While watching Saturday morning cartoons, Justine’s daughter Claire saw a commercial for a high-fat, high-sugar toaster pastry m

arketed to children. At the grocery store, Claire sees the product and begs her mom to buy it. Justine is appalled to see one pastry has 300 kilocalories, 10 grams of fat, and 6 grams of saturated fat. Although the pastry has 3 grams of dietary fiber, Justine notices it does not state "good source of fiber" on the front of the packaging like some other foods with 3 grams of fiber. Why can’t this food be called a "good source" of fiber?

Answer:

The roughage or fiber is important part of the diet as it improves the digestion and  lowers the heart related disease. Two main two types of fiber are insoluble fiber and soluble fiber.

The pastry is not a good source of fiber as it contains around 4 gm of saturated fat. The amount of fat ( 13 gm), cholesterol ( 60 milligram) and sodium is more than the prescribed values for the individuals diet. The amount of fiber also depends on the other food ingredients as well.

10%

Explanation:

The thermic effect of food is the calories burned for metabolizing the food eaten. Hence, thermic effect is estimated to be 10% of calories intake i.e. 10% of the calories taken within each meal are burned during the metabolism of food. the exact thermic effect of each meal may vary with the constituents of food taken as some food take more energy to metabolize while other take less energy to metabolize. For example, protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, poultry, dairy, legumes and seeds uses high energy content for metabolism and thus have higher thermic effect.

frozen [14]

Answer:

You’re taking a huge risk.

If one of those is high risk sexual behaviors you may end up with an STD or even pregnant. Often times people in those situations can not afford to get the treatment/ help required.

Which would not be an example of techniques used to build physical activity self-efficacy? A. Maintain a physical activity log t
sammy [17]

Answer:

Help identify barriers of physical activity and exercise

Explanation:

From all the options A to D, one of the best techniques to build physical activity self-efficacy is to provide exposure to vicarious experiences. When we see people around us that we ca relate to excelling in their physical activities and exercises, it can stir us up. Other options are also very great techniques which involves doing something. You can only maintain a physical activity log if you are actually exercising and it is good to track your successes as this helps to promote more successes. However, simply identifying barriers of physical activity and exercise is not an option enough to promote self-efficacy. It is not identifying that is the problem, it is finding a solution that matters.
