Super Tracker Diet

When comparing my calorie, fiber, and cholesterol average intakes to the target intake, I found that both my calorie and fiber intakes were under, and my cholesterol was okay. I was kind of surprised by this because I felt that I had eaten way more calorie and cholesterol rich foods than I actually did. After I looked at the Food Groups and Calories Report, I found that I was under in every category except for protein, in which I was over. The target amount for my grains was 6 ounces, and I only ate 5. For vegetables it was 2.5 cups, and I ate 1. For fruits it was 2 cups, and I ate 0. Dairy was 3 cups, and I ingested ¼ cup. Proteins was 5.5 ounces, and I went way over with 8 ounces. Oils was 6 teaspoons, and I ingested 5 teaspoons.

Pregnancy and certain contraceptives may bring on jitters, a side effect of caffeine, to the female population. “A two- hundred-pound man who drinks a cup of coffee with a hundred milligrams of caffeine will have a maximum caffeine concentration of one milligram per kilogram of body weight. A hundred- pound woman having the same cup of coffee will reach a caffeine concentration of two milligrams per kilogram of body weight, or twice as high” (Gladwell, 233). I can usually consume two to three cups of coffee before noon, while my wife can only handle one to two before the jitters set in. The metabolism of medications changes with aging; therefore, the older population should monitor caffeine intake. My parents have switched from caffeinated to decaffeinated beverages due to how caffeine affects their body, making them feel jittery after one cup of

Coffee is viewed as an unhealthy habit by most people similar to smoking and excessive drinking of alcohol. However most studies show that poor lifestyle factors such as reduced physical activity, smoking and eating a lot of whole grains result in health risks than coffee. This is to say that coffee consumption alone is not harmful to your health. Drinking six cups of coffee in a day could result in tremors, sleeping problems and feeling stressed. However, it has no direct effect on mortality or other health factors.

After filling out my super tracker report, and viewing my results, I have to say that I was not surprised. It looks as though I haven’t consumed enough vitamins in the last three days and I am over the recommended guidelines on the fat and saturated fats. My serving sizes are usually

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

face many dangers of caffeine abuse and even overdose. Overdosing can cause many health issues

After looking at the reports of my "Actual Intakes vs Recommended Intakes" and "Calorie Assessment", almost all the amount of nutrients I consumed did not reach 80 to 110 percent of the recommended level of nutrients intake. In this way, I need to set goals or change my diet to maintain health. For example, my intake of calories was 1,468.07, but the recommended intake of calories was 2,006.03 if I wanted to keep my current weight. According to my 3-day diet reports, I realized that I should eat more foods that contain healthy fats and more vitamins. Due to this, I should consume the food like meat, vegetables, and others. Also, I should be concerned about the macronutrients intake that are the primary nutrients to keep my body healthy.

After completed my Analysis Reports in the Super Tracker program, I analyzed my dietary intake. My analysis was based the comparison of my average calorie intake to the calorie intake recommended to me based on my gender, activity level, height and weight. Looking at the calorie recommendation, I believe the recommended calorie intake is realistic. However, someone in my situation where I am a full time student and work full time, the recommendations are somewhat hard to reach. I do not have the amount of time to prepare my food in order to attain the recommended caloric intake. Based on the results, I am consuming more than, less than, or about the amount of calories recommended. In fact, I am hitting slightly under the 50% range of acquiring an “OK” status.

According to the “Food Groups and Calories” report, I was exactly on my 1.5-cup recommendation for fruits (OK), 1.5 cups under on my vegetable intake, 1.5 ounces under my grains intake, 1 ounce over on my protein intake, and 2 cups under on my dairy intake. Based on my average eaten food groups, compared to my target, I think the MyPlate recommendations are accurate for me, but appear hard to grasp. When looking at the target intakes of the food groups, it appears that I would need to greatly increase my consumption of food, as I only met the requirements of two of the five food groups. The reason that I believe that the MyPlate recommendations are accurate for me is because these recommendations reflect my age, gender, and activity level. With these three considerations, exact serving sizes were created to meet the recommended requirements, to prevent disease and promote health. The recommended serving sizes would accurately provide the necessary vitamins and minerals for my health.

I used Supertracker, which is a diet analysis software, in which I used to help determine modifications in his diet prescription. As for nutrients, Justin needed to add more nutrients to his diet because of his poor eating habits. The foods that we decided to eliminate were soda's since he has about one to two protein shakes a day. The foods that we decided to include were all areas of the food pyramid because he is lacking in most areas. I suggested that he try's to eat about 6 ounces of grains a day, 2 ½ cups of vegetables a day, 2 cups of fruits a day, about 2 ½ to 3 cups of milk/dairy products a day, and about 5 ½ to 6 ounces of meat and/or beans a day. I told him that he doesn't have to make this change overnight but it is he gradually

During my 24-hour recall, I realized some new things about my diet. I was able to analyze and inspect my diet to examine what I was eating, what types of nutrients I was getting. This diet that I recorded for this project very closely resembles what i eat on an everyday basis. I found some very interesting facts that pertained to my diet that were good and then some that needed work and to be altered. I consumed a little more than two cups that is recommended for the fruit group, two and a half cups of vegetables, a little more than three ounces of grains, as well as five ounces of protein. What I noticed was that I consumed the right amount, if not more, for most of the food groups; but I barely have any dairy in my diet. The only time I ate any dairy was when I had a bowl of cereal for breakfast and the cheese that was on my burger. According to choosemyplate.gov, I should be consuming three cups of dairy and I barely have one cup

According to my three-day food diary report, I demonstrated a diet pattern that truly lacks a healthy balance of vital nutrients. First of all, my kilocalorie intake nearly quadrupled that of my dietary reference intake (DRI) range. Secondly, my total lipids reported as considered within my DRI range. However, it was at the highest allowable percentage. Therefore, had it been one percent higher, it would have been above my recommended dietary reference intake.

While my total calories and added sugar intake are about right, I need to be careful in the future because the current data shows that I am approaching the upper limit.

This paper shows what exactly I all ate over the past three days while putting all the foods in the following food groups to show me if I have a healthy and balanced diet. All this data was collected by myself and put into a website called SuperTracker. SuperTracker is a website used by many when it comes to recording there daily foods they consumed. Not only did this show me if I was eating the necessary amount off of each step of the food pyramid but also did it show me the amount of calories I was taking in versus the amount of calories I should be taking in. In this paper you will see my daily physical activity and the amount of minutes I put into a week in just 3 days being an athlete. This paper examines just my diet through March 8th- March 10th for every meal and every snack I had each day. I will explain the rest in this paper about the food I consumed and my physical activity and if it’s enough for me.

Initially, Arteria’s diet consisted mainly of fast foods and carbohydrates, eaten twice a day, in the afternoon and evening. This has sharply contradicted with the dietary recommendations from the Super Tracker. Arteria routinely consumed coffee in the morning and some sugary snacks and bread during lunch. The fast food and junk foods she ate contained oil, sugar, and lots of calories, which could eventually lead to an unsustainable development of obesity. Her dinner contained starch and proteins, mainly green vegetables, beans, and meat, usually in proportionate quantities and qualities. This type of daily routine, according to the website
