QUESTIONS. Submit answers as a word document:
1) (3pt) In the Unit 3 project you compared the average percentage of your calories from carbohydrate to the recommended AMDR’s. While this method could also be used to assess your protein, we are going to look at protein in another way by first calculating your protein needs based on your current body weight. If your current weight is not ideal, you may choose to calculate using your ideal weight.
a. Determine your RDA for protein using page 212 of textbook. Show your work. The formula is: Weight in pounds divided by 2.2 = weight in kilograms. Then take weight in kg x 0.8g/kg = your RDA for protein in grams.
2) (3pt) Refer to your menu totals at the bottom of each day’s Food Detail Report.
a. List the total grams of protein for each day.
b. Calculate and provide your 3 day average protein gram intake.
c. How does your 3 day average protein intake compare to your calculated RDA from Q1? (If excessive, please consider the risks of protein excesses as discussed on Text page 226.)
3) (6pts) Refer to your Food Detail Reports.
a. List 3 different items that contributed the highest amount of solid fat calories and/or highest % of calories from saturated fat. Identify a healthy alternative for each item.
b. What were your high quality or complete protein choices in the three recorded days? What were your low quality or incomplete protein choices? (Refer to Text Pg205)
4) (3pts) Refer to your Unit 2 Food Groups & Calories Report, review your ‘average eaten’ column.
Did you vary your protein choices by including dairy and all three protein types? If not, which protein area were you lacking in or consumed zero?
