Web Reviews

Review #2
Website: http://www.nutrition.com.sg/
My second web review is based on nutrition.com.sg. This is one of the most common used website when I was doing my F00d & Nutrition coursework when I was in Secondary 4. As the datas in this website is from Singapore's context, thus making it relevant to our local context when applying into real life situation.

On a whole, there are many different tabs in this website that will navigate you away to other websites. For example, if you click onto "Healthy Eating" it will bring you to a page regarding healthy eating like, Healthy Eating Tips, The Healthy Diet Pyramid, etc. which is a useful source of information for researches.

Clicking onto 'Nutrition Calculators' brings you to this page where they give an overview on what nutrition calculators are and giving you a summary of how each of this calculators work and what is it used for.

For instance, the Body Mass Index calculator is as above. All you have to do is to input all your information required and the computer will generate your BMI. After having the BMI, there is also a chart to compare the BMI, thus allowing yourself to know what is the acceptable BMI for your height.

After comparing the graph, still confused on what it means? This website contains many visual aids to facilitate understanding of the different BMI values.

On top of that, this website provides tips on dining outside, for instance how to overcome some problems dining outside. It even explains it further by telling you what to choose from when you are dining outside so as to make the meal more nutritious.

Additional information on vitamins, minerals and a glossary of words are available in this website. The information is very useful provides people with no nutrition knowledge as it is very general and easy to understand.

By clicking onto 'Glossary' there is a long list of words with its explanations. Thus if you ever come across any words that you do not understand, why not check the glossary page? (:

I hope that my second review is user friendly to you and you will be able to use nutrition.com.sg in your projects or even for simple understanding! (:
