- Hand student fill in the blank nutrition PowerPoint sheets out. Observation (F)
- Go through the PPT with the class and have them fill in the items Food log (S)
missing from their copy of the presentation
- Open the image of the food label (In the PowerPoint). Go through the
nutrients on the food label and show students how to read a label.
Have students fill in the information from the food label on their copy of
the notes packet. ie. How much protein is in the sample, calories,
portion size, etc.
Lesson Activity #2: Analyzing their Food with the Food Guide (10
minutes)
Pull up food guide on slide and tell students we are going to go into more
details after trying to use it to analyze their food logs.
Using the food guide for recommended daily intakes have students look at their
two day food log and see where they met recommendations and where they
didnt. Use worksheet
*** Have the portion sizes implements out so they can see what constitutes ***
ASK: Did anyone have any issues when doing this analysis? What are some
problems with the food guide?
Changes that have been made over the years have improved it,
but it is still lacking.
Choices let you off the hook by still incorporating negative foods
and processed foods in the most often choice category (Choose
most often, sometimes, least often)
Let students break up into groups of 4-5 and create a scoreboard on the
whiteboard to track money.
We will talk more about goal setting at the end of the unit. But ask students to
commit to one nutritional goal for the week. It can be drinking more water,
eating more veggies, avoiding poop, tell them to write it on a post it note and
stick it on the wall.

Assessment
We talked about nutrition including the Canada Food Guide, but those are general
guidelines. Guidelines made for the average person.
Today we are going to talk about customizing your nutrition based on you and your
personal needs.
Weight Loss slide, tell them that we are not addressing healthy eating for
weight loss in this unit. But if we are talking calories in and out we need to say
to see a professional before trying a weight loss program and to do so SAFE.
Some teens try to lose weight by eating very little; cutting out whole
groups of foods like foods with carbohydrates, or "carbs;" skipping
meals; or fasting. These approaches to losing weight could be
unhealthy because they may leave out important nutrients your
body needs.
Athletes & Nutrition If you participate in sports you require more food
because youre burning more energy.
SAY: You are going to get your customized calories and food serving
recommendation from the U.S. National Choose My Plate website.

Youre going to learn to create a meal plan but it also has to come in under
budget. It has been proven that eating healthy is more expensive, but with
careful planning it doesnt have to be.
Meal plan. Open Microsoft Word Templates and type in Meal Planner for a
create weekly meal planning template. Use the list of your favourite foods in
each food group you listed, and plan your meals accordingly.
A great way to keep things under budget is to eat similar meals. Ex. If you buy
rice, create different rice dishes for your meals.
Think of the various budget items discussed and try and incorporate them into
your meals.
After your meal plan is done, you are going to see if you can come in under an
$80 budget.
Budget. Next, go to the Superstore website and price out the items you created
on your weekly menu. Use the budget table worksheet to help you.
Turn in your food log & meal plan today for marks.

ASK: What is body image?
ASK: Why do you think we talk about nutrition and body image in the same unit?
Show slide 1- After ASK: What are the three body types?
Show slide 2
No matter how weight loss is achieved, the person with anorexia has an intense
fear of gaining weight.
Anorexia can be very difficult to overcome. But with treatment, you can gain a
better sense of who you are, return to healthier eating habits and reverse some
of anorexia's serious complications.
Binge Eating
Like bulimia, binge eaters consume an excessive amount of food in one sitting.
However, binge eaters do not purge their calories. Instead, they deal with
feelings of extreme shame or guilt from the binge-eating habits.
In addition to the above mentioned eating disorders, there are also other eating
disorders that do not fit in those categories. These are described as EDNOS, or
eating disorders not otherwise specified. They are disorders involving food that
causes significant distress or impairment on an individual, but does not meet
the criteria for the specific eating disorders. Some examples of these include:
ASK: What are some of the potential reasons a person will develop an eating
disorder?
Open by saying unhealthy weight loss or gain is not always in the extreme form
of eating disorders. Many people think that supplements are a healthy and
natural way to meet their body goals.
Creatine
Studies do suggest that it is effective in the short term, when used with
a carefully designed training program. However, there are still no
studies showing that it is safe over the long term, and it has not been
tested in teenagers.
known side effects include weight gain and muscle cramps and an increased
risk of heat illness associated with dehydration. There have also been individual
reports of kidney problems, high blood pressure and heart problems from
creatine use. As a result, major sports organizations strongly discourage young
athletes from using it.
Whey Protein: Even athletes who are training hard should not eat more than 2
g of protein per kilogram of body weight per day. The body cannot use it, and
too much may be harmful.
Diet Pills
The popular weight loss aid Hydroxycut was recalled and banned in 2004 when
the FDA discovered that the product contained a toxic ingredient.
The company reformulated their diet pills and began selling them again.
Just five years later in 2009, Hydroxycut was recalled and banned once more
after a 19-year-old user died and 23 people reported significant liver damage.
The FDA warned the public not to use Hydroxycut diet pills.
However, the company once again reformulated its product and got it back on
the market, where it remains available today.
Talk to your elbow partner and try to set a SMART goal based on this course.
Based on your food log, your analysis, and everything weve been over- you are
going to set two SMART goals related to your health for the year.

Worksheet- What do you know about sleep? (7-8 minutes) Observation (F)
https://science.education.nih.gov/supplements/nih3/sleep/guide/nih_sleep_master
s.pdf
ASK: Have students pull out a piece of paper and write down the average time
they go to bed and wake up on weeknights and on weekends.
ASK: Get a sense on the average amount of hours the class gets at night.
Teenagers need more sleep than adults eight and a half to nine and a quarter
hours a night, according to the sleep foundation but the times at which they get
sleepy and are able to awaken naturally and feel rested shift in a way that does
not mesh with the start times at most schools.
Review- How are the sleep needs of teens different from those of younger
children and adults?
Describe the disconnect between the natural sleep rhythms of most teens and the
start of the school day in most school districts.
Sleep Deprivation: Ask class what happens to them if they dont get a good
nights sleep. Compare their answers with those on the PP.
Exercise: Ask them to write down on a post it, one thing that keeps them from
getting enough sleep. If they have more than one, use a different post it from each.
Then have them stick them to the whiteboard keeping post its with similar reasons
together.
Reflect on what the most popular reasons are and what they can do about it.
Stay away from stimulants like caffeine in the evening, including
chocolate, colas, and other caffeinated beverages. These delay sleep and
increase night waking.
