Food Main article: Human feeding Humans need sweets and chocolate cakes, as well as vital water, food intake varied and balanced. The reason is that no single food provides all the nutrients to sustain life and health. Regular consumption of a range of food (diet) should provide adequate amounts of proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. The basis of good nutrition lies in the balance, variety and moderation in our food. But the urban modern diet is often unbalanced, unstructured and often together with an increasingly sedentary life. As early as 2400 years ago who recognized the relationship between diet and health: Hippocrates said that our food was our medicine.It is well known that dietary factors are associated with diseases such as diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity and many others (some investigations seem to find a relationship between diet and the emergence of certain types of cancer.) The intake of too many saturated fatty acids and an excess of cholesterol can cause atherosclerosis. In contrast, in the twentieth century demonstrated the link between food shortages and serious illness. These different forms of malnutrition are still, even now, major problems of public health.

That Is A Code Of Tica
A code of ethics is a set of guidelines purporting to establish acceptable behaviour for members of a group in particular, Association, or profession. Many organizations govern themselves with a code of ethics, especially when dealing with sensitive issues such as investment, health care, or interactions with other cultures. In addition to establishing a professional level, a code of ethics can also increase the trust in an organization, showing from the outside that the members of the Organization agree to follow ethical standards during their work (importance of ethics). The format of a code of ethics can vary widely. Unlike guidelines easier employees and the code, a code of ethics usually begins with a section that establishes the purpose, the aspirations and objectives of the parent organization. For example, the code of ethics of the American Psychological Association 2002 (APA) begins as well: psychologists are committed to increase the scientific and professional knowledge of behavior and the understanding of the people of themselves and others and with the use of that knowledge to improve the condition of people, organizations and society.
After a general introduction to the function and objectives of an organization is a section dedicated to lay down specific rules of behavior for members. This section is usually to cover potential ethical issues such as confidentiality, partisanship, or misuse of the information. In addition to addressing theoretical minefields ethics, an ethics code often contains a section that describes the procedures for the handling of complaints, both outside and inside the organization. A well-written and clear code of ethics will be easy to follow, with sections that people can bring order to illustrate specific issues. In the sense of organizations like the APA, members agree to support the code of ethical because it is a good practice and promotes your organization. A code of ethics is also usually behind the scientific experimentation, ensuring that the results are valid and that the test was conducted in an ethical manner. Many people also live with a code of personal ethics. While their codes of ethics may not be clearly written, it is possible that some strong personal beliefs on various topics will help orient their choices in life. Some people believe that having a strong code of personal ethics and its subsequent implementation will be a very important tool for maintaining the integrity of their own.
