My New Dream

I have recently discovered my love for nutrition.  I am in a nutrition class right now and it is so fascinating! I have learned so many things that have taught me that I need to eat right and make choices now so that my body will continue to function properly the rest of my life.  I have learned that so many of the chronic diseases and illnesses that are so prevalent in our society today stem from lack of proper nutrition.  I believe that this is because people are not being educated in the importance of nutrition.  I want to help.  My dream is to help people change there lives for the better.  I want to help reduce the number of chronic diseases, I want to help people live longer lives.  I want to help my family.   When I graduate I hope to be some type of Nutrition Consultant that designs personal health plans to help individuals know what they need specifically to become healthy.  I want to teach parents to be healthy so that they can teach their kids.  My main goal is to help people to take these health principles and incorporate them into their daily life. I want the principles to be easy enough to follow that they will follow them the rest of their lives.  I strongly believe that I can help people to enjoy life and to be able to get the most out of life by leading a healthy life.  I know beginning to make healthy choices isn't easy but I know that the long term aspects of health are astounding.  I believe all stages of life are in need of nutrition help: the elderly, pregnant women, babies, growing children, teenagers, and adults as well.  Everyone can benefit from the positive effects of health.  I also want to help people increase their self-esteem through changing their out-look on health.  I want the focus to be on becoming healthy, not looking thin.  I want them to feel happy with their bodies, to love them.  Being healthy is about feeding your body proper nutrition and participating in proper exercise.  I want to raise hope in the world that optimum health is achievable.
