He’s a movie buff and watches lots of movies on Netflix. His other hobby is barbecuing, and he prefers fat, juicy cuts. Although his life has been very sedentary for the past several years, he is starting to think about becoming more fit and muscular. As a first step, he has started drinking fruit-sherbet smoothies with supplemental protein. Mom: Age 30, height 62 inches, weight 120 pounds, blood pressure 110/78Mom works part-time from home as a computer programmer. On most days she runs 5–6 miles, as she is training for a marathon. She is mindful of the need for adequate hydration, so she weighs herself before and after running. She is proud of her accomplishments as a runner because exercise is so good for strong bones. Grandma: Age 68, height 63 inches, weight 165 pounds, blood pressure 158/98Grandma lives and eats with the family. She worries about the contamination of fresh produce, so she takes vegetable extract capsules to get important phytochemicals. She knows women have a high need for iron to replace iron lost in menstruation, so she takes an iron supplement. Her schedule as a hospital volunteer is unpredictable, as she often covers for other volunteers. The whole family: Daughter Gracie (age 4 months) is exclusively breastfed. Her parents give her an infant iron supplement each day. Mom and Dad are both super busy, so the family eats out a lot—mostly fast food unless Dad is grilling some meat. When Mom cooks, she relies on helper mixes, canned soups, and microwave meals. Their staples are meats, pasta, and grains, so they don’t eat many fruits and vegetables. Mom is concerned that milk is high in fat, so no one drinks much milk. With their hectic schedule and varied interests, they often leave leftovers on the counter after meals. The family uses tap water for drinking and cooking. If their hands look dirty, they wash them before preparing food or eating—otherwise, they don’t bother. Because of frequent upset stomachs, they wonder if they should start using bottled water instead of the city's tap water.
