PART 1: INITIAL POST
Write a post in the discussion forum answering the following 3 parts (5 points each):
- Compare your overall diet to that provided in the USDA’s Choose My Plate guidelines. How is your diet similar? How is it different? What changes do you think you should make to your diet after reading the USDA guidelines, if any, and why?
- Research one popular current diet/nutrition plan. Example include: The Paleo Diet, Atkins Diet, Zone Diet, Gluten-Free Diet, Whole 30, 21 Day Fix, etc. There are many to choose from! Briefly describe the diet: the purpose, the main foods it allows or omits, and whether or not you believe this nutrition plan is effective at meeting its goals. Finally, discuss whether there is any scientific evidence supporting this plan (references required).
