Avoid copying and pasting large chunks of text. Even if you include proper citations, your essay will lack originality. Please review the attached Turnitin report so you can see which sections need attention. I will review your draft and update your score once you've rewritten it in your own words and cited sources properly. Please note the late policy in the syllabus. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks. Annotated Bibliography for Sedentary Lifestyles Jude Kum DeVry University Sedentary lifestyle is predominant in our everyday life be it in workplace, school, social or homes and the fact is we have got accustomed to sitting down and doing many things forgetting the impact this is causing to our health. People fail to realize how valuable exercise is in their life and especially in improving their health and well-being. Sitting down on the computer with all focused attention and forgetting that we need to get up and even eat cause problems to many people. Guedes, N.G., Lopes, M.V., Leite de Araujo, T.

Obesity
Obesity is a chronic medical condition and a significant health concern in the United States that is increasing worldwide. More than one third of the adults in the U.S. are obese. It is a leading cause of preventable illness and death (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2016). This global epidemic is a leading concern for adults and for children who are predisposed to becoming obese as adults. This paper will discuss the significance of obesity in Florida, provide a background of the disease, review current surveillance and reporting methods, conduct a descriptive epidemiological analysis, discuss diagnosis and screening for prevention tools, develop an evidence based plan along with measureable outcomes to address obesity as an advanced practice nurse, and conclude with an overview of the main points presented.
Background and Significance
According to the CDC (2016), obesity is defined as “weight that is higher than what is considered as a healthy weight for a given height.” It involves excessive weight gain and accumulation of fat. In order to determine obesity, Body Mass Index or BMI is used to indirectly calculate a person’s body fat and health risk based on weight in relation to height. A BMI of 25.0 or above is considered overweight and 30.0 or greater is considered obese. Athletes with a greater amount of muscle mass may have a higher BMI even though they do not have excess body fat. Waist circumference is also used as a tool to diagnose obesity.
There are many causes that contribute to obesity, including behavioral, genetic, hormonal, environmental, and social factors. Increase in caloric intake, unhealthy eating habits, decrease in physical activity, certain medications, age, lack of sleep, quitting smoking, pregnancy, and certain medical disorders can contribute to weight gain (Mayo Clinic, 2018). Driving cars has replaced walking and riding bikes, technology has replaced engaging in physical activity, and easy access to cheaper foods has replaced nutritional importance. Most people are aware when weight is gained. Obvious signs and symptoms are tighter clothes, excess fat, and increased weight on a scale. Being overweight or obese increases the risk for many health diseases. Obesity may cause low endurance, breathing issues, excessive sweating, and joint discomfort. It can also lead to diabetes, gastroesophageal reflux disease, coronary heart disease, hypertension, high cholesterol, stroke, depression, and even certain types of cancer such as bowel, breast, and prostate cancer (Mayo Clinic, 2018).
Below is a map that highlights the obesity prevalence across the U.S. in 2016 according to the CDC. There is no significant difference in overall prevalence between men and women. The prevalence of women with a BMI > 35 ...

Role of Daily life style and Medication in Prevention and treatment of obesity
The rising prevalence of overweight and obesity underscores the need for enhanced intervention strategies to tackle this significant public health issue. Increases in energy expenditure through exercise and other physical activity may be a crucial component of effective interventions to enhance initial weight loss and prevent weight regain. achieve these outcomes, it is recommended to engage in appropriate levels of exercise and physical activity, with 60 to 90 minutes per day being the recommended duration. Epidemiological surveys in England reveal that obesity is prevalent, defined as a body mass index (BMI) of greater than 30 kg/m2. This study is the first to report the prevalence of general obesity and abdominal obesity in the adult population of Spain, based on weight, height, and waist circumference measurements. Diet, smoking, and physical activity are significant lifestyle factors that can significantly impact body weight and fat accumulation. The PREDIMED study, a randomized dietary primary prevention trial conducted in Spain, assessed the relationship between lifestyle and obesity risk. A study assessed 7,000 high-cardiovascular risk subjects, determining a healthy lifestyle pattern (HLP) based on Mediterranean diet adherence, moderate alcohol consumption, daily physical activity of 200kcal/day, and non-smoking.

