What I've been eating:
Reflection and concluding statement: Recommended servings show how much energy you
need to function properly and how many servings of each nutrient your body can digest without
turning the food into fat. Each nutrient has a different way of conversing to support homeostasis.
Carbohydrates metabolize themselves into energy. Proteins are converted to muscle. Lipids
transport protein to most tissues forcixudation. Nucleic acids are synthesized and degraded.
After recording and analyzing what I've eaten compared to the recommended portions I've
realized some things that need to be changed to keep my body in homeostasis. I need to eat
less carbohydrates, replacing them with more fruits and vegetables. I should also increase my
intake of dairy, and decrease my intake in meat.
