Introduction The well known philosopher Hippocrates once stated that, “Let thy food be thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food (McGuire & Beerman 2009, p. 3).” Based on this statement one can observe that food plays a very important role in our lives. It is a fact that life is not possible in the absence of nourishment. This is indicated by the fact that the quality of life we lead is greatly influenced by the food we consume (McGuire & Beerman 2009). In this regard nutrition science plays a major role in our lives as it contributes to good health. Juliet Brown, the subject of this report is a 55-year-old lady who has a job that involves 8 hours of office work on a daily basis. The purpose of this report is to present findings of an individual nutritional assessment with a view to determining the appropriateness of subject’s nutritional intake. For this analysis Juliet made use of the 24-hour recall method to collect data on nutritional intake (Rolfes, Pinna & Whitney 2008). Juliet has been over weight through for the greater part of adult life. However, there has been a significant increase in body weight since menopause which began at the age of 50. In addition to that Juliet’s routine leaves little time for exercise and as a result the only exercise received is walks around shops once a week. Most of her free time is spent watching TV as she feels too tired to engage in any other activity. Juliet is divorced and has no children. To control food intake Juliet uses a food diary and normally has five meals on a daily basis. The meals include breakfast, a mid morning snack, lunch, supper and a snack before bedtime. Her father died aged 65 from a heart attack. Her mother is currently suffering from dementia and is aged 86 years old. Juliet’s brother currently resides in Australia though the two are not very close. She has never been a smoker though she enjoys a glass of wine whenever eating out. She visits the cinema once a week and treats herself thrice a week by eating out. Juliet has had no serious medical issues throughout her life and feels generally healthy. It is reported that she experienced slight issues during menopause at 50 and currently does not experience any known medical problem. Juliet has never had a pregnancy or miscarriage. However, the nature of her work involves long hours seated in front of a computer and as such she experiences occasional neck and back pains. Other than that, Juliet experiences occasional joint pains and normally catches cold once a year during winter. Juliet’s main medical complaint is heartburn which is experienced several times a week. She reports that the heartburn is often worse after a large meal or when experiencing stress. In addition to that she also experiences occasional flatulence and bloating. On occasion she has problems with stool and is affected by an itch around the anus on some nights. Due to being overweight she reports feeling of tired frequently. Juliet does not use any medical supplements except for the occasional Boots Multivitamin. Method of Assessment To complete the task of nutritional assessment this report selected the 24-hour recall method over other methods such as Food Frequency Questionnaire