PICOT Statement: Childhood Obesity
Introduction
Childhood obesity poses serious health problems in the US as the number of overweight and obese population increases at a rapid pace every year. The effects of this problem have arrested the attention of policymakers, societal members, and government agencies. This has resulted in ranking childhood obesity as a national health concern. The adverse impacts of this disease go beyond the health realms to include economic burden on both personal and national budgets. While there are numerous risk factors and various evidence-based interventions to address this challenge, no single approach is consistently efficacious in curbing the disease. Consequently, it is imperative that efficacious initiatives and policies be developed to address the never-ending problem of childhood obesity. Multidisciplinary approaches are often broad and cut across all dimensions of personal health problems. Instead of placing emphasis solely on biomedical models, health care professionals should also seek to promote behavior change among obesity patients and their family members. A PICOT statement can be utilized as an effective tool to seek interventions of addressing childhood obesity.
PICOT Statement
Population
In the US, obesity prevalence is highest among children aged from 6 to 11 years (Cheung et al. 2016). The disease has tripled among this age group from 4.2 percent to 15.3 percent from 1963 to 2012. In the last three decades, increased cases of obesity prevalence have been noted among children of all ages, although the differences in obesity prevalence have been recorded in terms of age, race, ethnicity, and gender (Cheung et al. 2016). In this respect, children from socioeconomically disadvantaged families and some racial and ethnic minorities experience the higher median score on obesity than the dominant white population. Higher obesity rates are often recorded among blacks and Hispanics compared to whites. For instance, a survey on girls in the Southwest revealed that the yearly cases of obesity stood at 4.5 percent among Blacks, 2 percent among Hispanics, and 0.7 percent among white girls aged from 13 to 17 years (Cheung et al. 2016). For low-income earners, American Indians rank highest at 6.3 percent, followed closely by Hispanics at 5.5 percent.

The prevalence of childhood obesity has been increasing rapidly and there is general consensus that good nutritional practices and physical activity should be encouraged as early as possible in life. The aim of this study was to describe and to compare the current lifestyle and dietary pattern of normal weight (NW) and overweight + obese (OW+OB) male adolescents who are physically active.
Methods: This observational and retrospective study was based on clinical records analysis of male adolescents aged 11-18 years who had undergone a medical evaluation at a Medical Sport Centre (Pavia, Italy) during 2009, and had filled in a self-administered life style questionnaire.
Results: The results showed that out of 1423 clinical records 23.0% of subjects were OW, 5.4% OB and 71.6% NW. We invited all the overweight and obese subjects to participate in the study, 308 of them (75.8%) agreed. Then we randomly enrolled an equivalent number of NW participants (n=308) in the medical evaluation at the sports center with similar characteristics as for socio-economic status, physical activity and age for a whole sample of 616 subjects. We handled them a validated lifestyle questionnaire. The questionnaire analysis was used to compare OW+OB and NW participants, as far as eating habits, sedentary activities and time spent in sports. All the subjects frequently skipped breakfast, did not consume fruit and vegetables daily and had a high soft drinks intake. Inverse correlations were found between weight and physical activity (p=0.01). Sedentary activities were preferred by about 25% and 66 % of the NW and OW+OB groups respectively. The percentage of smokers was similar within the two groups (14%).
Conclusions: Adolescents eating habits are incorrect, despite BMI and sports practice. Sports practice seems contributing to lower spare time physical inactivity, but does not improve eating habits. Public health interventions should focus on the reinforcement of leisure time physical activity, besides nutrition education and behavioral education programs in order to prevent obesity in the adulthood.

Clinical Problem
A report from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in 2015 revealed that (9.4%) 30.3 million Americans are diabetic and 84.1 million have prediabetes. This is a total population of over 100 million is at risk of developing type 2 diabetes which is a growing health problem being the seventh leading cause of death in the U.S. An estimated 1.5 million new cases were among 18-year old bracket and the rates of diagnosed diabetes increased proportionally to age. Below 44 years accounted for 4%, below 64 years at 17 % and 25% for those above 65 years across both genders. One-third of adults in America has prediabetes but sadly, they are unaware despite reports released by The National Diabetes Statistics Report every year. These reports elaborate on prevalence and incidence, prediabetes, long-term complications, risk factors, mortality, and cost. Diabetes poses the risk of serious complications like death, blindness, stroke, kidney disorders, cardiac diseases and health problems that lead to amputation of legs. However, the risks can be mitigated through physical body activities, proper dieting and prescribed use of insulin and other related measures to control the blood sugar levels. Diabetes Prevention Program was funded by NIH to research a yearly evidence-based program to improve healthy weight loss through diet and physical activities. There also efforts to determine the effectiveness of public service campaigns in improving the real-life experience in the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes.
PICOT Question.
The population affected by diabetes cuts across all ages, gender, race, and ethnicity. The prevalence is significantly high from 18 years and it increases with age to about 25% above 65 years. In terms of gender, men are at higher risk accounting for 37% while women are at 30% across races and educational levels. On races, the rates were higher among Indians/Alaska natives at 15%, non-Hispanic blacks at 12.7% and Hispanics at 12%. Among Asians, the rates were lower at 8% and 7.4% for non-Hispanic whites.
Intervention indicator for diabetes shows that individuals who do not observe a healthy diet are more exposed to the disease. Some risk behaviors include lack of exercise and excessive intake of junk foods that lead to obesity and increased blood sugar levels. Diabetes prevalence varied according to education levels were those with less than high school education at 12.6% and 7.2% for those higher than high school education.
Comparison and use of a control group from the popularity of Complementary and Alternative Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine showed distinct knowledge of diabetes, blood sugar control, and self-care. The experimental group received education through interactive multimedia for three months while the control group received.

