Introduction

This report covers the food Daily Food Groups Report of the food types consumed including the analysis of the calories requirement in accordance with the average calorie limit for my food intake. This is with regards to tracking my dietary intake to ensure that I maintain a strong and healthy body by eating balanced diet. The food groups include among the following:

Proteins, carbohydrates, fats and sugars, among other micronutrients such as calcium, sodium and many others as will be shown and explained in the paper. On the same note, it is advised that one should not carry eat more calories than what his target due to bringing of adverse body effects. The report outlines my food intake program including my calorie level and the limits which I may have surpassed. This report has assisted me to have a balance intake and thus being able to correct over consumption of more calories. To begin with the following food group report shows the food level of calories taken for each food group:

Information about dietary supplements. *** Nutrients that appear twice ( protein, carbohydrate, linoleic acid, and α-linolenic acid ) have two separate recommendations: 1) Amount eaten (in grams) compared to your minimum recommended intake. 2) Percent of Calories eaten from that nutrient compared to the recommended range. You may see different messages in the status column for these 2 different recommendations.

SUMMARY OF THE NUTRITION REPORT RESULTS

The nutrition food report intake plan is based on the daily calorie allowance targets of 3200. The allowance is based on the weight and physical activities basing on the amount of food required to sustain the energy consumption by those activities. The nutrient report targets a total of 56 grams of proteins which is equivalent to 21 percent calories taken on a daily basis, 130 grams of carbohydrates translating 61 % calories on the primary food group combinations, 80 grams of fat which translates to 20-35 percent calories on a daily basis gram of fats, 38 grams of dietary fiber which is equivalent to 17% calories on a daily basis.

On the other hand the level of protein is ok but sufficient in relations to the speculations from the tables shown above. There is need to consume more proteins in order meet the daily target 3200 calories. Similarly the level of carbohydrates is also wanting and therefore there is need increase the intake of more food rich in carbohydrates even though carbohydrates take the greatest percentage of calorie intake. Moreover the daily limit for calcium is under hence the target plan. There is need to increase the intake of foods rich in calcium so as to provide strong bones and teeth. Calcium is an important micro-nutrient which should be taken to ensure the body remains strong and efficient. Other micronutrients plan intake and their level of calories are ok as detailed in the nutrient report shown above.

In summary the balance of food intake should meet the daily target of the specified amount of calories so as to ensure one’s body remains strong and healthy and also to remain fit.
