Herbs,Vitamins and Nutritional Supplements

As Health and Wellness professionals, the public will be looking to you for information about vitamins, herbs, and nutritional supplements. Not only is this a huge field, but the information is constantly being updated, changed and hotly debated. There are the competing economic interests of multi-million dollar vitamin companies, the lobbying interests of the Complementary and Alternative medicine professions as well as the ecological green interests of sustainability for herbal farming and harvesting worldwide.

For your project, you will create a PowerPoint for a 20 minute talk to a group of lay people at a health center in your community. You will be discussing some issue having to do with vitamins, herbs and/or nutritional supplements. In this Unit, you will review aspects of vitamins, herbs, and nutritional supplements, and explore how what you learned in this program that relates to contemporary and integrative diet and health. Your assignment will be to create and post a power point on your website, related to some aspect of vitamins, herbs and supplements. It can be narrowly focused on one topic, such as one vitamin or one supplement, or broadly focused on guidance for the use of vitamins or supplements. Please keep the power point to 8-10 slides and minimize the explanatory text in your slides. This assignment need not be an exhaustive study of your topic, but more like an introduction to people in the community looking for basic information and resources.
