1. What was your sleep pattern like before you changed your diet?
I was extremely light sleeper, we couldn’t sleep with the heat or air conditioning on because it would wake me up with it would turn on. I would wake up at least 2 times every night sometimes up to 5. There would be no cause usually of the wake up. Never had to go to the bathroom or anythingl ike that and I usually was able to fall back asleep fairly easy.
2. How have your sleep changed?
Hardly ever wake up in the middle of the night and I sleep deeper and even have slept through my alarm a few times. I also feel much better in the morning, not so tired through the day and more alert. I’ve been on the same regular sleeping schedule around 10:30-11 and waking up around 6:30 or 7
3. How have your diet changed?
I’ve switched to a mostly vegan diet. I might have a cookie or something that has egg and milk in it every once in a while but other than that everything I cook and buy is vegan. I no longer eat fast food either. I used to eat small mcd’s meals like 3 times a week. Now I eat a very balanced diet. I’ve become a health freak haha
4. What kinds of foods would you recommend to those with troubled sleep?
I don’t really have any ideas for sleep directly but I think eating as many fresh veggies and fruits along with whole grains and lean proteins are great for anyone who is looking to feel better along with sleeping better.
5. Are there any other benefits that you feel from this new diet?
Clearer skin, healthy looking nails, I swear my hair is healthier and growing FAST, no more IBS or other digestive problems, never feel disgustingly full even after eating too much, a little weight loss (mostly just lost inches in hard to lose places), happier, I haven’t had one bit of depression since my switch I’ll usually go through a week or two per year that I’m feeling bad.
Hello Everyone,
I am in the middle of creating a questionnaire that is intended to ask people about their exercise and eating habits. For instance, if they smoke/drink/if they are on medications and so forth.
I am thinking of becoming a Nutrition & Wellness Consultant. I would like to get to know clients better by asking them questions about themselves regarding their health and activity levels.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Following are some questions you could ask:
If they have had any serious health problems in the past, what were they (what illness)?
Are they allergic to any food/medication/…?
do they go to gym? If not, do they exercise at home?
how often they exercise?
what is their exercise routine?
are they involved in any type of sports?
how many meals they have in a day?
how often they eat junk food?
Hope these questions help…good luck
I have to take it this year and I don’t have a clue what it is!
What exactly do you do in that class?
For nutrition, maybe you will have to create an eating journal. There might be a book, an easy one about nutritional health based on newer theories. You might learn about alternative medicine or relaxation techniques. You might have a research paper, and an easy multiple choice final. I am thinking, an easy "A". My friend has taken a course of study in this field, and it sounded like lots of exposure to new age gurus.
i’ll have a B.A. in psych in 2010, and i’m interested in nutrition/wellness/culinary nutrition. However, most programs require classes in organic chem, biology, etc. before admission. i’m not a science person and i don’t want to pursue a science career–but i want to do something with food/nutrition/wellness, just more of the culinary side. any suggestions? thanks!
Culinary school is generally its own thing. You can’t get a degree in nutrition without the science, sorry.
You could continue on with whatever your intention was in the psych degree and take culinary courses at night perhaps.
Im gonna be a junior next year, i have 4 classes that i nees to take so i need to choose some electives…which ones should i pick!?

basically i would like to know how to make a menu on a computer. please and thank you
as in a restraunt menu hahah
Shame that you do not tell us a little more, like what sort of menu….. like a restaurant menu, or a PC based "multiple-choice" menu for a web page or similar?
You may expect some sympathy and assistance if you provide the necessary basic facts, otherwise otherwise.
I have been interested in getting a certification for nutrition, health and wellness and possibly earn a doctoral degree in that career; however, I do not want to pay out extra money to do something on-line if it is not validated enough. I did find a on-line college I was interested in called Clayton school of natural health. Right now I am attending Anne Arundel community college and then I will transfer to Maryland University. Please, anyone give me your expertise and or opinions! Thanks!

A couple of years ago I did my own personal research to find a good on-line college. The sentiment I got from most of the on-line colleges was that they are more show, shock and awe, if you will, then actually focused on learning. In a way, they were more focused marketing of their school name/programs. Of course this isn’t true of all on-line colleges, it was just a common trend among the schools I researched.
