What you will learn
Ultimately, the student will make his or her own dietary choices, but they will do so with confidence backed by knowledge.
You will be able to readily distinguish the difference between healthy foods and manufactured products that are called food, but they really aren't.
You will be able to have intelligent conversations with people about their individual dietary choices, without getting defensive or offensive.
Social events may put you in a challenging position with tempting but unhealthy food choices. You'll now be able to strategically manage these situations.
You'll know the best blood tests to request from your doctor (including fasting insulin, triglycerides, HDL, HbA1c) to assess whether your diet is healthy.
You'll be able to quickly evaluate food labels in your mind and make wiser food choices by thinking of sugar in terms of teaspoons rather than grams.
By using a food logging app you'll be able to calculate your carbs, protein and fat and evaluate your food choices and create new, healthy eating plans.
On packaged foods there are two labels: 1) a list of ingredients, and 2) nutrition facts. You'll look there and be able to decide quickly if it's a good choice.
Using a glucometer, you'll be able to test your own glucose response to any food to see how much your blood sugar rises after eating it.
You can research and source your food choices in person by speaking with vendors at farmers' markets or visiting actual farms yourself.
From now on you will know how to evaluate a mainstream diet-related news story and recognize whether or not it has merit.
For metabolic health and weight loss, you can experiment with time-restricted eating, i.e. eating during a relatively short time period and fasting in between.
