Nutrient Intakes For krizzy_622 on 5/28/2007
A nutrient recommendation is a target or goal for intake of a nutrient.
Your requirement for a particular nutrient is unique to you, but it is
likely to be lower than the recommended number. If your intake is at or
above this number, then it is probably adequate. If your intake is below
this number, that does not necessarily mean an inadequate intake. If
today's intake is typically what you eat, and your intake for a nutrient
is at or above the recommendation, it is likely that your intake of that
nutrient is adequate. To better assess your usual nutrient intake, you
should report foods eaten for two or more days and review HYPERLINK
"http://www.mypyramidtracker.gov/heihistory.aspx?fromni=true" your
nutrient intake over time . Click HYPERLINK
"http://www.mypyramidtracker.gov/nutrientintakes3.aspx" here if you
want to see your nutrient profile with technical assessment information.

Food Journal Analysis
Can someone please help me along here? I have attached the food intake for today, May 28, 2007.
a) How did your recorded protein intake compare with the recommendation of the CNPP?
b) If your recorded protein intake was too high or too low, which foods might you change to achieve your goal and keep other nutrients in balance? In other words, if your protein level is not where it needs to be according to CNPP, what can you do to bring it into the recommended range? Be specific.
c) Which foods in your recorded daily intake provide protein?
d) Is the protein in each of these foods complete, or are they incomplete, thus combining to become complementary? Explain the concept of complementary proteins.
e) Why is your protein intake within a recommended range important? What are the effects of too much protein? What happens if you consistently eat too little protein?
f) Did your fiber total meet 100 percent of the recommendation for you as calculated by the CNPP website?
g) Did you think your fiber intake was too high, too low, or just right? Why do you think so?
h) If you did not meet your minimum fiber requirement, which fiber-containing groups (fruits and vegetables) fell short of the recommended intake?
i) Which specific foods provided the most fiber in your day's meals? Which provided the least? Identify trends in your food choices that would affect your fiber intakes.
j) What alterations might you make among your vegetables, fruit, meat and alternatives, or grain choices to increase the fiber in your meals?
k) What contributions do meats and milk products make to the day's fiber total? What advice about fiber would you give to someone who emphasizes meat and milk products at each meal? How would you tell him or her to change his or her diet? What foods would you tell him or her to include in his or her diet?
l) Did your meals include fiber-rich bean dishes such as chili, beans in a salad, or split pea soup? Anyone interested in obtaining fiber should find ways to eat some legumes each day.
m) If you chose to drink fruit juice instead of to eat whole fruit, what would happen to the fiber content of your diet? If you chose to drink purchased fruit juice instead of to eat whole fruit, what would happen to the calorie content of your diet?
This question and solution examines a day in a food diary and analyses it for nutritional content.