One school in particular was terrible. I received dozens of calls from their "representatives" and tons of emails almost begging me to enroll. I personally used that as a gauge of how wisely each school used their money. The schools which only sent me the requested information I considered more seriously (because they didn’t waist money on marketing).
For me, it comes down to how the school values your tuition dollars. If they are going to spend it on increasing enrollment numbers, they have less to spend on improving the learning environment.
The other area of concern for me was the transferability of credits. In the United States there is no government accreditation, only private national or regional accreditation agencies. Getting credits to transfer between two schools who use different accreditation agencies will be more difficult (sometimes impossible). If you plan to move to a different school or continue with your doctoral degree, make sure you do your research on your school(s) of choice!
One last tidbit about accreditation. Most on-line colleges are accredited by national accreditation bodies while most traditional local/state college/universities are accredited by regional bodies.
As far as which degree is worth more, on-line or traditional college? It all comes down to which school will work best for you. There are a few highly regarded on-line colleges out there which offer a quality education on par with many traditional colleges.
I need help coming up with a plan to increase activity, physical fitness , nutrition, and general overall wellness in the student body. I must draw the interest of the entire school not just one certain group or club.
Then:
How should I promote this?
How am I going to raise the money if it costs money?
Who is going to be responsible for the program?
What does the program consist of (Explain in Detail)
How will you keep students motivated to continue the program?
Already done the Biggest Loser
You should be able to do plenty of free stuff. If you do need money, speak to a local sporting goods store, medical facility, or even a department store. A lot of these places have some money set aside to sponser events (it’s a tax write-off for them).
I would set up some sort of a competition, maybe between groups or classes. That would make people more likely to come out.
Speak with faculty members and have them try to push it for you.
Come up with a BENEFITS list for students. Not just a list of what you’ll do, but a list of why they should do it.
Find a local fitness professional and see if they’d be willing to donate their time to help out. It’s great press for their business. They also are certified (make sure they are!) and insured (again, make sure they are!) for this type of thing. Make sure they have experience working with students in the age groups that you mean.
The program would vary depending on what you were looking for. You’d want a physical component (actually exercising) that was safe, effective, and instructive. You’d want an educational component where students would learn basic nutrition, health, and exercise information. You’d also want a continuing education part where students could get more info.
I would keep them motivated by giving them all progress cards. Also establish prizes such as a "biggest loser/gainer" prize, a checkpoint prize (20 push-ups, 20 lbs down, etc), and maybe a big team prize.
I’m thinking about attending Clayton College of Natural Health. I’m curious if anyone knows of any licensing restrictions or legalities in Missouri for holisitc / natural health counselors? I’m told that you can open a practice as long as you don’t claim to treat, prevent, cure or diagnose illness, which basically means you could counsel people and work with nutrition, lifestyles and general wellness. Anyone know?
Yes you can counsel as long as you do not claim to treat or cure however you can say " Given the proper raw materials the body can heal itself."
…I am a professional speaker on the topic? I advocate the use of these lifestyles, therapies, and products for health, wellness, and slowing the aging process. I definitely practice what I preach. I use/do everything I recommend in my speeches. I am in my mid-50s and look (and act) much younger.
I know that I am a walking promotion for my speaking business and that my appearance and behavior validates my expertise/opinions in the audience’s eyes. Therefore, I have to believe that my personal use of vitamins, supplements, and other alternative therapies should fall under the category of a business expense and be tax deductible. I am told by colleagues that this is "probably" true, but no one can give me any hard data to back up that claim.
If you agree (or disagree), can you give me the references I would need and could use if the tax deductions are ever challenged by the IRS.
Thank you for you help.
The products you "take" yourself are not deductible, since they are personal in nature. The rationale is the same for your suits and personal appearance. You need to have nice clothes and have your hair cut etc for your speaking engagements, but they aren’t deductible either. You could wear that suit for something other than a speaking engagement. The supplements help you in other areas of your life, not just your professional one. However, you can deduct any supplements you use as samples or displays, that are not available for sale. If you have pills that are available for sale (inventory) they are deducted when sold.
