Considering the clients’ weight management concerns and after tabulating the objective and subjective data we ascertained group diagnoses of Imbalanced Nutrition: Less than Body Requirements, Imbalanced Nutrition: More than Body Requirements, Imbalanced Nutrition: Risk for More than Body Requirements, and Readiness for Enhanced Body Nutrition.
Is this sentence okay? Does it need a comma after the word "data"? Is it clear?
Personally, I would do it with the following punctuation, just for clarity.

Few days ago, nutrition researchers advised that adults should have at least five (servings) a day of vegetables but it was not clear in the reports what is meant by a serving for these different vegetables. Any specific data?, thanks.
A serving size is:
One medium-size fruit
1/2 cup raw, cooked, frozen or canned fruits (in 100% juice) or vegetables
3/4 cup (6 oz.) 100% fruit or vegetable juice
1/2 cup cooked, canned or frozen legumes (beans and peas)
1 cup raw, leafy vegetables
1/4 cup dried fruit

hi, i am studying nutrition at university, this semester is my final semester, i have one year time to complete my thesis, next year May, i have to pass up my thesis. but why? why we have to do thesis before we graduate?
i need 60 families to be my thesis subjects. when i start looking for my subjects, i felt like i wanna drop out, people refuse to participate cos i need their highly co-operation for 1 month. when they reject me, i felt hopeless. thank god, i managed to get 60 subjects in 2 months time. now, i am analyzing my data. i feel depress, every now and then, i am looking at the same thing, they are boring. furthermore, some of the data is not complete where i have to rewrite to make it complete.
can anyone give me advise or counseling? i need strong and convincing reason, so that i can convince myself to continue.
It draws together everything you have learned and demonstrates the whole skills set to your supervisor, who can then allocate you your final mark and confirm that you are ready to complete your degree. For instance; time management, recruitment of participating families, collecting of data, analysis of data, carrying out a literature review, critical analysis evaluation techniques, working alongside a supervisor, the personal growth it takes to carry on a long project etc. etc.
Basically, it takes self determination to carry out such a long project (I have done two now at undergrad and masters and can absolutely relate to you on how hard it is to continue). But consider what you would get if you didn't complete it, what you will be getting out of it will be your degree, along with all the skills I mentioned above (which are really useful in the workplace too).
Keep going, it is worth it in the end.

As a registered dietitian at Jones Hospital, you are instructed to write a policy statement on nutrition assessment procedures for all new patients. Which of the following are the most useful parameters for the nutrition assessment of individuals?
A. Diet recall, food likes and dislikes, allergies, favorite family recipes
B. Anthropometric data, physical examinations, food likes and dislikes, family tree
C. Diet record that includes what the patient usually eats, which will provide sufficient information
D. Historical information, anthropometric data, physical examinations, laboratory tests
Hey! I’m currently in a Medical Nutrition class working on things like this.
I know it’s not A and definitely not C.
Depending on the situation, we like to know their diet history as far as how frequently they like to enjoy certain foods so B could be a possibility but I’m saying that D would be the strongest answer.
We generally try to use the anthropometric data to see how they are comparing to where they should be, the physical examinations to medically compare, laboratory test bring us a great amount of useful information because we’re able to see what nutrients are in the blood or urine or fecal matter. The historical information can be varied so if it can imply a diet history then that is the answer. It also can show the certain conditions that run in the family which helps for preparing the diet and education for that person.
Hope that helps!

I’m very confused on where to start for this. I know I must formulate an idea, but can I latch on to a professor that is already conducting research in that area, and propose my own question to it and analyze data from that professor’s research and write my thesis from it? Or do I have to do the study from scratch and design and conduct everything - blood draws, interviews, etc. Also, how do I form a thesis committee and where does the funding come from for the research?
Note: I don't plan on formulating my thesis for at least a year - I have at least 2 years in my program. I am seeking out pointers to do at-home preparation and become familiar with the process before delving in seriously.
Talk to your advisor, that’s what they are there for and will have better information than what you could ever get from here.
If you are so clueless, you may need to think of a change in career.

