SCI228 Nutrition, Health & Wellness w/Lab
Week 5 LAB  
Scenario/Summary
The Week 5 Lab is a fun opportunity for you to evaluate the benefits of sports drinks versus water.
Deliverables
The title of your presentation is “Water: An Overlooked Essential Nutrient.” A law firm has requested that you introduce yourself, explain why you are at the firm, and discuss the value of hydration. Once those elements have been addressed, the goal of this Lab is to create an essay or handout that compares water, Gatorade, and Powerade on the following categories.
Daily recommendations
Nutrient content
Varieties/sources
Cost
Advantages of consumption (include research reviews)
Safety levels
Disadvantages of consumption (include research reviews)
Conclusion
Ultimately, you need to make a recommendation on which beverage meets the needs of the law firm, and you need to back your recommendation with three pieces of evidence.
