Nutrition Jeopardy

Entertain and teach your audience with a game of Nutrition Jeopardy! Suitable for ages 13+.

This game will last 30-45 minutes.

This file contains the PowerPoint presentation complete with theme music and other sound features, as well as a Word document with all of the questions and answers.

Question categories include:

• Food Groups (Example [$300]: Calcium and vitamin D are the main nutrients found in this food group.)
• Vitamins & Minerals
• Herbs & Spices (Example [$100]: This herb has a reputation for causing bad breath.)
• Ethnic Foods
• Diet & Disease

Each category has a $100, $200, $300, $400, and $500 question. There is also one Daily Double and a Final Jeopardy question.

How to Play:

1. Divide the group into teams. (2-3 works best)
2. Have each team select a spokesperson.
3. Have team #1 select a category / value on the board.
4. Click the value to be sent to the question.
5. Click to start the timer, or set your own amount of time for the team to give an answer.
6. Click to reveal the answer, and then click the home to be sent back to the board. Selected questions will turn blue.
   • Alternatively, since you have the list of questions and answers, if the team gets the question wrong, you could give the others a chance to steal before clicking to the answer.
7. In the “daily double” question, the team can risk any amount they wish, up to their entire total. If their total is less than $500, they can risk up to $500.
8. In Final Jeopardy, each team sets their wager before the question is revealed.
9. The team with the most points / money at the end wins!
