Hypokinetic Disease Poster

Final project fall 2022

The topic that we researched was diabetes we were put into groups of 4. The task we do research a hypokinetic design and then create the poster.  Our poster had multiple topics including ways to prevent diabetes, the risk of diabetes, and what happens when inside the body when you are diagnosed. We started with the whole group doing research and then putting it onto a doc to then put down on paper. I researched ways to prevent diabetes while my other group members did the other concepts. 

Concept on how to prevent type 2 diabetes. Lose extra weight, Losing weight reduces the risk of diabetes.

Be more physically active, There are many benefits to regular physical activity. Eat healthy plant foods, Plants provide vitamins, minerals, and carbohydrates in your diet. Eat healthy fats, Skip fad diets and make healthier choices. Non-starchy vegetables such as peppers, mushrooms, asparagus, broccoli, and spinach. Fruits. Lean protein such as fish, chicken, turkey, tofu, eggs, and yogurt. Whole grains such as quinoa, brown rice, and steel-cut oatmeal. Water and unsweetened beverages.

Concept two risk of diabetes Common diabetes health complications include heart disease, chronic kidney disease, nerve damage, and other problems with feet, oral health, vision, hearing, and mental health. Learn how to prevent or delay these diabetes complications and how to improve overall health.

Concept three what happens inside your body

Diabetes majorly increases the risk of many heart problems. These can include coronary artery disease with chest pain, heart attack, stroke, and narrowing of arteries. If you have diabetes, you're more likely to have heart disease or stroke. Nerve damage. With diabetes, your body doesn't make enough insulin or can't use it as well as it should. When there isn't enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious health problems, such as vision loss, and kidney disease.

I feel like this project went very well for me and my group. I feel like we worked together very well and our ideas worked well together we were able to split up the work evenly so everyone had and even amount of work to do. I think that our project came out very well and I enjoyed doing it. I think that I listen very well but also brought ideas to the table. I learned more about working as a group and giving even loads of work to each group member. I could have done better with planning out the project a little bit more instead of just going for it. I dont think anything went super poorly except for having a good flow of everyone working because usually we had only one person working on the poster at a time and if we had set it up better I think we could have been more efficient.
