What is the average amount of calories that you consumed in the form of protein? If your program uses grams be sure to multiply by 4Kcals/gram. If your program uses percentages state the average percentage of calories consumed from protein.
Are you consuming the adequate range of protein according to the AMDR?
List your protein rich food items for all days into two groups;
Animal protein foods (dairy/meat/eggs)
Plant protein (grains/legumes/nuts & seeds)
Should you alter your intake of plant to animal protein?
If you altered your intake of the above protein rich foods what effect would this have on the saturated or total fat content of your diet? Be specific.
What is the average amount of calories that you consumed in the form of carbohydrates? If your program uses grams be sure to multiply by 4Kcals/gram. If your program uses percentages state the average percentage of calories consumed from carbohydrates.
Are you consuming the adequate range of carbohydrates according to the AMDR?
(a.) LIST your carbohydrate rich foods (10 grams or more) from each day in your food record. (b.) Which contributes most to your CHO intake, starch or sugar?
What is the average number of grams of dietary fiber you ate? What are your two major sources of fiber in your diet?
What is the Adequate Intake (AI) for the recommended amount of fiber to be consumed daily (refer to your textbook)?
Should you be eating more fiber? If you need to eat more, what specific fiber rich foods could you include in your diet? (List only fiber rich foods that you are willing to eat, have time to prepare, and can afford, or are otherwise available to you).