people who can afford to goto the doctor and get antibiotic, or those who can't?
If the rate of contact between people who can afford health care, and the people who can't goes down by extending Healthcare access to those who can't afford it, do you think that your chances of getting sick from them would decrease, and reduce your own medical expenses?
Children and adults in families with incomes below or near
the federal poverty level have worse health than those with
higher incomes (see Appendix II, Poverty for a definition of
the federal poverty level). Although, in some cases, illness
can lead to poverty, more often poverty causes poor health
by its connection with inadequate nutrition, substandard
housing, exposure to environmental hazards, unhealthy
lifestyles, and decreased access to and use of health care

Brian, please do more research and try to realize how poor a person actually has to be to recieve medical coverage through welfare.
people who cannot afford medical bills don't have to be destitute, and not all of them qualify for the welfare medical coverage. That superior medicaid is being turn down by most medical providers forcing recipients to use the more expensive option of emergency room visits instead of office visits.
- I, Robot -, I realize that, but i am speaking generally, in our daily lives, and the people we come into contact with.
Though I generally agree with your assertion, an outbreak can occur anywhere and from anyone. Disease does not discriminate on socio-economic status; as anyone who has traveled abroad can tell you, someone can easily bring an uknown virus or bacteria into the country and if it's easily communicable, an outbreak can occur, even amongst those "better off."

I've been researching all morning about how can I create a healthy menu, based on the calories that I need since I'm breastfeeding. I am confused since La Leche League says that while breastfeeding, calorie intake should be about 1500 to 1800 calories per day. http://www.llli.org/FAQ/diet.html
I signed up in nutrition data, and according to what I weight, height and that I am breastfeeding, it says calorie intake should be of 2413. www.nutritiondata.com
And then I looked up a menu example for breastfeeding moms and I found that it should be 2700 calories : http://parenting.ivillage.com/newborn/nbreastfeed/0,,3×8b,00.html
I'm so confused, I'm not good at counting calories!!!!! I wish there just was a menu example that could give me ideas on what to eat. That last one with the 2700 calories, I think its just too much food.
I'll appreciate if you help me understand this.
You need not worry so much! It's great that you do, and you want to have the best possible diet, but there is no perfect amount of calories, or food that you should be in-taking for your baby to have the best milk — it will be perfect and just as nutritious whatever you eat and however much you eat.
Just make sure you are eating enough to keep yourself full, and don't eat junk (although, even if you did, your milk would be no less nutritious).
"Women on even very low calorie diets usually make enough milk, at least until the mother's calorie intake becomes critically low for a prolonged period of time. Generally, the baby will get what he needs. Some women worry that if they eat poorly for a few days this also will affect their milk. There is no need for concern. Such variations will not affect milk supply or quality. It is commonly said that women need to eat 500 extra calories a day in order to breastfeed. This is not true. Some women do eat more when they breastfeed, but others do not, and some even eat less, without any harm done to the mother or baby or the milk supply. The mother should eat a balanced diet dictated by her appetite. Rules about eating just make breastfeeding unnecessarily complicated. "

Ideally one where I could “build a salad” and have it calculate the macronutrient ratios (protein, carbs, fats) and nutrition label data. Thanks!
calorielab.com or caloriecounter.com are two of the best.

I've been looking at several caloring counting sites (like the daily plate) to try to figure out the nutrition data for my lunch. They put a sushi bar in my cafeteria at work, and I love it - but I feel like I'm not adding it up right.
1 maki roll (6 pieces, about 1/2" in diameter) of tempura shrimp
4 pieces of nigiri (2 eel, 2 salmon)
Does anyone have any idea about the calories? Is it about 650? That's what I came up with. Also, is sushi 2 or 3 times a week too much?
Thanks!
absolutely not. My friend opened up a sushi restaurant in Sacramento and if I could I'd eat there everyday. unfortunately its not in my budget. I think the one thing you have to worry the most is the rice. I would suggest eating more sashimi than nigiri or rolls. Look at the Japanese culture, they are trim and or fit as any other culture, with the exception of sumo wrestlers and they have to put effort into gaining that much weight.
