located there because I feel food go down my esophagus when I touch my neck. Our stomach is located underneath our heart. Most people love food. I use that to remember where our food goes after we swallow, under the heart into the stomach. The pancreas is located behind the stomach. It’s located behind the stomach because it needs to use the blood streams coming out of the heart to add enzymes it made. After the stomach, food will go into the small intestine. The best way to remember that the small intestine...

Osa-Edoh, and A.N.G. Alutu Department of Educational Psychology and Curriculum Studies, Faculty of Education, University of Benin, P.M.B. 1154, Benin City, Nigeria Abstract: This study examined the usefulness of Imbibing in the students study habit as a means of enhancing their academic performance. The study tried to delve into the fallen standard of education in Nigeria and reasons for the fallen standard from the perspective of the stakeholders in education, the teacher, parents as well as the students themselves. The study also examined efforts that have been put in place in die past to put an end to the fallen standard of education. In these regard, some hypothesis were raised to find out reasons for the fallen standard. However, the study showed a high and academic performance. Furthermore, the difference in the study habits are attributed to the facts that students do not know how to study and those that manage to study do not adopt effective study methods! Key words: Academic performance, Nigeria, student habits, study habit C INTRODUCTION It is an understatement to say that the standard of education in Nigeria has fallen.

...Splenda WK2 iLab Michelle Hooper SCI 228 – Nutrition, Health & Wellness July 20, 2012 Splenda History Splenda was born by mistake. In 1975, a young Indian scientist and chemist named Shashikant Phadnis was working on an insecticide at Queen Elizabeth College in London. He was working with his colleague another scientist named Leslie Hough. While working on a compound that mixed sulfuryl chloride and a sugar solution produced a violent reaction that looked like powder. The compound that it produced was 1‘, 4, 6, 6‘- tetrachloro - 1‘, 4, 6, 6’ - tetra-deoxygalactosucrose. Shashikant Phadnis misunderstood a directive from his superior and though he was told to taste the mixture. What he tasted was extremely sweet. He told Hough about it and he tried it as well. Hough was so delighted by the sweetness that he had the idea to put some in his coffee even though Phadnis was concerned about toxicity. The two scientists worked with a British sugar company named Tate & Lyle over the next year to find the perfect formula combination for their discovery. In 1976, Phadnis and Hough found their formula and in its pure form it is known as “sucralose”. The little yellow packets we use today contain fillers with the sucralose known as “Splenda”. (Bilger, 2006). Splenda is used on many foods or even baking. It can be used on fruits and in drinks such as coffee and tea. The popularity that Splenda has today has even been mass produced in foods, beverages...

...Week 7 iLab: Lifecycle of a school age child Erin Hopp SCI-228 2/20/2015 Professor Shoaei A school aged child is between the ages of 4 and 13. A child normally goes to preschool around the age of 4. Kids between the ages of 14 to 18 years are considered adolescents. School aged kids grow slower than infants. They have a consistent growth. Food habits are established during this stage. School aged kids will usually eat between four and five times including snacks. It’s important to have a healthy diet and eat nutritious snacks. Snacks make up about 1/3 of a child’s total calorie intake per day. Growing and active children need snacks and should fall under the five food groups. With the rise of childhood obesity, children need to be taught how to choose healthy choice when eating. Snacks should meet energy and nutrient needs. Eating sugar is not going to be nutritious or give them lasting energy. Parents set the example for healthy eating. Both diet and exercise is important with school aged kids. With the technology advancement these days, it’s easy for a child to sit at a computer, in front of a tv, or with a tablet for hours. Children need to be active for at least an hour or more every day. Childhood diabetes is becoming more common. As obesity rates in children have climbed, so has the incidence of Type 2 diabetes, and a new study adds another worry: the disease progresses more rapidly in children than in adults and is harder to treat. This is why...

...THE EFFECTS OF BUFFER PATTERNS ON THROUGHPUT IN CONWIP FLOW LINES: A SIMULATION STUDY Sunitiya Thuannadee Received: May 21, 2007; Revised: Sept 4, 2007; Accepted: Sept 10, 2007 Abstract This research was a simulation experiment which aimed to investigate the effects of buffer patterns on the throughput of lines controlled by a CONWIP release mechanism. The hypothetical lines simulated were stochastic 11-station flow lines with the middle station as the bottleneck. ANOVA tests were used for the analysis of the simulation output, followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range tests. There were 6 buffer patterns which were distinguished by the amount of total buffer capacity and the buffer allocation approaches. The experiment was done at three levels of protective capacity (PC); 0%, 20%, and 40%, and two levels of coefficient of variation (CV) of processing times; 0.05 and 0.50. When CV = 0.05, ANOVA tests revealed a significant difference (p < 0.01) among buffer patterns only for the lines with PC of 0%, whereas when PC = 20% and 40%, there were insignificant differences among buffer patterns. When CV = 0.50, ANOVA tests indicated significant differences (p < 0.01) among buffer patterns at all PC levels. The important suggestion is that appropriate allocation of limited buffer capacity, an addition of protective capacity, and a reduction of system variation could increase the throughput rates to the desired level.

However, traditional methods cannot measure the ancient leaving rates, so a myriad of research attempting to provide explanations were met with unmatched magnitudes. In this paper we consider that the growth patterns on fossils could reflect the ancient Earth-Sun relationships. Through mechanical analysis of both the Earth-Sun and Earth-Moon systems, these patterns confirmed an increase in the Earth-Sun distance. With a large number of well-preserved specimens and new technology available, both the modern and ancient leaving rates could be measured with high precision, and it was found that the Earth has been leaving the Sun...

...Autosomal Dominant Hyper IgE Syndrome, a STAT3 Mutation Lydia Sofia Moutsiou, W1574096 Hyper-immunoglobulin E syndrome (HIES), is a rare primary immunodeficiency characterized by elevated serum levels of IgE, pneumonia, recurrent eczema, eosinophilia, and staphyloccocal skin infections. It is estimated to affect 1:100,00 and it can inherited by be either an autosomal dominant (AD) mutation in STAT3 gene, or autosomal recessive mutation in DOCK8 gene (Grimbacher, Holland, & Puck, Hyper-IgE syndromes, 2005). History The autosomal dominant HIES was first described in 1966 by Davis, Schaller and Wedgwood. They investigated a rare case of two red-haired girls with recurrent eczema, pneumonia and staphylococcal skin infections and referred to it as Job’s syndrome (Davis, Schaller, & Wedgwood, 1966). Later on, in 1972, Buckley et al. worked on a case of two boys presenting the same symptoms as well as eosinophilia, severe dermatitis and elevated serum IgE levels and referred to it as Buckley’s syndrome (Buckley, Wray BB, & Belmaker, 1972). Further research in the first case of the two girls confirmed that they also had high serum IgE levels and abnormalities in neutrophil chemotaxis suggesting that both Davis and Buckley were describing the same syndrome (Hill, et al., 1974). For many years the condition was only associated with the immune system. In 1999, Grimbacher et al., proved that autosomal dominant HIES also affects the skeletal and connective tissue in a study...
