Food Groups And Calories Report

Based on a 24 Hour Recall of my diet, results using NutriCalc Plus report that my food intake lacked a healthy balance of all food groups. My Grain intake reached only 60% of the My Plate daily recommendations. My Vegetable intake was a mere 50% of the recommended servings. Additionally, I consumed 84% of the daily recommendations for the Dairy Group. Nonetheless, I did exceed the recommendations for the Fruit Group and Protein Group with intakes of 155% and 107%, respectively.

* At least 5 helpings of fruit or vegetable in raw, cooked, tinned dried or frozen form but limiting fruit juices to one serving only as they lack sufficient fibre. These are a

I was kind of surprised by the numbers because I have never studied my daily intakes before and they are showing that I eat a lot of carbohydrates. Macronutrients are relatively needed in large amounts. I had consumed a vast quantity of these nutrients during my three day period. For example, 21 water bottles along with the above mentioned proteins, carbohydrates and lipids.

The overall quality of my diet was extremely poor. Although I was able to stay below my recommended 2200 Calorie consumption both days; the amount of fat, saturated fat, protein, carbohydrates, cholesterol, and sodium exceeded my desired range. I have never taken the amount of cholesterol I ingest into thought because I considered cholesterol an elderly problem. The act of recording all I consumed in a single day informed me of eating problems I have and was formerly unaware of. Another piece of information my food log revealed was, the quality of food I chose when

Do you believe restaurants should be required to label the calories ,fat content, and sodium on their menus? I agree to this controversial argument! If a law was created that required restaurants and diners around the nation to display calories and other health concerns many people would be healthier.

I am under on this requirement by 456 since I only eat an average of 1544 calories. According to SuperTracker, I should consume 46 grams of protein daily which I exceed with 50 grams. For vitamins, I am under on some while I meet about half. I am under on vitamin A, C, D, E, and K along with Choline. Vitamin A, D, E, K and Choline is considered inadequate. In the mineral section, I am just under many including Copper, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, and Zinc while my intake of Calcium and Potassium is considered to be inadequate. I meet the requirements for Sodium, Phosphorus, and Selenium. I consumed only 68% of the recommended amount for dietary fiber. Overall, I am under on many

Does your diet meet the minimum number of servings of foods from each fiber-containing group? If not, which of the fiber-containing groups—fruits and vegetables—fell short of the recommended intake?

His target for calories is 3,185 per day and he reached 1808 calories which was identified as under. According to the attached analysis, he consumed 122g of protein, 206 g of carbohydrates and 40 grams for fat which were all recognized as ok according to the analysis. For fruits and vegetables his status was considered under for both. For fruits the recommended amount was 2 ½ cups and he only consumed 2 cups and for vegetables the recommended amount was 4 cups and he only consumed 2 ½ cups. His fiber intake for that day was 18 g and the recommended amount was 38 g which was not adequate enough based on the recommendation.

Some of the restricted foods include cereals, bread, pasta, refined sugar, and large portions of foods. The recommended percentage for protein intake is 25 percent, for fat is 50 percent and only 25 for carbohydrates.

The fiber intakes meet the recommendation calculated by I Profile. Since the recommendation was met, I believe that the fiber intake was just right. However, I do not believe that my diet met the minimum number of servings of food from each of the fiber containing groups. I believe that the both groups for fruits and vegetables fell short of the minimum number of servings. The specific foods that provided the most fiber were pasta, and a bagel. Whereas, the foods that provided the least were the BBQ chips, Croissant, sausage. It appears that the trend in my food choices is that there are not enough fruits and vegetables, which affects my fiber intake.

Many people would most likely want to see what the calories or sodium they are having on the menu. Escpecially people that are on diets or like to stay healthy. So I agree that they should show the sodium, how many calories, and fat content on the menus.

I will be making sure to eat more fibrous foods to meet my target. In regards to the macronutrients I was very surprised that I had not met the target on many of the nutrients. Upon looking at the report it seems that I fell shy of meeting my target consumption of these nutrients by very little. Unfortunately I noticed that my potassium intake was low, it seems that I only ate about half of what I should be consuming. This surprised me especially since we always have bananas on hand at my house. I will try to make an effort to incorporate more foods into my diet that have potassium like bananas and prunes.

When looking trough the results of the information I entered for the Food Tracker, I was amazed on what I was seeing. The students are receiving less than the daily group targets. The target for March 10,2016 consisted of 2 ½ oz grains when they needed to intake 6 oz, which is under the daily group target. For vegetables the target was 2 ½ oz and they only ate 1 cup, fir fruits the target was 2 cups and they ate 1 cup, dairy they ate 1 cup and the target was 3 and finally

My personal recommendations for foods based on an 1800 calorie diet were based on the food group of fruit, vegetables, grains, protein and dairy products. These groups, they had a certain amount of ingestion for each one.