2-2 Discussion: Prevention Strategies in Epidemiology
Overweight and obesity continue to be a leading health concern in the United States. It is estimated that up to 400,000 obesity-related deaths occur per year in America. Literature has shown that overweight and obesity are major causes of co-morbidity, including type II diabetes, various cancers, cardiovascular diseases and other heath problems. A person is considered overweight or obese when their weight is greater than what is generally considered healthy for their height. Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measurement that helps to figure out if you’re at a healthy weight for your height. BMI is calculated by dividing weight in pounds by height in inches squared and multiplying by a conversion factor of 703. An adult is considered overweight if their BMI is greater or equal to twenty-five. An adult is considered obese if their BMI is greater than or equal to thirty. The average American man and woman are 190 pounds and 163 pounds respectively according to the National Center for Health Statistics (Montgomery, 2008).
Epidemiological research is key to prevention of disease. Research on disease etiology is helpful in determining where in the disease’s natural history effective intervention might be implemented. Leavell and Clark, in the late 1940’s, were the first to describe the principles of disease prevention using the terms primary, secondary and tertiary prevention (Friis & Sellers, 2014). Primary prevention seeks to prevent a condition or disease at a pre-pathological state. The goal is to stop the condition or disease from ever happening. Primary prevention for overweight and obesity would be working together with policy makers, businesses, schools, childcare and healthcare professionals, state and local organizations to create an environment that supports a healthy lifestyle. Primary prevention differs from secondary and tertiary prevention in that secondary prevention focuses on early disease detection and intervention and tertiary prevention aims to control established disease and limit the amount of disability (Friis & Sellers, 2014). Secondary prevention for overweight and obesity would include defining obesity with BMI, education and explanation of the disease by the primary care physician, necessary changes in nutrition and physical activity. Tertiary prevention for overweight and obesity includes physical activity, weight loss, low carbohydrate diet, behavior therapy and nutritionists.
There are many national and state-level prevention policies and legislation in place to prevent or reduce obesity. For example, the federal government, in 2006-2007, began requiring all school districts with a federally funded school meal program to develop and implement wellness policies that address nutrition and physical activity. Steps to a Healthier US program is program administered by the Centers for Disease Control in 2003 that enables communities to develop action plans to prev.

2-2 Discussion: Prevention Strategies in Epidemiology
Overweight and obesity continue to be a leading health concern in the United States. It is estimated that up to 400,000 obesity-related deaths occur per year in America. Literature has shown that overweight and obesity are major causes of co-morbidity, including type II diabetes, various cancers, cardiovascular diseases and other heath problems. A person is considered overweight or obese when their weight is greater than what is generally considered healthy for their height. Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measurement that helps to figure out if you’re at a healthy weight for your height. BMI is calculated by dividing weight in pounds by height in inches squared and multiplying by a conversion factor of 703. An adult is considered overweight if their BMI is greater or equal to twenty-five. An adult is considered obese if their BMI is greater than or equal to thirty. The average American man and woman are 190 pounds and 163 pounds respectively according to the National Center for Health Statistics (Montgomery, 2008).
Epidemiological research is key to prevention of disease. Research on disease etiology is helpful in determining where in the disease’s natural history effective intervention might be implemented. Leavell and Clark, in the late 1940’s, were the first to describe the principles of disease prevention using the terms primary, secondary and tertiary prevention (Friis & Sellers, 2014). Primary prevention seeks to prevent a condition or disease at a pre-pathological state. The goal is to stop the condition or disease from ever happening. Primary prevention for overweight and obesity would be working together with policy makers, businesses, schools, childcare and healthcare professionals, state and local organizations to create an environment that supports a healthy lifestyle. Primary prevention differs from secondary and tertiary prevention in that secondary prevention focuses on early disease detection and intervention and tertiary prevention aims to control established disease and limit the amount of disability (Friis & Sellers, 2014). Secondary prevention for overweight and obesity would include defining obesity with BMI, education and explanation of the disease by the primary care physician, necessary changes in nutrition and physical activity. Tertiary prevention for overweight and obesity includes physical activity, weight loss, low carbohydrate diet, behavior therapy and nutritionists.
There are many national and state-level prevention policies and legislation in place to prevent or reduce obesity. For example, the federal government, in 2006-2007, began requiring all school districts with a federally funded school meal program to develop and implement wellness policies that address nutrition and physical activity. Steps to a Healthier US program is program administered by the Centers for Disease Control in 2003 that enables communities to develop action plans to prev.

