I am interested in this topic because when I was in high school I was diagnosed with a disease called scurvy. It has always fascinated me to learn about what eating healthy means and what happens to someone's body when they do not eat the right things your body needs. This research question affects me and my values because it hits me personally with eating improperly not getting all the nutrients my body needs. I am qualified to write about this because I went through a six-month process of hospital visits, blood test, and "experiments" to figure out what was wrong. When I was diagnosed with scurvy I was given lots of information and research and learned a lot personally on the topic.  I was also given information towards a good diet. It is a very fascinating topic and look forward to researching more on the topic. 

Reading an article from Mayo clinic I knew I had a trusted website. The article was called What is a healthy balanced diet? The central claim in the article was what the proper amounts of each food group was necessary when eating for a healthy diet. The evidence it had was giving examples of the food you should eat that go in every food group. The issue is when you do not eat healthy you can get sick and also deal with obesity. This is an informative article therefore there is no personal bias from the author, but the credibility is strong because it's a very well known and reliable source. 

In the second article, I Googled for an article based what Scurvy is and how you get it. I discovered everything about scurvy. In the article it gave a short summary describing on the history of scurvy. Scurvy is an ancient disease that pirates used to get in the 1800s. Scurvy is a vitamin C deficiency that causes you to get spots all over your body and more. The major values at stake for the article are giving the accurate information to a disease. The interests at stake are for people who may be trying to figure out if they have the disease by discovering the symptoms and then also learning what to do to fix them. There is no bias in this article because it is an informative article as well. With this the author stated the facts known about the disease: symptoms, history, treatment. 

In the third article I found, " Nutrition Basics" I read all about the different types of fats that are good and bad towards your body. The article gives you examples on what fats are good and bad, how much of something wont hurt you or whether or not it will. The major values this article gives is to help people learn how to eat healthy and what the "jibberish" on all the packaging of food actually means. Mayo clinic is a very credible source. Since this article was written via mayo clinic it is a very trustful source.   

The research question I came up with is arguable because people have different opinions on the subject of what is right and wrong to eat to have a healthy diet. They also may have different opinions as to why people may or may not get diseases, like scurvy, based on your diet. The different perspectives of the sources help me keep my mind of the same side of the argument as I already have. I learned more information about this topic through these topics. I might revise my research topic by making it a more broader topic allowing myself to branch out more between a healthy diet with good nutrition and moving closer to what happens when you have a bad diet you not only will become obese, but you will also get diseases. I am also thinking about mentioning what types of foods are bad i.e. how mcdonalds vs a salad from whole foods differs.
