    The document summarizes the speaker's presentation at a Wellness Day event on healthy eating. Some key points from the presentation are that nutritional labels should show nutrients at 20% or more of the daily value if they are beneficial, and 5% or less if they pose health risks. The DASH diet was created for blood pressure but also helps with weight loss, cancer prevention, diabetes, and neurological diseases. Fad diets like keto may work temporarily but are too restrictive to sustain long-term, unlike the DASH or Mediterranean diets. Healthy eating is not restrictive or boring as most believe - it involves moderation rather than exclusion of certain foods.

    On September 9th 2022, I participated in the Wellness Day event for my IPE.

    At

    the start of the event all students of the various professions met to discuss how our

    professions are interrelated. It prompted us to work together and rely on each

    other’s professional expertise in order to better care for patients, since we all have

    partial knowledge of each other’s specialties.

    After the icebreakers, there were various seminars to choose from that could

    help us to better ourselves and whose information we could use to educate patients

    and the community. The seminar I chose to attend was “Healthy Eating”. I decided

    to attend this because I am passionate about nutrition and the way that one’s diet

    may either initiate, exacerbate, or in some instances, cure diseases. Some very

    interesting things I learned are that when reading nutritional labels, if the nutrient is

    something that you need a decent amount of in your diet, then it should be 20% of

    the daily value or more. Adversely, if the nutrient, in greater quantities, poses a risk

    for dietary or health issues (eg. added sugar for diabetes or salt for hypertension), it

    is recommended that it be consumed at 5% or less. The speaker also explained

    that the DASH diet although initially created to help reduce blood pressure, it has

    also been instrumental in weight loss, reduction in cancer risks, diabetes, as well as

    Alzheimers and dementia. DASH is an example of a daily diet that is sustainable.

    Fad diets, such as keto, are popular because they are easy to follow since they

    have guidelines for success, but they are only work temporarily. This is because

    they are too restrictive and too are not sustainable for a lifetime, unlike the DASH or

    Mediterranean diets.

    Healthy eating is something the general community does not have a good idea

    how to do successfully. Most people think healthy eating consists of just eating

    salads regularly and deem that boring. After taking this seminar I learned that

    healthy eating is not restrictive. It is all inclusive, but the person must eat certain

    things in moderation.