Introduction
Obesity is a health situation whereby the affected person(s) has fats in excessive level in the body. Some individuals are unaware of the growing incidences or number of cases related to the obesity. In the United States, there are more than 70 percent of men and 60 percent women in adult population that are overweight. The risks that are associated with obesity include the development of life-threatening diseases like heart failure, cancer, hypertension gall bladder, osteoarthritis, and the category II of diabetes (Zhao, 2013).
This paper, therefore, aims at looking at the literature review of the past studies on adult obesity. In this study, data is collected from different previous studies that have discussed adult obesity. Areas of the present research and coming research on adult obesity and its complications are also addressed in this paper.
Literature Reviews
According to the study by Goededcke and his colleague, in 7786 sampled women of ages between nineteen to ninety-five years in South Africa, the black females recorded a higher prevalent of obesity and overweight.Females of different ancestry were at 52 percent, females with the white complex at 49.2 percent while the women of Indian origin were at 42.8 percent. There was higher Body Mass Index among the women residing in the towns as compared to the women living in rural places. It was noted that the Body Mass Index increased as one age. The overall rate of obesity was higher in men (29 percent) and women (56 percent) (Goededcke, 2010).
This prevalence is higher as compared to other nations in Africa especially females because 30 percent of women in South Africa of age 30 to 59 have cases of obesity. North Africa also has a higher prevalence of obesity as South Africa
.
In his cross sectional study using 1430 rural and urban individuals from Luo, Maasai, and Kamba females of ages 17 to 68 years, Christensen and his colleagues found out that there was an increase in the inside and under skin fats, fat in the area of the arms and the waist circumference as one gets older. This was common among the Maasai females as well as in individuals in the urban areas. The incidence of the overweight BMI (≥ 25) and obesity BMI (≥ 30) was greater among people dwelling in town as compared to those in villages. The rate of the overweight was at 39.8 and 15.8 percent of the city and community areas respectively. Residents from cities recorded a higher rate of abdominal viscera and under skin fat thickness. High prevalence of overweight was due to the accumulation of fats among the Maasai (Christensen, 2011).
Report from the World Health Organization indicates that China, Asia, Indonesia, Japan, as well as Bangladesh have higher obesity prevalence. The pathological obesity in India is at five

ABSTRACT
Nutritional epidemiology has recently been criticized on several fronts, including the inability to measure diet accurately, and for its reliance
on observational studies to address etiologic questions. In addition, several recent meta-analyses with serious methodologic flaws have arrived
at erroneous or misleading conclusions, reigniting controversy over formerly settled debates. All of this has raised questions regarding the
ability of nutritional epidemiologic studies to inform policy. These criticisms, to a large degree, stem from a misunderstanding of the
methodologic issues of the field and the inappropriate use of the drug trial paradigm in nutrition research. The exposure of interest in
nutritional epidemiology is human diet, which is a complex system of interacting components that cumulatively affect health. Consequently,
nutritional epidemiology constantly faces a unique set of challenges and continually develops specific methodologies to address these.
Misunderstanding these issues can lead to the nonconstructive and sometimes naive criticisms we see today. This article aims to clarify common
misunderstandings of nutritional epidemiology, address challenges to the field, and discuss the utility of nutritional science in guiding policy
by focusing on 5 broad questions commonly asked of the field. Adv Nutr 2015;6:5–18.

Introduction
Epidemiology has long had its share of skeptics, with Taubes’
1995 article being the most well-known (1). However, more
recent commentaries have attacked nutritional epidemiol-
ogy on several fronts. Ioannidis (2) criticizes the observa-
tional nature of epidemiologic studies and small trials,
stating that “definitive solutions won’t come from another
million observational papers or small randomized trials.”
He refers to an article by Archer et al. (3), which calls into
question the validity of data from the NHANES and suggests
that “the ability to estimate population trends in caloric
intake and generate empirically supported public policy rel-
evant to diet-health relations from US nutritional sur-
veillance is extremely limited.” Furthermore, questionably
designed and executed meta-analyses have disseminated
conflicting messages about nutrition and health, such as
the conclusion that being overweight lowers the risk of all-
cause mortality (4) and that replacing saturated fat with
polyunsaturated fats has no substantial impact on cardiovas-
cular risk (5). Such conclusions are not only confusing but
also dangero.

Introduction: The associations of modifiable lifestyle risk factors with incident diabetes are not well
investigated in African Americans (AAs). This study investigated the association of modifiable
lifestyle risk factors (exercise, diet, smoking, TV watching, and sleep-disordered breathing burden)
with incident diabetes among AAs.
Methods: Modifiable lifestyle risk factors were characterized among 3,252 AAs in the Jackson
Heart Study who were free of diabetes at baseline (2000–2004) using baseline questionnaires and
combined into risk factor categories: poor (0–3 points), average (4–7 points), and optimal (8–11
points). Incidence rate ratios (IRR) for diabetes (fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL, physician diagnosis,
use of diabetes drugs, or glycosylated hemoglobin A1c ≥6.5%) were estimated using Poisson
regression modeling adjusting for age, sex, education, occupation, systolic blood pressure, and BMI.
Outcomes were collected 2005–2012 and data analyzed in 2016.
Results: Over 7.6 years, there were 560 incident diabetes cases (mean age¼53.3 years, 64% female).
An average or optimal compared to poor risk factor categorization was associated with a 21%
(IRR¼0.79, 95% CI¼0.62, 0.99) and 31% (IRR¼0.69, 95% CI¼0.48, 1.01) lower risk of diabetes.
Among participants with BMI o30, IRRs for average or optimal compared to poor categorization
were 0.60 (95% CI¼0.40, 0.91) and 0.53 (95% CI¼0.29, 0.97) versus 0.90 (95% CI¼0.67, 1.21) and
0.83 (95% CI¼0.51, 1.34) among participants with BMI ≥30.
Conclusions: A combination of modifiable lifestyle factors are associated with a lower risk of
diabetes among AAs, particularly among those without obesity.

Abstract
Having a good nutrition habit, healthy body weight, and physical activities are essential aspects of good health and wellness. The combination of all three factors is critical in reducing the chances of getting severe health complications such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, cancer, stroke, and heart complications. Managing a good health condition also relies on how one adhere to regular physical exercises, a well-maintained body weight, and a healthy diet. However, according to (Healthy People 2020), most Americans don't check their menu and are lazy in taking apart in physical activities to the required levels as a way of maintaining proper health.
According to CDCP (2013), fruit consumption among adults is 1.1 times in a day, and the use of vegetables on a daily scale is 1.6, with adolescents recording the lowest use of both fruits and vegetables. The statistic shows that the average daily consumption of both fruits and vegetables among Americans doesn't meet the recommended intake of fruits and vegetables. About 81.6% and 81.8% of American adults and adolescents respectively don't take part in physical activities on a recommended daily scale. These behaviors are among the leading factors that contribute to the rising cases of Obesity. Approximately 1 out of 3 US adults, which represents 34 % and 1 out of 6 adolescents and children, which is 16.2 %, are obese.
Obesity-related complications include stroke, heart disease, and type two diabetes. The current in death cases is as a result of the obesity-related complications. Besides the death cases, obesity-related diseases cots this country millions of money annually, making it one of the most significant burdens that this country is struggling with regards to the health care system.

Maintaining a healthy diet is an essential factor that determines how healthy our bodies become. We must retain less sugar, salt, and fats diet daily. Cases associated with obesity are not causing deaths but also taking so much of this country's financial resources. Every year both the federal, state, and county governments invest million into the health sector as a way of improving the infrastructures required to deal with obesity-related complications. Any healthy combines a variety of foods such as cereals, legumes, proteins, fruits, and vegetables. Research shows that obesity is gradually grown into a global crisis with WHO initiating campaigns aimed at establishing the importance of maintaining a healthy diet (Abidin, 2014).

Introduction: The associations of modifiable lifestyle risk factors with incident diabetes are not well
investigated in African Americans (AAs). This study investigated the association of modifiable
lifestyle risk factors (exercise, diet, smoking, TV watching, and sleep-disordered breathing burden)
with incident diabetes among AAs.
Methods: Modifiable lifestyle risk factors were characterized among 3,252 AAs in the Jackson
Heart Study who were free of diabetes at baseline (2000–2004) using baseline questionnaires and
combined into risk factor categories: poor (0–3 points), average (4–7 points), and optimal (8–11
points). Incidence rate ratios (IRR) for diabetes (fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL, physician diagnosis,
use of diabetes drugs, or glycosylated hemoglobin A1c ≥6.5%) were estimated using Poisson
regression modeling adjusting for age, sex, education, occupation, systolic blood pressure, and BMI.
Outcomes were collected 2005–2012 and data analyzed in 2016.
Results: Over 7.6 years, there were 560 incident diabetes cases (mean age¼53.3 years, 64% female).
An average or optimal compared to poor risk factor categorization was associated with a 21%
(IRR¼0.79, 95% CI¼0.62, 0.99) and 31% (IRR¼0.69, 95% CI¼0.48, 1.01) lower risk of diabetes.
Among participants with BMI o30, IRRs for average or optimal compared to poor categorization
were 0.60 (95% CI¼0.40, 0.91) and 0.53 (95% CI¼0.29, 0.97) versus 0.90 (95% CI¼0.67, 1.21) and
0.83 (95% CI¼0.51, 1.34) among participants with BMI ≥30.
Conclusions: A combination of modifiable lifestyle factors are associated with a lower risk of
diabetes among AAs, particularly among those without obesity.

