SCI 241 Week 4 Food Intake – 3 Days

Enter your food intake for 3 full days in iProfile by following the WileyPLUS® iProfile

instructions. Save this information.

Click on the Access to iProfile link.

Write a 750- to 1,050-word paper that addresses the following points about your 3-day

food intake:

Recorded intake of protein, carbohydrates, and lipids

o Which foods in your recorded daily intake provide protein? Which provide

carbohydrates? Which provide lipids?

o Review how your recorded protein, carbohydrate, and lipid intake

compares with the recommendations of the dietary reference intake. If

your recorded protein-carbohydrate-fat intake was too high or too low,

which foods might you add or remove to achieve your goal and keep other

nutrients in balance?

o Is the protein in each food you ate complete or incomplete, combining to

become complementary? Why is this important?

o How much of your daily recommended protein, carbohydrates, and lipid

intake did you achieve? If your macronutrient intake is insufficient or

excessive, what might you do to bring it into the recommended range?

Provide specific recommendations.

Macronutrient intake ranges

o Is macronutrient intake within the recommended range important? What

are the effects of too much or too little of a macronutrient? What happens

if you consistently eat too little protein? What happens if you eat too few

carbohydrates? What happens if you eat too few lipids?

Fiber intake ranges

o Does your fiber total meet 100% of the recommendation for you, as

calculated at iProfile?

o 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?

o Which specific foods provide the most fiber in your meals? Which provide

the least? Identify trends in your food choices that might affect your fiber

intakes.

Dietary modifications

o What changes might you make to increase the fiber in your diet?

o How might insufficient or excessive amounts of proteins, carbohydrates,

fats, or fiber contribute to health or illness? Provide examples.

o What have you learned about your diet?

Cite three references other than the course text.
