Superfoods

At the beginning of this week I finished off my unit 2 project. It strays a little bit from the rubric that I made because of the information relevance but it is still based on the Canadian Food Guide, which is what the PLOs wanted when I made up the course. I also used MyPyramid (basically the american food guide) to help me with it.

I've now started Unit 3 which looks at some different components of nutrition (antioxidents, etc) as well as different ways of eating (vegetarian/ vegan diets). It also looks at what are called "superfoods", and there are a lot of different opinions on which foods are true superfoods. It seems that almost every food was considered a super food at one point! I think I will end up just looking at the ones that come up the most and be very aware of what websites and resources I am using to get the info.
