Introduction: The amount of nutrient intake for an individual is usually assessed based on the Recommended Dietary Allowance () and the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (ADMR) guidelines. RDA values are related to the amount of nutrient and calorie intake per day, while AMDR is based on the percentage of calories of particular macronutrients.

Suppose that our test subject from problem 1 gained 55 pounds between the ages of 25 and 65 (a sadly common occur re nce) , and that her weight at 65 years of age is 175 pounds . Calculate how many excess calories she consumed per day to gain the 55 pounds over 40 years. Assume that our test subject is 5 feet 6 inches tall. What is her BMI? Would she be considered obese at 175 lbs ?
The body mass index (BMI) of a 1.6-m tall woman who normally has 3 large slices of cheese pizza and a 400 ml Coke for lunch is 30. She now decides to
change her lunch to quarter kilograms of watermelons, oranges or apples plus a scope of ice creams. Assuming that the deficit in the calorie intake is
made up by burning body fat, determine how long it will take for the BMI of this person to drop to 20. Use the data in the text for calories and take the
metabolizable energy content of 1 kg of body fat to be 33,100 kJ. Assuming that one slice of pizza contains 350 calories and 200 ml coke contains 87
calories.
Omar is a 47-year old man following a 2,400 calorie diet and has a strong genetic
risk of cardiovascular disease. Using the DGAS, what range of fat grams is
recommended for Omar? According to the American Heart Association, and others,
how many grams of saturated fat should Omar stay under per day? What is the AMA
recommendation for cholesterol per day?
Omar needs: 53-93 grams of total fat per day, with no more than 26.6 grams of
saturated fat, and no more than 300 mg of cholesterol per day.
Omar needs: 53-93 grams of total fat per day, with no more than 18.6 grams of
saturated fat, and no more than 200 mg of cholesterol per day.
Omar needs: 27-93 grams of total fat per day, with no more than 26.6 grams of
saturated fat, and no more than 200 mg of cholesterol per day.
Omar needs: 120-210 grams of total fat per day, with no more than 42 grams of
