Your mom is pre-diabetic and her doctor her to make some changes to her diet and lifestyle. List and explain your top three food/lifestyle suggestions and how you would recommend that she incorporate them in her day. Be specific in your food/lifestyle suggestions by offering substitutions to her current plan.

Current Plan: Your mother’s day consists of skipping breakfast and just drinking 2 cups of coffee. She eats a bagel or sandwich with deli meat for lunch. At around 3 o’clock, she eats a handful of chocolate-covered almonds (because she heard almonds are healthy) and for dinner, she usually just heats up a frozen dinner or eats spaghetti with jarred sauce. Her job is sedentary and when she gets home she usually watches television after she is done with housework.

What is the one piece of advice that you would give to them? What is the one piece of advice that you would give to your faculty team?
Does this course help to prepare the MBA student for the business world? Is there anything that you would change in this class to make it more relevant to the MBA curriculum?

At 13, Opal is alarmed by how her body is changing. She’s always been bigger than most of her friends, but she seems to have gained a lot of weight around her abdomen in the past year. At her last medical examination, her doctor commented that she should try to lose weight. Her parents both work, so most days she is home alone for a couple of hours after school. Her neighborhood isn’t very safe, so she usually stays indoors and does homework or chats with friends online. She usually snacks on granola bars, pretzels, and soda while she waits for her parents to come home and cook dinner. Opal is thinking she’d like to lose a significant amount of weight before she starts high school in 6 months.

What would you tell Opal about her desire to lose weight before starting high school
What types of changes would you recommend to Opal?

Details CULTURAL NUTRITION at the Art Institute (or FMNH OR VIRTUALLY anywhere, online) Worksheet/lab for Nutrition At the Museum, choose a culture from among the many displays. Answer the following questions about their diets, health, and culture. The answers to the questions will NOT be on the signs! You will have to spend some “book work or library time” on the questions in order to fully answer and interpret them. Your answers should be typed and the entire assignment should be approximately 4 to 6 pages typed text (double spaced, one inch margins all around, and 12 point print size). Additional pages are accepted if they have pertinent photos or drawings on them. List the exhibit title, hallway number, and any Museum identity numbers on the artifacts used to gather your information and reach your conclusions. Include a reference page. This project should be approximately 4 to 6 pages typed…longer with pictures! Worth 50 points!!! Describe where (and when) the culture on display is found. 2-3 paragraphs with references List relics/artifacts on display that help you to determine this culture’s diet. (photos or sketches in addition to your description add points to this question) Are there any health problems in this culture (or lack of health problems)? Can diet explain this? (Use the library to help answer this!) 4-6 paragraphs with references Compare their diets to “ours” (Average American, 2000 cal/day). How does theirs measure up? Explain the differences in fat, protein and starch consumption, as well as vitamins and minerals ingested. 4-6 paragraphs with references

First: Post your Topic Proposal draft (300+ words); please copy and paste it into a message rather than attaching it.

Second: Respond to at least four (4) proposal drafts to be eligible for full credit. Please spread around these comments, so that everyone receives some feedback. If a draft already has 2-3 comments, find another one! Give detailed feedback, i.e. full sentences.

Does the first sentence of the proposal identify a specific, clear research question? Do you immediately understand what issue the writer will be addressing? Is it phrased as a yes/no question?
Does this question appear debatable? Are there reasonable people on both sides of the question/issue? AND, does the student-writer seem to approach the question with an open mind, ready to look at all sides?
Does the writer include at least 5 relevant questions they will need to answer, in order to answer their main research question? Come up with at least one additional question for the writer to consider.
Does the writer identify specific potential sources they will use? (For example, “.gov” is not specific enough–which government agency?) Is it evident that the writer has conducted background research? Include at least one suggestion for a source the writer could consult.
Does the writer make a persuasive case for why this question matters? Where could they improve?
