1. What have you learnt about your eating habits?
I have been eating very unhealthy food): I always felt as if I was eating too little, however I realised through this PT that I have been eating too little dietary fibre, carbohydrates and calcium. As such, I have a low energy level. Perhaps this is why at times I find it hard to keep awake. In addition, too much cholestrol fat and sodium): not good for health! I think that I should snack less and eat more proper food. Also, I should have a more well-balanced diet by incorporating more fruits and vegetables and everything!

2. Do you consider your diet a healthy one? Why?
No, not really. I never really found myself eating healthy due to laziness however after this project, I realised the extent of the unhealthiness. While some aspects of my diet may be healthy, there is a large room for improvement if I really wanted to have more balanced eating habits. Hmm yeah I really should change my eating habits I don't wanna die young!

3. Are the suggested nutritional tools useful? How?
Yes, they gave me a general idea of the nutritional composition of the food I was eating and it was pretty convienient to use- I did not face any difficulties that other people claimed to have faced so I guess I was very lucky in that sense! The automatic calculation based on usual portions of whatever food I ate is much easier than if I manually calculated it out. However the health tools did not give us a clearer picture of other components of our diet, eg vitamins, iron, sugar. Also, the food database might not be wide enough, as such not all the dishes we eat (eg in my case i substitued "parfait" with "frozen desserts") and this might not be an accurate representation of my diet's composition.

4. Why is your suggested one-dish meal healthy?
This one dish meal is very healthy because:
1. WHOLE WHEAT = more vitamins, fibre and minerals!
2. loads of vegetables (eggplant, onion, garlic, tomato, broccoli) = more dietary fibre (I need more dietary fibre according to the analysis of my diet)
3. Olive oil is healthier than normal cooking oil because it is less processed, of HIGH QUALITY, and it has an anti-oxidant effect on the human body cells - 80% of extra virgin olive oil works as a protection against cholesterol, while it stimulating bone growth, and calcium absorption.

It is also very filling, tasty, easy to make, healthier and cheaper to make than restaurant pasta, hence it is a much better alternative.
