Cypress College Making Nutritional Changes Discussion

We have seen that the U.S. has some of the highest disease rates amongst developed nations, including cancer, heart disease, diabetes and obesity. The latter was classified by the AMA as a disease in 2013. In 2018, NHANES (National Health & Nutrition Examination Survey) reported that 42% of adults and 19.3% of children (2-19 years) are obese, resulting in 100+ million American adults, and 13+ million children, being deemed as having a medical condition that needs treatment.

1. As a result of this knowledge, along with nutritional information gained (hopefully) during this course, what are the changes (if any) you have made to your nutritional intake over the last 3 months?
2. As the motivation to make nutritional changes is the key to improving the health of our Nation, why did your changes occur?
3. What are the consequences (benefits), and what are some nutritional changes you would still like to make (and why)?
