 She’s too busy to prepare her lunch in exchange for it she could prefer healthy snacks such as fruits instead of junk food.

she must choose low carbs and high-protein foods.

She must avoid deep-fried food which is very bad choice of food.

  1. Based on the information above and the recommendations you have provided, now locate some information from reputable sources that you could provide to Jemima to help her maintain healthy body functioning. The information should address:
  • Information about diabetes
  • Maintaining good blood pressure
  • Exercise (passive and active)
  • Healthy eating

Try to find at least two pieces of good, current information about each topic (preferably different to those you located for Ray in Assessment Task 1).

Attach any hard copy documents to this assessment. If you have used websites, print out the pages or provide the weblinks so your assessor can check them.
