Nutrition is a help as to how we wish to live our lives and feel good doing it. It includes not only what foods you eat, but your physical activity, plus the amount of sleep you need. This is a 5 day study. We will keep track of the foods we eat for 5 days, analyze them and decide how we will improve upon them. We will focus on the food pyramid in this unit.
