Group Summary
Based on a kosher lunch menu, our group chose 4 lunch meals that a 60 year - old female, weighing 125 lbs, at 5’2” height consumed. The results of the cronometer show that vitamin A is the excess nutrient in the meals. Vitamin A helps the body enhance vision, immune growth, and reproductive health (Arnarson, 2017). However, an excess of vitamin A in the diet leads to a condition called hypervitaminosis, characterized by a change in vision and bone pain (Pietrangelo, 2018). Thus, it is necessary to maintain the nutrient at the recommended levels.
Obtained from the cronometer results, the nutrients that are deficient include energy, water, fiber, net carbs, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, vitamin B5, vitamin B12, folate, vitamin D, vitamin E, fat, omega - 3, omega - 6, calcium, copper, magnesium, manganese, potassium, and selenium. A nutritional deficiency occurs when the body cannot absorb the required amount of essential nutrients, leading to health complications (Olsen, 2019). Energy maintains a normal metabolism and enhances the growth of the body cells. Water is a critical component in the body, and it makes up 70% of blood. Carbohydrates are the main source of energy in the body, while fiber is a critical element in the digestion process. Vitamins are essential to reduce susceptibility to diseases and enhance body processes like vision, nerve coordination and bone development. Fat helps in the building of tissues; both omega - 3 and omega - 6 are necessary for promoting mental health and the immune system. Minerals such as calcium, magnesium, manganese, potassium and selenium help the body to develop strong bones, and are critical for blood components, and in maintaining normal body metabolism processes. With this, it is essential to maintain them at optimum levels for the benefit of the body.
Conclusion
The 60 year - old female has more of a deficient in essential nutrients than excess. Maintaining optimum levels of vitamin A in our patients diet is vital to prevent the condition, hypervitaminosis. Additionally, she needs to consider increasing her levels of energy, water, vitamins, fat, and minerals. Considering that her body is beyond the active age, energy is essential to keep her metabolism regular. Vitamins are also important to prevent chronic disease development, as well as, overall supplementation. Minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and manganese play a key role in ensuring that our patients bones remain strong, despite her age. Therefore, it is crucial to have a well - planned and balanced diet that incorporates all essential nutrients and minerals at optimal levels to enhance her quality of life. Furthermore, it is important to understand that not every patient is traditional in following a Kosher diet. With keeping that in mind, it is important to note that some of our meals include meat and dairy products together based on the understanding that all patients may not strictly adhere to their traditional religious practice.