Abstract
Having a good nutrition habit, healthy body weight, and physical activities are essential aspects of good health and wellness. The combination of all three factors is critical in reducing the chances of getting severe health complications such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, cancer, stroke, and heart complications. Managing a good health condition also relies on how one adhere to regular physical exercises, a well-maintained body weight, and a healthy diet. However, according to (Healthy People 2020), most Americans don't check their menu and are lazy in taking apart in physical activities to the required levels as a way of maintaining proper health.
According to CDCP (2013), fruit consumption among adults is 1.1 times in a day, and the use of vegetables on a daily scale is 1.6, with adolescents recording the lowest use of both fruits and vegetables. The statistic shows that the average daily consumption of both fruits and vegetables among Americans doesn't meet the recommended intake of fruits and vegetables. About 81.6% and 81.8% of American adults and adolescents respectively don't take part in physical activities on a recommended daily scale. These behaviors are among the leading factors that contribute to the rising cases of Obesity. Approximately 1 out of 3 US adults, which represents 34 % and 1 out of 6 adolescents and children, which is 16.2 %, are obese.
Obesity-related complications include stroke, heart disease, and type two diabetes. The current in death cases is as a result of the obesity-related complications. Besides the death cases, obesity-related diseases cots this country millions of money annually, making it one of the most significant burdens that this country is struggling with regards to the health care system.
Introduction
Maintaining a healthy diet is an essential factor that determines how healthy our bodies become. We must retain less sugar, salt, and fats diet daily. Cases associated with obesity are not causing deaths but also taking so much of this country's financial resources. Every year both the federal, state, and county governments invest million into the health sector as a way of improving the infrastructures required to deal with obesity-related complications. Any healthy combines a variety of foods such as cereals, legumes, proteins, fruits, and vegetables. Research shows that obesity is gradually grown into a global crisis with WHO initiating campaigns aimed at establishing the importance of maintaining a healthy diet (Abidin, 2014).

Your company recently reviewed the results of a penetration test.docx
Your company recently reviewed the results of a penetration test on your network. Several vulnerabilities were identified, and the IT security management team has recommended mitigation. The manager has asked you to construct a plan of action and milestones (POA&M) given that the following vulnerabilities and mitigations were identified:
The penetration test showed that not all systems had malware protection software in place. The mitigation was to write a malware defense process to include all employees and retest the system after the process was implemented.
The penetration test indicated that the data server that houses employee payroll records had an admin password of “admin.” The mitigation was to perform extensive hardening of the data server.
The penetration test also identified many laptop computers that employees brought to work and connected to the internal network,some of which were easily compromised. The mitigation was to write a bring your own device (BYOD) policy for all employees and train the employees how to use their devices at work.

Your company You are a new Supply Chain Analyst with the ACME.docx
Your company: You are a new Supply Chain Analyst with the ACME Corporation. We design specialty electronics that are components in larger finished goods such as major appliances, automobiles and industrial equipment. Manufacturing is outsourced to low-cost suppliers due to the significant labor contribution and closeness to electronic component suppliers.
Your product: ACME Corp. designs a leading-edge family of devices branded as “Voice Assistants.” These are add-on boxes that many OEMs are using as plug-and-play devices in a wide variety of Internet-of-Things products. They are also sold directly to consumers as after-market items, but only for IoT devices that were built with our proprietary data-port.
Figure 1: Product line of ACME Corp Voice Assistant IoT Add-on Boxes
Your task: Your Chief Supply Chain Officer (CSCO) is requesting a review of supplier-to-customer processes as related to recent growth in our company and increasing demand for faster responsiveness to customers. One alternative is to decentralize our inventory into regional Distribution Centers; however, our ERP system is currently limited in the data available to make some of these decisions – and the output reports are very antiquated. Starting off the process, the CSCO directed that your Analysis Team use population data to pro-rate our national sales data as a starting point. For this analysis, you are asked to focus only on the flagship product, Voice Assistant IoT Add-on Box, 4GB, SKU #123-456789. The challenge is now yours to complete some computations and interpret the results!
Your data: A detailed report from your ERP system along with secondary data from the U.S. Census Bureau (reference: https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/popest/data/data-sets.html) is provided. (Note: Sales to Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico are handled by a 3PL provider and therefore are NOT part of this analysis.) The consolidated EXCEL® file has incorporated several tasks already performed by the Analysis Team --- sort, cleanse, inventory optimization, etc. Other tasks remain for your team.
Detailed Requirements: Prepare a formal report summarizing your results and providing recommendations that are supported by facts. The required layout follows:
A. Supply Chain Management:
a. Identify a single key supplier and a single key customer for your product, including a brief description of their product.
b. Identify the proper type of business relationship that your company should have with the supplier and customer from Part A, above, then briefly describe the data that you would share with them.
c. When implementing Supply Chain Management with your #1 key supplier for the first time, create a timeline that lists each of the six SCOR processes in the order that you recommend implementation; include process leader (by job title), primary contact at supplier/customer (by job title), and duration to implement.
d. Briefly describe each of the four enablers of supply chain .

