Adequate Nutrients

by | May 2, 2021 | nutrition

It is possible that although your Part 2: Diet Analysis Cronometer Nutrition report showed your diet was
adequate in nutrients, met calorie goals, and balanced in terms of nutrients, your diet is lacking variety and not
showing moderation in terms of the food groups (one is too high or too low, resulting in too much or too little of
another food group). This portion of the diet analysis project will focus on your critical analysis of your intake for
one day as compared to recommendations from MyPlate for variety and moderation from the food groups.
Your critical analysis will be presented as a written paper. The paper should include an introduction paragraph,
one paragraph for each of the 5 food groups, one paragraph on the “limits” (sodium and saturated fat), and a
conclusion.
Introduction: This should tell the reader what they will expect to read about in your paper. The main focus here
is that you are introducing a review of your diet in terms of how well it matches up to recommendations about
food groups.
Body of the paper: Aim for 1 complete paragraph (3-5 sentences is a good goal to aim for) addressing each
food group and the limits. This means you will have 6 paragraphs in total for the body of the paper.
For each food group support the determination you made (Y or N) in column 3 of your worksheet- Did you
reach your target? Clearly state if you believe you did/did NOT meet the recommendation and how you came
to this conclusion. Which foods did you classify in this food group and how did you come up with the total
number of servings? Do this for each of the 5 food groups.
Once you have this for all food groups, do the same for the limits. If you exceeded sodium and/or saturated fat,
identify which foods in your diet for the day resulted in being over the limit(s). If you were under for one or both,
comment on how you made choices to keep those to a minimum. In the event no decisions were made
specifically with awareness of sodium and saturated fat content, that is fine, however you will want to comment
on this still and not skip over a critical analysis of your intake impacting those values.

Dante Alighieri played a critical role in the literature world through his poem Divine Comedy that was written in the 14th century. The poem contains Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. The Inferno is a description of the nine circles of torment that are found on the earth. It depicts the realms of the people that have gone against the spiritual values and who, instead, have chosen bestial appetite, violence, or fraud and malice. The nine circles of hell are limbo, lust, gluttony, greed and wrath. Others are heresy, violence, fraud, and treachery. The purpose of this paper is to examine the Dante’s Inferno in the perspective of its portrayal of God’s image and the justification of hell. 

In this epic poem, God is portrayed as a super being guilty of multiple weaknesses including being egotistic, unjust, and hypocritical. Dante, in this poem, depicts God as being more human than divine by challenging God’s omnipotence. Additionally, the manner in which Dante describes Hell is in full contradiction to the morals of God as written in the Bible. When god arranges Hell to flatter Himself, He commits egotism, a sin that is common among human beings (Cheney, 2016). The weakness is depicted in Limbo and on the Gate of Hell where, for instance, God sends those who do not worship Him to Hell. This implies that failure to worship Him is a sin.

God is also depicted as lacking justice in His actions thus removing the godly image. The injustice is portrayed by the manner in which the sodomites and opportunists are treated. The opportunists are subjected to banner chasing in their lives after death followed by being stung by insects and maggots. They are known to having done neither good nor bad during their lifetimes and, therefore, justice could have demanded that they be granted a neutral punishment having lived a neutral life. The sodomites are also punished unfairly by God when Brunetto Lattini is condemned to hell despite being a good leader (Babor, T. F., McGovern, T., & Robaina, K. (2017). While he commited sodomy, God chooses to ignore all the other good deeds that Brunetto did.

Finally, God is also portrayed as being hypocritical in His actions, a sin that further diminishes His godliness and makes Him more human. A case in point is when God condemns the sin of egotism and goes ahead to commit it repeatedly. Proverbs 29:23 states that “arrogance will bring your downfall, but if you are humble, you will be respected.” When Slattery condemns Dante’s human state as being weak, doubtful, and limited, he is proving God’s hypocrisy because He is also human (Verdicchio, 2015). The actions of God in Hell as portrayed by Dante are inconsistent with the Biblical literature. Both Dante and God are prone to making mistakes, something common among human beings thus making God more human.

To wrap it up, Dante portrays God is more human since He commits the same sins that humans commit: egotism, hypocrisy, and injustice. Hell is justified as being a destination for victims of the mistakes committed by God. The Hell is presented as being a totally different place as compared to what is written about it in the Bible. As a result, reading through the text gives an image of God who is prone to the very mistakes common to humans thus ripping Him off His lofty status of divine and, instead, making Him a mere human. Whether or not Dante did it intentionally is subject to debate but one thing is clear in the poem: the misconstrued notion of God is revealed to future generations.
