Using your nutrients report from Part 2:

Alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3), iron, vitamin A, potassium, vitamin B12, vitamin E, etc )
o List the nutrient name, target amount, average eaten, amount that you are under and 2 foods that can help you increase your intake of that nutrient and how they will be incorporated in your meals.
Example: Calcium, target: 1000mg, met target, 1200mg average eaten, N/A because met target.
Example: alpha-linoneic acid, target: 1.6g, average eaten, .6 g, under 1.0g, add 1T ground flaxseeds to cereal, consume 4 oz salmon at least once a week for dinner, consume cup walnuts as a snack with an apple twice a week.
o How and why would these improvements be challenging to meet?
o In paragraph format, summarize your key findings and the suggested improvements and how this assignment has opened your eyes to making improvements to your nutrition profile. Are there changes you realistically think you will do from this knowledge gained. Why or why not? Please be as honest as you can.
