Lab 5: Healthier You
Throughout history a number of scientists have been so eager to test their hypotheses, they
have even tested out on themselves to find the answers the sought. Some have even gone to
extremes: Scientists who Experimented on Themselves. If you just read that, fear not… I will
not ask you to smear yourself with potentially infected feces here, I promise!
What I would like you to do, is test how your body reacts to proper nutrition and care.
For this week I would like you to run an experiment on your own body.
Choose a healthy change that you feel you can
try out for the week.
Here are some examples:
Increase water intake: Drink 8 – 8 oz glasses of water each day.
Cut out fast food
Increase vegetables/fruit in your diet (try to double at least)
Stop a bad habit (drinking, smoking, etc)
Increase exercise

Record and Observe!
Do this new behavior for three days in a row
Record how you feel, respond, react at least 5 times in each day
Include details, even if you feel they might be “unseemly” (If you drink more water, you
will need to void that water more often, after all!)
Follow the Sample Lab Format to record your data and observations!
