=This article is about nutrition that is connected to things it mostly talks about stress-nutritionit is very detailed because it shows all of the consecuences and all of the connections well almost all of them.=

= Isabella Jaramillo 10-5-12 = =[]= = This article is about how is bad nutrition connected to health problems and their consequences. = =Children are vulnerable to the effects of bad nutrition because their bodies are growing very fast. A poor diet can lead to serious health problems, which may persist into the kid's adult years.= = Weak Bones = =Poor nutrition that doesn't have enogh amounts of vitamin D, calcium, phosphate and magnesium can cause low bone growth in children. This means a kid's bones may not gain a normal amount of weight and strength by the time they reach adulthood.= = = = Overweight = =High-calorie diets that include excess fat and sugar combined with not making exercise contribute to childhood obesity. Children who are overweight are in risk for serious health problems, including type 2 diabetes, sleep disorders, asthma and bone anormalities.= = = = Tooth Decay = =Sugary snacks and beverages in a kid's diet may increase their risk of developing problems in their teeth. Untreated cavities are a serious problem for children, causing pain and difficulty eating. Consumption of soft drinks, beverages made from sugary powders and 100 percent fruit juice increase the risk of tooth decay among children.= -- = Isabella Jaramillo 10-5-12 = =[]= = I found a page that talks about how is bad nutrition connected to many kinds of deseases, that are called chronic deseases. = = = =There is a connection between nutrition and disease. It has been shown that several causes of death are related to nutrition. The effects of bad nutrition can contribute to heart disease, cancers, strokes, and diabetes. Some of the types of diseases are known as chronic diseases. These types of diseases are caused by many factors, one of them could have been caused by the choices in nutritional foods that a person makes, such as eating to much, or too little, or as not eating enouh nutrients or vitamins. Some ways to lower the risk of getting these chronic diseases are to live a healthy lifestyle by avoiding smoking, exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy body weight and maintaining a nutritious diet.= -- = Isabella Jaramillo 9-5-12 = =[]= =This article is about how bad nutrition can change people's behaviour supported by studies made with young criminals.=

=There have been studies done showing a connection between behavior and nutrition.= =One study made with young criminals showed that the people who had the worst behavior consumed less minerals and vitamins than everyone else.= =In another study of eight thousand teenagers, their diet was replaced to meals which were high in sugar as well as other who were changed to healthier diets. When the diets were changed, violent incidents went down by almost half.= =This concludes that having a healthier diet can decrease a persons violent behaviour, as well as not eating healthy can lead to more conflicts.=

= Isabella Jaramillo 9-5-12 = =[]= = This text is about how bad nutrition affects the kid's academic scores and shows a study that was made in some schools to prove this theory. = =Studies show there is a strong link between good nutrition and academic performance. A New York study found that even the slightest improvement in nutrition can positively impact academic scores. Schools are realising that improving a student's nutritional level will increase academic performance.= =6 to 11 year old kids without enough food were more likely to have repeated a grade and had very low test scores. Hungry children also have more behavioral and emotional problems. Not eating breakfast can affectsa child's speed and accuracy in problem-solving.=

= Isabella Jaramillo 6-5-12 = =[]= =I found a webpage about how stress can lead to bad nutrition, I read it and I thought it would be very usefull for how is bad nutrition connected to other things.=

=Stress can sometimes lead to unhealthy lifestyle patterns which lead to more stress! For example, when we’re hurried and under stress, we tend to make poor food choices, like these:= =These unhealthy habits can affect our bodies in many ways, such as:=
 * == Drinking Too Much Coffee: People often find themselves using coffee drinks to jump or start themselves in the morning, and a pattern of all-day coffee drinking can cause several problems.==
 * == Eating The Wrong Foods: Stressed people tend to eat foods high in fat, sugar and salt. One of the main problems that cause bad nutrition.==
 * == Skipping Meals: Another thing stressed people tend to do is skip meals. Have you ever found yourself rushing out of the house without a healthy breakfast or realizing you’re starving in the afternoon because you didn’t eat enough?==
 * == Eating when not hungry: Stress also makes us eat when we aren’t hungry, or eat foods that are bad for us.==
 * == Forgetting Water: With busy lives, it’s easy to forget to drink your water, in fact, a good portion of Americans drink no water, and get water only from soda or coffee. It is necessary to drink atleast from 4 to 8 glasses per day.==
 * == Fast Food: People these days are not eating well enough, as it’s easier to just drive through a fast food place or go to a restaurant than to go home and cook something.==
 * == Crash Diets: Some people intentionally eat less food than they need, or try dangerous food diets in order to lose the excess weight. Diets that aren’t balanced with fruits and vegetables, protein and healthy carbohydrates can often be bad for your health.==
 * == Blood Sugar Imbalances: When we don’t eat enough food, or don’t eat healthy enough, we can experience blood sugar fluctuations. These fluctuations can lead to mood changes, fatigue, poor concentration and other negative consequences in a short term, and greater health problems like hyperglycemia in a long term.==
 * == Caffeine Side Effects: Too much caffeine can lead to poor concentration and decrease effectiveness, sleeping problems, and increased levels of cortisol in the blood, as well as other negative effects.==
 * == Poor Health Outcomes: Poor nutrition can also lead to lowered immunity so you’re more exposed to illnesses. This can lead to other problems, including increased stress levels.==

=__ INTERVIEWS __= = Isabella Jaramillo 15-5-12 = =All our group made an interview to the head of the cafeteria of the school Luis Horacio Gomez and one question we asked to her was how is bad nutrition connected to different problems and she told us that one consequence is that the person doesn't show a good academic performance leading to less oportunities to learn. She also told us that bad nutrition can cause bad memory, one reason for having less oportunities to learn new things.= ===

=__ OBSERVATIONAL EXPERIENCE __= = Isabella Jaramillo & Maria Jose Aguayo 11-5-12 =

== Bad nutrition is connected to money because school food companies are the biggest producers of junk food and they are always thinking of how they are going to attract young children to buy their products and earn money. == =It is also connected with money because what the food companies are offering is comercial food, and it means it is made with cheep materials and ingredients, it means that if they sell it expensive, by dobleing their price and some times they even triple the original price.=

=I have seen that bad nutrition is connected to family problems, because the kid could be eating bad, and his/her parents will start telling their child to eat, and eventually it would become in a every day conflict between the kid and the parents.= = = =It could also happen that the parents want to take their kid to a nutritionist, or a specialist to see what is happening to them, and the kid would probably don’t like that idea and would start arguing about it.= =It also happens that parents don’t have time for teaching their children to eat healthy, and they don’t have time to prepare them their lunch with healthy food and it can cause conflict between them.=
