Answer to Question 1

The 4 Cs of nutrition education include: 1) Commitment 2) Cognitive processing 3) Capability and 4) Confidence.
Nutrition education is different from education in general because its goal is changed dietary behaviors. Changing behavior is more difficult than just memorizing or learning information.
Education for older learners is best designed around their personal limitations, such as declines in visual acuity and hearing loss. These may include such things as using larger type sizes, using fonts that are more easily readable, using bold type and high contrast, avoidance of colored paper and print, and a reading level of fifth to eighth grade for general audiences.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
