"FAD" diets

Finally, I am trudging the way towards a professional career. =P

Clinical nutrition, (grind) a very well-known course for its complexity and professionalism. Many failed, but some passed with flying colors =)It's not the lecture slides that's hard per se, it's about the whole clinical nutrition, from basis of reading physicians' beautiful handwriting, to reviewing abstracts for specific studies. So much hard-earned money is spent on textbooks, reference book, drug medication handbook, medical dictionaries, printer inks, papers............... hopefully, it's of a good reason and worth the price.
- I enjoy being in this class-

Here are some info to share about " FAD" diets that i've learnt today.
- be careful when you'r dieting, remember to supplement yourself with sufficient macronutrients especially protein, and important micronutrients eg. Ca, Fe
- You've to burn -500kcal/d to lose a pound in a week. - preferably done by increasing your physical activity
- High servings of fruits & veg has a stronger correlation towards decreasing Cardiovascular disease, compared to low amount of fat consumed
- Don't over do it, you will suffer from malnutrition/electrolyte imbalance etc...

Alright, that's it for now, something put off my mood in continuing..

An extremely obese lady/girl/women has move to the vacant room beside me, i tried not to be racist, but she's a french black................I dont have high expectation becoming her "best friend" -as if I want to.. but just please, hope that she doesn't start blowing up the room with rock music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SVP.
