Please help provide correct answer that's not too long.
What can happen with fat deposits in the liver, when a lot of extra dietary carbohydrate is provided? What about if there is very low carbohydrate in the diet?
Recommended percent of kcal (Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range - AMDR)
Percent of kcal from nutrient in your diet
Carbohydrate
45 - 65 % of kcals
Fat
20-35% of kcals
Did you consume the appropriate percent of kcal from carbohydrates, protein and fat? If not, how might you adjust your kcal to better meet the recommendations and what changes in your food intake could accomplish this?
Carbohydrate Intake - Further Analysis (6 points)
*note: if you are using myplate, ignore the recommendation of 130 grams for total carbohydrate on your printout.....that is a minimum not a recommended amount
3. Average grams of fiber consumed ______________________.
4. Percent of goal for fiber ________________________ (average fiber consumed divided by fiber recommended * 100)
5. Are you getting enough fiber (100% of goal for question 4)? If not, how might you fix this?
6. Take a look at your list of foods....are lots of your kcals coming from sugar? Only 10% or less of your total kcals should be coming from refined (added) sugar...how do you think you did? ______________________________________________
Fat Intake - Further Analysis (8 points)
7. Average grams of saturated fat consumer per day:_______________________
8. Percent of kcals from saturated fat per day: ______________________________ (Hint: average grams of sat. fat consumed times 9 kcals per gram divided by total kcals consumed)
9. Did you consume more that 10% of your kcals from saturated fat? If so, how might you reduce saturated fat?
(you do not need to be worried about consuming too little since there are no essential fatty acids that are saturated)
note: if you are using diet analysis plus to evaluate your diet, you can look at the spreadsheet report to see how much of a given nutrient is in each food that you ate.. For example, if your saturated fat were high, you could look at the spreadsheet report to see what foods contributed the most saturated fat to the diet. You can then think about reducing portion size or making substitutions
10. Average milligrams of cholesterol per day: ____________________________________. Are you consuming more than 300 milligrams of cholesterol? If so, how might you reduce this?
11. Are you consuming foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids? If so, what are they? If not, how might you increase your intake of omega-3 fatty acids?
Protein Intake - Further Analysis (6 points)
12. What is your protein RDA? (Multiply your body weight in kilograms by 0.8 g PRO/kg)
13. Are you consuming an appropriate amount of protein? (Recommendation is to consume a minimum of the RDA amount and a maximum of twice the RDA)
14. If you are not within the range indicated in question 13, indicate how you might adjust your diet.
