February 2005
Guest Speaker
Suha Mansour
Dietitian
Topic - Calories, Diet Myths and the Arabic food
Suha touched on a number of areas, starting with a definition
of the food pyramid, and then discussing many topics of interest including overweight
and obesity, the energy intake and calorie calculation, fat free and light products,
Butter Versus Margarine, required water intake and lastly reviewed some common
misunderstanding and related myths.
The lecture was very informative, as evident from the audience interest.. particularly the ladies!
and the usual news update section... on PCA activities and events.
