SCHOOL NUTRITION GUIDE

• From a private school in Louisiana 
• 32 pages! Only going through some today
• The most DIFFICULT thing to read & comprehend 
• What is nutrition?
  • "Relates the health and wellbeing of people with food they eat"
  • This doesn't even make sense?!
• This guide has the worst sentence structure and awful grammar
• 6 types of nutrients
  • Carbs, Fats, Proteins, Vitamins, Minerals, Water
• What do nutrients provide? (Very misinformed)
  • Energy (Carbs, Fats, Proteins) 
  • No calories - Vitamins, Minerals, Water
  • Grains - They advocate eating whole grains
  • Veggies - vitamin A 
  • Fruits - vitamin C, eat a variety
    • They do recognize that many juices add sugar but still say you can have 100% fruit juice
      • This is still unfortunately, still straight sugar 
  • Milk - calcium 
    • They say to go low fat or fat free with dairy
      • Wrong!
      • When you pull fat out, it is basically straight sugar
  • Meat - protein
    • They say to choose low fat, lean 
    • They say to put meat with beans -- starchy carb
      • Gotta be carful about doing this 
• "Limit fats because they don't have nutrients and only have calories"
  • 100% incorrect 
  • You need that macronutrient to live 
• It seems to be vilifying meat and fat and highlighting grains
  • "Eat whole grains!" 
    • Nothing will cause a heart attack faster than a "heart healthy" gran 
  • "Eat starchy vegetables -- there is no bad vegetables."
    • Incorrect both factually and grammar-wise
