Blog #22: Answer 3

EQ: What is the best way to achieve a nutritionally healthy lifestyle?

Answer 3: You have to find out what kind of food you, yourself, should be eating.

Evidence:
  • Everyone's body is different, (there are bodies for athletes, pregnant women, children, people with a sickness, ect.) therefore, people have to find out what is healthy for themselves
  • The best way to do that is to use the a test that includes muscle mass (BMI is useless)
  • People may have an "obese" BMI, but in reality it may just be muscle. This person may think to eat less, but instead they would have to eat more to maintain their health.
