Groggy, bleary eyes, rubbing sleep from my face and half stumbling I wander into the kitchen, hearing the relations ...

These deficiencies can result in impaired immune and cognitive functions and can affect energy levels of an individual. Women of reproductive age usually experience menstruation on a regular basis.

In this class I have learned that eating healthy does not necessarily mean consuming less calories, skipping specific food groups, or skipping whole meals; but rather, eating healthy means consuming all types of foods in a balanced way. What surprised me most was that healthy eating actually means consuming many calories, but they have to be beneficial; they cannot be so called “empty calories.” Foods that are considered high in calories but still healthy are dried fruits and avocados. Cereal is a good breakfast option because of the high percentage of fiber and calcium. While consuming many healthy calories is ...
