Explain what digestive ailments can be addressed by (1) soluble and (2) insoluble fiber. Make sure to address how each type of fiber works in your answer - Soluble fiber slows glucose absorption and fat, so it's associated with lowering cholesterol (and it provides satiety). Soluble fiber dissolves in water creating an intestinal barrier to block absorption. Insoluble fiber can improve constipation. It does not dissolve in water and is not broken down by intestinal bacteria so it increases stool mass and speed of passage through the large intestine

You are counseling an obese 26 year old male. He is confused as to why his recent dietary changes are not resulting in weight loss. He shares with you that he has stocked his fridge and pantry with only lowfat and fat-free foods. Explain to him why these types of foods may be detrimental to his weight loss goals - The calorie difference between low-fat and its regular counterpart can be marginal as extra sugar (or salt) can be used to improve the taste.

The end result is often the consumption of more calories than if you had just ingested the regular product initially

(A) Explain how type 2 diabetes occurs and the disease's symptoms, Type 2 diabetes is most commonly linked to being overweight and consuming a poor diet. Blood sugar levels remain high and are not properly regulated. When blood sugar rises, the pancreas is responsible for producing insulin. The release of insulin then triggers the liver to take up glucose from the blood and convert it into glycogen for storage and the muscles and cells to absorb glucose. When an individual has type 2 diabetes, the pancreas either does not produce a sufficient amount of insulin to bring blood sugar levels back down to normal or the body is resistant to insulin. The pancreas is overworked from the constant intake of excessive amounts of glucose.

Compare and contrast (i.e. explain the similarities and differences) between undernutrition and overnutrition. Include the terms' definitions and how they influence health outcomes.

Undernutrition and overnutrition are both considered to be a state of malnutrition.
