  2. This is Biology 206 Normal Nutrition Why are we here?

  3. A very large majority of you are majoring in health care fields such as nursing, health education, or social work. On a daily basis you will be dealing with patients who have nutrition-related health issues: Obesity Diabetes Hypertension Eating disorders Vitamin / mineral deficiencies Food allergies Drug-nutrient interactions Alcohol use Supplements Maternal nutrition Infant nutrition Geriatric nutrition Sports nutrition

  4. I’m also assuming that we are all interested in our own nutrition

  5. I’m also assuming that we are all interested in our own nutrition Most of you will be involved in ensuring that others (children, aging parents, ill partners, etc.) are properly nourished

  6. I’m also assuming that we are all interested in our own nutrition Most of you will be involved in ensuring that others (children, aging parents, ill partners, etc.) are properly nourished Some of you may become involved with global nutrition issues

  7. I’m also assuming that we are all interested in our own nutrition Most of you will be involved in ensuring that others (children, aging parents, ill partners, etc.) are properly nourished Some of you may become involved with global nutrition issues So: You need to have a foundational understanding of - The language of nutrition - The basic principles of nutrition - Relationship between nutrition and health/disease

  8. I’m also assuming that we are all interested in our own nutrition Most of you will be involved in ensuring that others (children, aging parents, ill partners, etc.) are properly nourished Some of you may become involved with global nutrition issues So: You need to have a foundational understanding of - The language of nutrition - The basic principles of nutrition - Relationship between nutrition and health/disease Let’s talk about how we are going to do that.

  9. There are four major components of this class: Lectures and discussions in class Five assignments to be completed outside of class and turned in during class Three exams based on in-class lecture and discussions Six unannounced quizzes given in class Details of the course are in the course syllabus, which (along with other course information) is available through the course website http://course1.winona.edu/ethompson/206.htm

  10. If you keep up with your studying and do the assignments, this should not be a difficult class.

  11. If you keep up with your studying and do the assignments, this should not be a difficult class. Last spring (2012): 67% of the students earned A’s or B’s 37% of the students earned C’s, D’s, or F’s (almost all due to skipping class, not bothering to study enough, and/or not turning in assignments)

  12. I also recognize that some of you may have special circumstances which can affect your performance in this class such as disabilities, health concerns, and parenting responsibilities. I am willing to provide some flexibility on attendance, quizzes, exams, and assignments if I am aware of these in sufficient time to make appropriate accommodations. Please contact me early in the semester to discuss these and avoid problems. The university also provides many resources to help students with special needs succeed, some of which are listed at http://course1.winona.edu/ethompson/specialcircumstances.htm

  13. Questions?

  14. Questions? If not, let’s begin with a discussion of why we make the food choices we do and an overview of basic human nutrition.
