Document Summary

Critically think about health claims and scienti c information relating to food. Show understanding of scienti c studies and info relating to food. Explain different ways of scienti c research methods. You can make the right observations but that does not mean you"ll get to the correct conclusion. There is a lot of confusion surrounding the foods you should eat and not eat (the information keeps changing every day about food) These days, we want to know what we are eating, we don"t only care about wether the food tastes good anymore. We are what you eat is somewhat true since most of our body is made up or built from food we consume every day. Something that is natural doesn"t mean its good or bad for you, it all depends of its composition and what we know about it. There is a lot of advertising of food benefits but not much evidence about it like pomegranate juice.
