REFLECTION ON PROCESSES AND LEARNING POINTS
I’ve learnt that I don’t actually practice healthy eating, and I only realized that after recording down what I ate for 3 consecutive days. I realized that I eat chicken and burger almost everyday in a week, and that has a lot of cholesterol. The dietary fiber that I’m in taking is not enough and is less than the others that are unhealthier. The nutritional tools were useful because they helped to break down the components in the food that I would not have known how to. It also showed the unhealthier food and the healthier ones, so that I will know what to eat more of and what to eat less of in the future. The one-dish meal that I suggested is healthy because by eating it, I get carbohydrate, protein, dietary fiber and energy. Most people don’t intake as much dietary fiber, hence it is important to find a meal with more dietary fiber in it.
