Abstract:

The study obtained the results from the responses of the college faculty in the University of the Immaculate Conception (UIC), Main Campus. The respondents were given survey questionnaires in which they checked the choices that correspond to their answers. They underwent anthropometric (height, weight, and BMI), clinical and dietary assessments. The study aimed at finding a perfect nutrition program to be implemented in order for the faculty to be aware whether their body weight is normal. Moreover, if the program suggested would be successfully implemented, the faculty members would be able to improve their eating habits. Also, they would be knowledgeable in choosing nutritious foods that they should take.