How to Break the cycle of negative Thoughts
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

- 1. 1 ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY FOR SEDENTARY LIFESTYLES THESE ARE THE INSTRUCTORS REMARKS AFTER GRADING AND GIVING ME A ZERO/100. PLEASE CORRECT THIS DOCUMENT FOR ME. THANKS. I HAVE ALSO ATTACHED A Turnitin Report in pdf format. Hi, Jude. Your Turnitin report showed that 74% of your draft matches sources that were not cited properly. Please review the plagiarism tutorial in the syllabus, and review the APA materials on how to cite sources. Paraphrase your sources whenever possible; this shows you understand the material and can restate it in your own words. This also enables you to claim ownership of the language while still giving credit for the ideas. When you use source material verbatim, make sure to place it in quotation marks. Avoid copying and pasting large chunks of text. Even if you include proper citations, your essay will lack originality. Please review the attached Turnitin report so you can see which sections need attention. I will review your draft and update your score once you've rewritten it in your own words and cited sources properly. Please note the late policy in the syllabus. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.
- 2. Annotated Bibliography for Sedentary Lifestyles Jude Kum DeVry University Sedentary lifestyle is predominant in our everyday life be it in workplace, school, social or homes and the fact is we have got accustomed to sitting down and doing many things forgetting the impact this is causing to our health. People fail to realize how valuable exercise is in their life and especially in improving their health and well-being. Sitting down on the computer with all focused attention and forgetting that we need to get up and even eat cause problems to many people. Guedes, N.G., Lopes, M.V., Leite de Araujo, T. Moreira, R.P. and Martins, L.C. G. (2010). Predictive Factors of the Nursing Diagnosis Sedentary Lifestyle in People with High Blood Pressure. Public Health Nursing. Vol. 28 No. 2, p. 193-200.
- 3. Wiley Periodicals, Inc. The research question for the study conducted by Guesdes, et al (2010) is based on the following: 1.what is the result of the defining characteristics and related factors of sedentary lifestyle diagnosis in patients with high blood pressure? 2. What are the predictive value and possible predictors of the nursing diagnosis sedentary lifestyle in patients with high blood pressure? The study looked at the validation of diagnostic groupings of the population being studied including aspects of their clinical situations. The study looked at diagnosis resulting from insufficient physical activity, intolerance of activity, fatigue, impaired physical mobility, self-care deficit. My assessment: Using this article, I will bring out the important indicators and useful predictors for identification of sedentary lifestyle; demonstrated the benefits of physical fitness, verbalized preferences for activities that are to accomplish real training or exercises. I will point out appropriate measures needed to be undertaken by individuals to reverse situations caused by sedentary lifestyle ultimately leading to causes of health problems. Villagran Pérez, S., Novalbos-Ruiz, J., Rodríguez-Martín, A., Martínez-Nieto, J., & Lechuga-Sancho, A. (2013). Implications of family socioeconomic level on risk behaviors in child-youth obesity. Nutricion Hospitalaria, 28(6), 1951-1960. doi:10.3305/nutr hosp.v28in06.6848 This study gathers together dietary behavior, physical activity and sedentary lifestyle in relation to the family socioeconomic status in a sample of Spanish children. It also uses a population- based cross-sectional study of 3-16 years children, derived using a single "family socioeconomic level" indicator (FSEL) from the level of studies, professional category and work situation of both parents. It discusses how families with higher
- 4. FSEL quartile were related to healthy dietary habits such as having breakfast, 5 meals per day and less snacking. The FSEL was related also to the consumption of whole grains, dairy products and fruits, but not to vegetables, meat or fish. According to this article, the greatest risk of excess weight was found in girls >6 years old, with a low FSEL, sedentary habits, that snack frequently and eat few proteins. My assessment: I will use this in the body of my essay because family socioeconomic status seems to determine the level of physical activity, sedentary lifestyle and dietary behavior. The elaboration of a simple socioeconomic indicator may be useful to study factors involved in child obesity. Bunker, J. (2014). Hypertension: diagnosis, assessment and management. Nursing Standard, 28(42), 50-59. This article reviews the management of primary hypertension in adults, with reference to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines. Hypertension is a serious and common condition, the prevalence of which is set to rise given the increase in the ageing population, sedentarylifestyles and obesity. Diagnosis using clinic, ambulatory and home blood pressure (BP) monitoring, risk factors, BP targets, lifestyle advice, drug treatment and patient education are also discussed. My assessment: I will use this information because it ties up with my first article with discusses the effect of sedentary lifestyles on hypertension. Almeida, A., Joao, D., Rolao, A., Monteiro-Grillo, I., Camilo, M., & Ravasco, P. (2013). Excessive adiposity and sedentary lifestyles are prevalent in cancer patients; a pilot study. Nutricion Hospitalaria, 28(5), 1468-1474. doi:10.3305/nh.2013.28.5.6690 This article discusses how cancer etiology is multifactorial and goes on to further show how risk factors comprise obesity, central adiposity, physical inactivity and excessive/ deficient
