Those are three benefits that you will get if you’re more intelligent. Like I said in the beginning I would prefer to be more intelligent than be more popular. The reasons why I think like that are that I will be more successful in life than the popular kids with a better job and a better education. In addition popular kids have more friends but they are not that smart as the more intelligent
Outline and evaluate biological explanations of one eating disorder An attempt at explaining anorexia nervosa (AN) has been explained by Guisinger’s (2003) adapted to flee famine hypothesis (AFFH). AFFH fits under the evolutionary approach, but is also a biological explanation. Guisinger proposes that AN is part of behaviours adaptive in the environment of the evolutionary adaptation (EEA). In hunter-gatherer society, there would have been prolonged periods of famine and it would have been necessary to move on regularly when food resources were exhausted. To cope with this, people would have keep active despite lack of energy.
Different cultures will select food their society is comfortable with or has a plentiful about of. For example in certain Asian cultures Canine is considered to be a delicacy, while in America Dogs are pets not food. Livestock throughout history has always carried a higher price than plants, the more livestock you owned the more wealth you possessed. Now different cultures place different values on livestock. For example Muslims, Hindu, and Jewish cultures find pork to be a taboo, in India they consider the Cow to be a scared animal.
During this time they also started thinking ahead and analyzing possible consequences. The changes in our ancestors’ ways of thinking led to the development of their bigger brains. As our ancestors’ brains grew larger they needed to eat more and more plants, nuts, and berries than usual or they had to find a new source of food to support their brains along with the rest of their bodies. The solution to their problem was meat; meat is high in protein and calories which would allow our ancestors to function and use their brains at an optimal level. To their fortune there was a lot of meat in Eastern Africa to go around.
Conventionally raised cattle have long been fed fats and proteins along with grass and grains; it helps them gain weight more quickly. Unfortunately, much of the fat and protein they’ve been fed in more recent times comes from other animals. This to me is a huge ethical issue; we have gone from letting our cattle naturally eat grass, which they have always done, to changing their diets to something completely different. The FDA still permits cattle to eat feed containing byproducts of pigs, fish, chicken, and horses, among other animals, to promote weight gain. This weight gain is not necessary, it is just desired because cattle can be slaughtered at a younger age and more meat can be produced.
But is this true? As we can truly say, nutritionism is not actually benefiting society in general because it lacks real food, it’s more expensive, and causes many diseases; however, nutritionism can be very successful for the world of business of industries. When we talk about real food, it means recognizable, good quality, whole food that rots when it's kept for too long. These foods are the ones our ancestors used to eat on a regular basis until it was replaced with a whole new type of nutrition one, in which chemically-infused, food- like materials focused mainly on nutritional facts. For example, when we go in the supermarket to buy food we read the facts in the back of the product checking what types nutrition it has, and how much it has.
This means that they need different types of nutrition’s. For example since their metabolism tend to burn the food faster they need some type of heavy food but not too heavy so soon their metabolism won’t be able to break it down; which will cause them to gain weight. Pollan does point out in his book how fast food is not very healthy and how it is a poor quality of food. I am here to correct what he said towards fast food. Fast food can be good for you if you eat the fast food correctly.
First, there needs to be more choices of food to eat. Majority of the people would like to have more than two choices of food. It would give people a better choice of food to eat. You would not have to choose from ala carte as much if you had more and better choices. Ala cart is more expensive than the main lunch.
Genetically Engineered Foods Food is the esscence of life and without it, life would fail to exist; however, the wrong nature of food can lead to the same fatal outcome. Foods that are genetically engineered are based on the premise that foods are made better for humans in many different ways (Eschholz and Rosa 537). Using the latest technology, scientists are able to create crops that are more productive to feed the ever growing population or by introducing new traits into already existing foods to make them overall better; it is easy to see why many people would think that this new technology is just another improvement in everyday lives. When modifying the food, scientists take a gene from one species and insert it into a new species to enhance desired traits such as resistance to herbicides or to provide more nutritional results. This way of improving foods has been taking place traditionally by just crossing two plants together and hoping that the new traits are taken without any negative ones (543).
Because of fast food a lot of people are unhealthy, obese, and use mass production to feed everyone. Chicken is the most popular meat that is used in fast food, thus resulting in mass production. Another reason for mass production is the fast growth of population in America. Because of mass production many chickens and other animals are injected with hormones so they can grow bigger, fatter and heavier. Mass production may not be perfect, but it is not bad.
