Teenage Diet Facts
Many teenagers feel a desire to diet, whether it's for health reasons or because they feel pressured to look a certain way. However, it's important that teens understand the proper way to diet to avoid unhealthy behavior.Assessment
- Like adults, teenagers can use online tools to figure out their body mass index (BMI). Teens can then find where they fall on the BMI percentile chart, by searching online or consulting their physician. If they fall above the 85th percentile on the chart, they are considered overweight and should consider a healthy diet plan.
Considerations
- When teenagers hit puberty, their bodies go through a number of healthy changes. For example, according to Teens Health, broadening hips are one of those changes. Even if a teen is considered overweight, these natural changes cannot be avoided through dieting.
Warning
What Should My Weight Be for My Age & Height?
Height is often the main factor used when determining a healthy weight; however, age is a strong factor taken into consideration when determining healthy weight for an important part of the population.BMI
- Body mass index (BMI) is a ratio of weight to height used to classify individuals into health risk categories taking into account weight and height for adults and age, sex, weight and height for children ages 2 to 20. Only BMI data for children and teens take age and sex into consideration, because in this age group the amount of body fat changes with age and differs among boys and girls.
Percentiles
- Percentiles are measurements on a chart that show where a child is in regards to sex, age and height compared with other children. Children and teens are underweight if their BMI value in relation to their gender and age fall into the less than fifth percentile, healthy weight if between the fifth and 85th percentile, overweight if between the 85th and 95th percentile and obese if equal to or greater than the 95th percentile.
Weight
- A weight-to-height ratio that predicts an overweight or obese percentile should prompt action for weight loss, but a weight loss regimen should not be considered before consulting a physician. Factors such as hormones, genetics and environment all influence height and weight. The doctor will take all these factors into consideration and make necessary recommendations for action from there.
Mengenal Fisika
Yunani Kuno
Kajian fisika umumnya dianggap berawal dari masa Yunani Kuno, dimana para filsuf menolak penjelasan mitologi murni bagi femomena fisik. Namun, para ahli fisika Yunani bersandar pada pemikiran, dengan hanya sedikit eksperimen. Sebagai contoh, mereka mereka menganggap materi pasti terbentuk dari bagian-bagian kecil (atom) yang tidak dapet dibagi, tetapi mereka tidak menganggap perlu mendapatkan bukti percobaan untuk teori ini. Meski demikian, beberapa bidang fisika berkembang pesat dimasa ini: mekanika (gaya dan gerakan) dan optik (perilaku cahaya). Kontribusi paling terkenal bagi fisika Yunani kuno diberikan oleh Aristoteles, dengan gagasan yang memengaruhi fisika selama 2000 tahun, kendati ada fakta bahwa banyak gagasan itu memiliki cacat fundamental.
Zaman Pertengahan
Ketika universitas pertama didirikan di Eropa pada abad ke-12 dan ke-13, fisika Yunani menjadi basis kajian dunia alami. Gagasan Yunani Kuno dipelihara oleh adakemisi Muslim. Mereka belajar dari pada filsuf Yunani yang melakukan perjalanan ke timur. Di universitas, gagasan Aristoteles diterima tetepi kemudian diubah secara bertahap. Sebagai contoh: pandangan Aristoteles tentang gaya dan gerak dikembangkan menjadi teori "impetus" yaitu satu ide yang serupa dengan konsep momentum modern pada abad ke-14.
