Nutrition Through the Life Cycle (...
This case study requires use of the American Dietetic Association’s Nutrition Care Process.
Mr. Trigger, a 29-year-old male, and his healthy 32-year-old wife have been unable to conceive after two years of unprotected intercourse. Results of medical tests led Mr. Trigger to be diagnosed with male-factor infertility due to low sperm production. No other health problems were identified. His weight was assessed to be 260 lbs (118 kg) and his height measured 5 ft 10 in. (1.78 m). Mr. Trigger was referred to a registered dietitian for nutritional assessment, diagnoses, intervention, and follow-up.
Results of the nutritional assessment revealed that Mr. Trigger was physically inactive and consumed an average of 145 calories more per day than recommended based on his weight, height, and physical activity level. Results of assessments of Mr. Trigger’s dietary and supplement intake; nutrition-focused physical findings;
What is Mr. Trigger’s BMI?
To explain: BMI of Person T.
Introduction: Body mass index (BMI) is obtained by dividing weight (in kg) by square of height (in m). If BMIs is greater than 18.5, it is considered underweight, while people with a BMI level of 18.5-24.9 is normal weight, 25-29.9 overweight, and people with BMIs 30 and higher is considered under obesity.
As given in the case study, Person T is a 29-year old male and his wife who was 32-year old was not able to conceive even after two years of unprotected intercourse. The results of the medical tests indicate that Person T was diagnosed with male-factor infertility due to the low production of sperm. Person T’s weight was 260 lbs (118 kg), and his height was 5 ft 10 in. (1.78 m). Later, he consulted a registered dietitian in order for the nutritional assessment, intervention, and follow-up. Also, Person T was physically not active and he consumed an average of 145 calories more per day than recommended based on his weight, height, and his level of physical activity.
The expression for the body mass index is as follows:
