Tiny Steps to healthier eating for more energy, creativity, and productivityNadaa Taiyab
Learn the three keys to eating healthier for more energy, creativity, and productivity at work. Analyze your current habits and figure out the first Tiny Step you can take towards improving your eating habits. This workshop was delivered at Cohoots (cohoots.com) in Phoenix, AZ on 11/5/2014.
For more info or to schedule a workshop in your workplace or community, please contact us: www.tinysteps.co/contact-us
This is Catalyst's overview of how you can start making positive changes in your school to support healthy eating.
Here's what the presentation covers:
First we’ll talk a little bit about why we need healthy food in schools, and what the food is like at our schools.
Then we’re are going to break for two rounds of Catalyst’s “Family Food.” It’s like the game show Family Feud, but all about food, healthy eating, and what food is like at school. We’ve been talking with students at our schools to get their thoughts about food in general and about the food that’s offered at school, and in this game, you’ll have a chance to guess what they’re thinking.
We also want to talk about what we can do to get things moving in our schools and make sure we have healthy options that taste good. So first we’ll talk a little about questions you might get from your principal and food service staff if you talk to them about starting to make changes.
Then we’ll work in small groups and plan out some first steps you can take, like setting up a meeting to talk to your principal and food service staff.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

1. What influences you? A Veggie Challenge Design and Observation by Shubha Bhat June 3, 2010 habits.stanford.edu
2. Imagine yourself in Veggie Challenge Scenario 1.... ~12pm: You notice your friends eating veggies ~9am: You receive an email in the morning reminding you to keep an eye out for your friends eating veggies. ~6pm: Your friends receive thank you notes for being good role models ~3pm: You report who you saw eating veggies, and how many veggies you ate that day Do your friends' actions influence you to eat more veggies?
3. Imagine yourself in Veggie Challenge Scenario 2.... ~12pm: You are conscious of people watching what you eat ~9am: You receive an email from a friend thanking you OR criticizing you for eating/not eating veggies the day before ~3pm: You report how many veggies you ate that day Do your friends' opinions influence you to eat more veggies?
4. Find out if you are like the 6 Stanford undergrads who participated in this Veggie Challenge .... = ???
5.
6. When participants were faced with scenario 1, they reported eating 2 servings of veggies on avg per day, neither more or less than usual . Participants were NOT influenced by their friends' ACTIONS !
7. When participants were faced with scenario 2... Participants WERE influenced by their friends' OPINIONS !
8.
9. Thanks to all my Stanford undergrad volunteers, BJ Fogg, Akshay Kothari and the Health Habits class!