- 5. intake of foods and/or nutrients with procarcinogenic/ protective effects. The authors aim to analyze the pattern of nutritional status, food intake and physical activity in a cohort of cancer patients. This study was conducted in 64 outpatients referred for Radiotherapy. Central obesity, which indicates moderate/high cardio-metabolic risk, was found in 78% of patients. Food frequency analysis showed a poor intake in vegetables and a high intake in meat and carbohydrates. Physical inactivity was prevalent. My assessment: Since this article is tied with sedentary lifestyles, and shows a high prevalence of overweight/obesity, excessive fat mass and central obesity, and an inadequate diet, poor in protective foods and excessive in deleterious ones. Thus, these patients exhibit a high risk pattern for cancer development and for a poorer prognosis. The implementation of measures to promote balanced and protective diets and to encourage physical activity practice is urgently needed. Kyröläinen, H., Santtila, M., Nindl, B., & Vasankari, T. (2010). Physical fitness profiles of young men associations between physical fitness, obesity and health. Sports Medicine, 40(11), 907-920. doi:10.2165/11536570-000000000-00000 These authors discusses physical activity and its effects on obesity and health, showing that regular physical activity combined with improved physical fitness reduces the risk of obesity and several metabolic problems (e.g. diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, heart disease) and also improves overall health. It also goes on to reveal how there is only limited scientific information available concerning the changes in the physical fitness profiles of youth. It is obvious that only slight changes observed in endurance-type physical activity can also be observed in aerobic capacity. Today and in the future, a major public health concern for teenage and young adults is the combination of increasing body fatness together with decreasing physical fitness. In order to evaluate overall fitness level, it is
- 6. particularly essential to examine both aerobic and neuromuscular fitness. Therefore, in clinical practice work and health behavior education, a person's physical fitness should be measured more frequently with various measures. Furthermore, population-based surveys should be combined with regular measurement of physical fitness to study sedentarylifestyles, particularly in young people. My assessment: This article presents a review of current physical fitness profiles of male children, adolescents and young adults, which hopefully initiates further studies in this relevant scientific field. In addition, the importance of physical fitness level is evaluated in relation to obesity and health. Continued efforts to foster improved physical fitness and healthy lifestylesshould be encouraged to combat these trends. Such efforts should include frequent and objective assessment of physical fitness rather than solely relying on subjective assessment of physical activity. Reiser, L., & Schlenk, E. (2009). Clinical use of physical activity measures. Journal Of The American Academy Of Nurse Practitioners, 21(2), 87-94. doi:10.1111/j.1745- 7599.2008.00389.x According to this article, physical activity is a lifestyle factor that is a key focus in chronic disease-related research, prevention, and interventions. Healthy People 2010 set goals of decreasing the prevalence of preventable diseases by encouraging healthier lifestyle patterns. Shifts toward more sedentary lifestyles have resulted in increases in life- limiting disease states, including obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and osteoporosis. Physical activity measurements have been used widely in research studies but are less commonly used in primary care. Measuring individuals'
- 7. physical activity levels as part of the health assessment will enhance the provider's ability to engage in health promotion and suggest health protection interventions. My assessment: The strengths, weaknesses, and potential applications to practice of physical activity measures are summarized in an effort to familiarize nurse practitioners (NPs) with commonly used tools and encourage integration of physical activity assessment into their current practice. I will use this article in the body of my paper to explain how NPs are in an ideal position to promote health by encouraging appropriate amounts of physical activity. Screening, health promotion, and disease prevention are part of the core competencies of NP practice established by the National Organization of Nurse Practitioner Faculties. Increased knowledge of physical activity measures will enhance the NP's ability to evaluate relevant physical activity research for use in evidence-based practice. Kum.
