INTRODUCTION

Hello all.

An introduction to this current project I'm working on. Basically, I’m working towards the area of diet in relation to the emotions, mental stability and physical well being in general of human. I feel that food affects each and every part of our lives. For example, living life without certain food component such as sugar or carbohydrates will decrease the work effectiveness of one as sugar and broken down glucose gives an individual some sense of satisfaction and a pump of happiness, which might be short-lived or long, depending on the chemicals present in the body. This will also affect the person’s mood of the day and in turn affect his work progress and production level. Food is also a necessity in life, aside water. However, too much food can cause sicknesses and unnecessary consequences such as landing up in a hospital or even death. Reduced food diet is highly recommended in the current times as more and more people are into the healthy living trend. More green and less fats have been implanted in the diets of many urbanized working adults.

My take on this project is to test out the different diets that are present within the lives of the university students in NTU, be it vegetarian, strict all green and fish/chicken diet, all meat or all fibre diet. This experiment will be carried out through out 3 weeks and each week, I’ll be looking into different diets and trying them out. Documentations will be taken each day to note the mood change and work effectiveness. The final outcome of the project will be determined further down the progress of the project. Meanwhile, research of different diets on people will be done and interviews will be conducted on different ages with different diets.
