Write and design an educational handout on some aspect of nutrition.

Write and design an educational handout on some aspect of nutrition. This should be a two page handout (the front and back of one sheet of paper) of 600-800 words (not including the references section). Clarity, grammar, syntax and spelling will count. If writing is not your strength, please have a friend, family member or writing tutor review your handout before handing it in. Write in standard paragraph format, not bulleted lists.
Select at topic that you are interested in and that would be of interests / value to an average person. (You do not have to choose a topic that would be of use to all individuals, instead you can chose something of value to a subcategory of people, for example athletes, pregnant women, or parents of young children.) Write for an audience of average adults intelligent but not necessarily knowledgeable on nutritional or scientific topics. Please use a 12 point font.
You may choose to start with a topic that is discussed in the textbook, but you will need to find and include more information on your topic than is included in the textbook. Use a minimum of five sources for your handout. Please use reputable sources. Wikipedia should not be one of your sources, nor should anonymous blog postings or articles found on websites devoted to selling products. The information you include in your handout should be supported by scientific research. Because the quality of information of the web varies widely, only websites managed by reliable sources are acceptable. These include, but are not limited to: Federal and state agencies, for example the Vermont Department of Health Universities and university extension services Well-known organizations, for example the American Dietetic Association If youre unsure if a web source is acceptable, please check with the instructor before using it.
This is a short writing assignment, but it is a higher proportion of your grade than your weekly writing assignments. Please take the time to research your topic well and to produce a polished piece of writing. If you use photos or images in your handout, remember that sources of images need to be cited.
Although I want you chose a topic of personal interest, here are some ideas if you are having a hard time coming up with a topic: Consuming adequate calcium for those who are lactose intolerant Maintaining high vitamin content in preserved fruits and vegetables Reducing sodium in your diet Reducing processed sugar in your diet Health benefits of unusual whole grains, and how to cook them Getting enough iron during pregnancy
