This document is a computer analysis assignment for NUTR 20N (Nutrition and Life) at Long Beach City College. It requires students to analyze their personal vitamin and mineral intake using Cronometer nutrition software and then interpret the results based on course lectures and textbook readings. This assignment is designed to help students connect theoretical nutritional knowledge with their own dietary habits.
This assignment is intended for students enrolled in NUTR 20N who have completed a Cronometer nutrition analysis. It’s used to assess understanding of micronutrient functions, food sources, and the ability to evaluate personal dietary adequacy. It exists as a practical application of concepts covered in Chapters 9, 10, 11, and 3.
This assignment does *not* provide instruction on how to use Cronometer or detailed explanations of vitamin and mineral functions – that information is expected to be gained from other course materials. It also doesn’t offer dietary recommendations, but rather asks for *reflection* on current intake.
This document provides: a template for recording Cronometer analysis data, color-coding to guide completion, criteria for interpreting vitamin and mineral levels (using upward/downward arrows and “okay”), prompts for identifying “champion foods” and creating a grocery list, and space for reflective writing on dietary habits. It *does not* include the actual Cronometer analysis data itself, nor does it provide answers to the reflection questions.
