A health claim is any claim on label that claims a food brings a particular benefit...the claims must be based on scientific evidence. The evidence is the proof needed to support the claim.
I often doubt the U.S. standards....

Cooking food at home will allow families to control how much salt is added to meals. It can also lead to a better consumption of nutrient dense foods instead of high calorie low nutrition foods. I think society is so fast paced that we don't make the time to cook at home very often anymore. We rely on restaurants to feed us.

The breakdown of protein information is awesome! Great take-a-way!

My food choice hasn't changed much across my life span. I was raised eating lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. My children were raised to do the same. I still consume lots of plants.

In the U.S. we are both commercially driven to eat high fat low nutrition foods, and to make healthy food choices. Personally, I was raised on a farm, that included a freshwater lake. My intake is quite different than the African American centered diet of Soul Food. If and when I cook it, it is modified to be healthier. In the midwest where I live, there is a...

Hopefully, many people will begin have their own gardens, and grow their on food, so in 2050, most families will be self sustaining. If not it will probably be mostly lab grown.

HI! I am a Health and Wellness Specialist from the United States. I am continuing education with this course. So far, I am loving the information. I hope to gain a deeper knowledge and a better understanding of nutrition by taking this course. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

We have developed appetites for unhealthy, processed food substances. Possibly intentional to increase the need for pharma products due to chronic illnesses. If every family had the means and the knowledge to till soil, and produce their own food, chronic illnesses would be reversed and minimized. I am super excited about this course!!

Fleibility and strength..Lucy - so very important! So far I'm getting the impression that the program is giving the participants hope - and once they experience the benefits they have even more! thinking about the loss of strength and fflexibility in your hands as you age can be frightening, thinking about the simple things, like sipping coffee or putting on...

At 12 months the participants that received the SARAH program had shown double the progression in hand improvement compared to the usual care participants. That is remarkable!

I agree with the holistic approach, treatihng the symptoms only suppresses the condition whereas diet and activity could possibly cure or at lease keep the disease from progressing. I love this article.

So many knee and hip replacements, it seems that these are preferred over weigh management and activity.

I am a personal trainer from the United States. What motivated me to join this course is having clients who have been affected by arthritis in their hands. They have limited mobility. Using hand therapy will hopefully offer them some comfort and regaining of some use of what they have lost due to the condition.

I am a personal trainer and nutrition specialist. I workout 5 days per week. My weight is managed through diet and activity, I have a sit down job and sitting has caused my hips to be stiff. Age and sitting is not my friend! I am trying to stand up and stretch throughout my work day. Hopefully I can improve hip mobility.

Healthy diet (proper intake of vitamins, minerals, proper hydration, healthy carbs, fats and proteins) regular activity including stretching and proper hydration can aid in keeping the tendons healthy and preserves elasticity. I found some interesting information in the articles below....

The section of the thigh muscle is interesting, the loss of muscle fiber is astounding! I hope this will introduce ways to maintain a level of muscle mass as we age. I have cared for the elderly in nursing homes and seeing pictures of them when they were younger, I have noticed sarcopenia. I also have witnessed men and women who exercise regularly, these...

The article makes sense, I love the information in which he talks about the DNA strands, and how the ends are shorter and it hinders the replecation process. Listening to the video makes me want to deepen my study of food science so that I can broaden my awareness of the foods that aid in cell regeneration and those that contain higher levels of antioxidants....

Simple remedy, yet difficult when we adopt a lifestyle of unhealthy habits. Healthy eating and an active lifestyle can reverse or improve so many conditions. This article speaks volumes.

I've taken other courses and I'm constantly looking for classes to help me be a better coach to my clients.

I need more knowledge in this area.. point blank! I'm ready to absorbe and learn as much as I can.

This is where the issue lies. People desire to lose weight and become more healthy, but they have lifelong habits that can hinder progress. These habits may even be the reason most people never begin.

I have a personal training degree, and my profession is creating exercise programs for my clients, all of which are overweight.
-
Lenita Mariea Marshall made a comment
I have a personal training degree, during the course, we studied how benificial it is to create short term measurable goals.
-
I believe I answered this question in my last post. I take into consideration the condition of my clients when putting together a workout plan. Not every client is the same, their individual needs must be addressed. I research their conditions, past history, illnesses.. and then move forward with constructing a plan for their goals.
-
Lenita Mariea Marshall made a comment
I love studing food combining, along with exercise, I have a nursing degree so I have a bit of knowledge with chronic illnesses, with a study in nutrition. When my clients come to me for help, I have to take into account any disease and build their diet and workout plan accordingly.

I love the information regarding DNA and how aging affects the ability of our cells to transmit signals and regenerate..I also loved the vidio with the Green vegan vegetable stew! I must try!

I've heard that most herbs and fresh vegetables are good for the musculoskelatal system. I've heard that caffeine is not as it depleats the body of calcium and decreases bone density over time. Regarding exercise, I"ve heard that high impact activities are not good for joints.

Keeping a healthy immune system is important at all times, you never know what could possibly happen, breaking an arm or leg, or catching a cold requires a healthy body to recover! it shouldn't take a pandemic to convince us we need to be healthy.

In the us, the FDA recommends mostly grains, next vegetables and fruits, meats and cheese... I believe this could be the cause of obesity as well as diabetes in our country. I just keep fruit and vegetables out and when I'm hungry they catch my eye first..so they are eaten first.

My thoughts, our bodies are made of natural chemicals. the chemicals found in natural foods, found in our bodies, what better building and sustenance material than what the product is made of! I would rather eat food to heal and be sustained than to use synthetics which treat an ailment..

Well, I tend to eat pretty healthy as it is. I know I should drink more water.

I usually tend to eat lots of fresh vegetables and fruits, I also drink plenty of water. When I eat this way, I notice less joint pain. Adding fresh turmeric root also aids in relieving joint pain. My 8 yr old grandson is reading along and he wanted to add, the food categories listed above also add anti-oxidants to my body. (smiling)
