Response to each question must:

· contain well-developed sentences, correct spelling, and proper grammar

· demonstrate your achievement of those objectives for the lesson in your response

· include data, facts, key terminology, specific examples, and direct quotations from the textbook, Lesson and other resources to support your main point.

Provide a resource list at the conclusion of the assignment formatted as in this example:  Author(s)’ last name, first initial(s). (year).  Title in italics. Location of publisher: Publisher or retrieval information.

1. Identify six functions that proteins serve in the body and provide an example for each. (20 pts)

2. Explain how researchers use nitrogen balance to determine protein requirements for dietary recommendations such as the RDA. (5 pts)

3. Discuss in terms of nitrogen balance why requirements are different for children and pregnant women than for healthy adults? (10 pts)

4. List two conditions in which you would expect to see negative nitrogen balance and explain why negative nitrogen balance would occur. (10 pts)

5. Consider the roles of protein in the body that you listed in Question 1, and assume that you did not meet your protein DRI. (20 pts)

a. Identify three potential health consequences of not meeting your calculated RDA for protein.

b. Explain what protein functions were compromised to cause these health issues.

6. Assume that you consumed twice your protein DRI. (20 pts)

a. Identify three potential health consequences that could occur.

b. Explain how excessive protein intake can cause those health issues.

7. Replace at least two proteins you consumed with healthier choices. Explain how these replacements reduce risk for the health issues you noted in the previous question without compromising the quality of protein in your diet. (15 pts)
