Intervention that could reduce obesity

For this assignment, you are to develop an intervention that could possibly reduce obesity among your priority population chosen in SS 2. Certain population characteristics should be considered when choosing an intervention. Nutrition behaviors are a product of age, culture, education, social and economic position, food access, family structure, and health status. Therefore, population subgroups that differ by age, race, ethnicity, income or geography may respond differently to your intervention. Keep in mind any cultural or societal barriers, design an appropriate intervention for your priority population, incorporate current nutritional and physical fitness recommendations that contribute to health. Include discussion on the components of fitness and the role of energy balance. Two examples of nutritional recommendations are listed below (I encourage you to research additional nutritional guidelines when determining your intervention, but this is a good place to start): My Plate Dietary Guidelines: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/dietary-guidelines.html Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) Diet: http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/dash-diet/art-20048456 See the attached examples. Copying any of the information and trying to pass it as your own will lead to a 0 on the assignment.
