Skill Area: General Nutrition
Assignment Title: Critique of a supplement -- Soy and Cancer
What I learned: I learned to
do research on a widely used food product/supplement in which its beneficial
qualities have been beneficial. I found information by searching for studies
that have been conducted which have conclusive evidence.
Reflection to assignment: This
assignment was very eye opening in the actual opposite effect than the public
believes that soy has on cancer. Also, it is difficult to find studies that
have conclusive evidence.
Relevance to the profession: When someone hears that you are a nutrition major, the first question they usually ask you is about a well known food supplement and what you think of its benefits. Being able to critique a supplement and do research on studies that have been conducted on the topic enables me to have knowledge about what information I can give the public.
