D2: Evaluate how the nutritional plan might improve the health of the chosen individual.
This assignment requires me to evaluate how my nutritional plan for Maria might improve her health, I will be doing so by explaining how the methods to prepare the food will better her diet and health, also I will be explaining how these methods will be used to help her dietary intake and health.

This will mean that Maris has more energy throughout the day and not feel sleepy in college.
This plan would also include fruits on nuts which she can use as healthy snacks in between meals, this will mean that Maria doesn’t snack on junk and it doesn’t over fill her, so she doesn’t skip the...
