Unit 8-P2 In this essay I am going to explain different psychological approaches to health practice. Social learning theory According to this theory, we need to have a good role model in our life, so that we can learn good behaviours from them. For people who want to eat healthy and be healthy, celebrity such as, Jamie Oliver would be a very good role model, because he teach people to eat healthy to have a healthy life. He also brought lots of publicity to the healthy eating campaign. If someone eats junk food all the time and that person’s mother or friend told him/her to eat healthy, it’s less likely that he/she will listen to them, but if he/she admires Jamie Oliver and he suggests to eat healthy, then there is more possibility for that person to follow what he says.
While it is more convenient to just pull through, it would be more cost efficient to get sandwich meat and freezer food; not to mention it’s healthier. Especially considering they sit for the majority of the time not burning even a small portion of the calories they intake compared to the average American. As for the graveyard shift doctors, nurses, etc. they have every option afforded to them as any other working man or woman. They may not be able to run to Applebee’s and get a fresh salad but just a little planning and they can bring their own meals.
Although many people may not like natural food because it do not have not flavor, natural food does provide enough nutrients, so people can have more energy in their daily life performance. For instance, when I eat homemade food, I have sufficient energy to be able to study, play soccer, and go to work. Therefore, I enjoy more to eat homemade food than eating processing food. Pollen believes Cooking is one of the most important health consequences of buying food from local farmers” (Pollen539) I agree, because I feel so different when I do not eat homemade food. As a result, eating homemade food with natural ingredients, it would help me out to do better of my daily activities.
Parents are the ultimate authority when it comes down to what their children eat. Of course they can’t all always see what their children eat, but if they teach them healthy eating habits they’re less likely to go for the wrong food choice. (junk food) “encourage these kinds of simple polices in the home, they might make some progress against the purveyors of fat food and cholesterol.” (Wientraub paragraph 6) Parents tell their children what to eat from birth they might as well teach them healthy eating habits. Exercise should be an essential part of life. Parents should teach their children good exercise habits as well.
All they do is just try to change the food that is served, but they don’t seem to worry about physical education getting funds cut. Is your Child Overweight? Just as kids are being told to exercise more to improve health, they are finding fewer opportunities to do so on a regular school day. Physical Education should be mandatory K-12. Why?
It’s known as diet and exercise; you hear it all the time when talking about weight loss. It is really simple to blame the food industry on why so many more people are obese today, but what you eat is your decision and healthy food is available to everyone who is interested in eating healthy. Sometimes people have a hard time fitting a workout into their busy schedule. You can procrastinate a simple workout all you want, but it doesn’t take a lot to take the stairs instead of the elevator, take a fifteen minute walk every night, or to play an active game with your family. Instead of video games, encourage your children to play outside when it is warm and get them to have an active lifestyle.
My well philosophy talks about having a clean mind, body and soul so in order for me to be moving toward achieving this goal I would need to make sure that I am feeding my body with food that is nutrient. What my current eating habits were and what they are now that the semester is near a close is night and day different. I went from going out and eating fast food whenever I was hungry, to instead now I take the time to pack either some food so that if I feel I am hungry and I want to eat but I do have nutritious choices at my disposal. What my eating habits were like before the semesters were that if I was hungry I was just go and get some fast food from the closet
They increase their levels of sugar, sodium and fats. The central focus should be on their diet. Many people, including those who work for those major snack companies such as Nabisco and Hostess, state that eating junk food is fine, just as long as one exercises daily to burn off the calories. However, they don’t say that indulging in the snack may have consequences later in life such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke, sleep apnea, and asthma. Therefore, the focus should be more on the diet of the child rather than exercising.
Lack of time due to homework, sports participation, and social lives can hurt healthful eating. This is not necessary though. So many foods are available to us. Speaking from experience, college students (in their freshman year) can be placed in a couple of dietary categories. Some teens are stereotypically what one may consider to be normal.
), engage in sports (e.g. biking, walking, swimming etc.) or learn (e.g. computer, languages etc.). My definition of leisure is very close to Raymond Williams’ definition: “…the real dividing line between the things we call work and the things we call leisure is that in leisure, however active we may be, we make our own choices and our own decisions; we feel for the time being that our life is our own” (Raymond Williams, 1961: 926) Leisure does not mean doing only one of these activities.
