...Food Intake Food Intake Assignment Mitchell Whitehead SCI/241 May 16. 2015 Timothy Baghurst Food Intake Assignment For this assignment I recorded my complete daily food intake for three consecutive days. During this three day time period I would say that all of the food that I consumed was a great example of my daily diet. They are the foods that I do normally eat, and with that being said this three day food intake armed me with some important information about my diet. I have learned a great deal about my diet in these short three days. I learned a great deal about my normal, or usual, protein, carbohydrate, and lipid intake. I must say that I was genuinely surprised at the results of looking at my carbohydrate, protein, and lipid intake. I gained a majority of protein from three different food sources: New York strip steak which afforded me a whopping 90.3 grams of protein, Roasted turkey meat (no skin) –which gave me 24.9 grams of protein, and deviled eggs which I gained 17.9 grams of protein from. I must say that I was quite surprised by the protein intake from the deviled eggs. Looking over the summary for the three days I was highly surprised by my high volume of carbohydrate intake. It seems as though a great deal of food that I consume on a daily basis is packed full of carbohydrates. The top sources from which I consumed the most carbohydrates is as follows: New York strip steak (64.8 grams), Bagels (31.0 grams), and Chef Boyardee Spaghetti and meatballs...

...Nutrition Intake – 3 Days Your Name University of Phoenix Abstract The objective of this study was to assess the amount of nutrients I receive daily based on my daily meal plan. My daily intake was compared against the recommended intake for someone of my height, weight, and age. The list of foods that I ate daily was saved into my iProfile and then compiled to reflect my intake for a 72 hour period. The amount of macronutrients I intake daily was analyze and then each single nutrient was analyze and compared to the recommended daily intake. My diet was high in proteins but low in carbs which resulted in a low fiber intake. The findings in this study showed me that what I thought was a healthy meal plan, was actually missing essential macronutrients critical for body function. Nutrition Intake – 3 Days During the past 72 hours, I recorded everything I ate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. After recording my intake in the Wiley iProfile and reviewing the reports, I gained a better understanding of my diet by comparing my daily nutrition intake to what is recommended by the Dietary Reference Intake. The foods in my daily intake that provided protein were the eggs, yogurt, turkey sandwiches, chicken breasts, lima beans, protein shakes, turnip greens, broccoli, and the subway salad. The foods that provided carbohydrates were the eggs, yogurt, turkey sandwiches, chicken breasts, lima...

...The Importance of Nutrients for Optimal Health | July 16 2013 | The importance of nutrients in our daily diets and the effects that can occur from poor dietary intakes. A three day dietary intake study of Patricia Martineau. | SCI/220 Instructor: Amber Carpe | A balance of nutrients is important to maintain optimal health and energy levels. Scientific studies have clarified that taking a nutritional approach, and controlling the intake of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins can decrease health risks associated with one’s dietary intake. A staggering increase in diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and other medical conditions has lead medical professionals to recognize that controlled diets can help restore ideal health and lower the risk of medical conditions associated with poor diet. In my own personal 3 day food intake study, I became aware of the importance of balancing proper proportions, eating frequent meals as opposed to binge eating, and the dietary modifications that are necessary for me obtain optimal health. This study has helped me to understand the importance of balancing nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates and lipids. Proteins are foods that come from animals and plant sources and contain a good source of zinc, iron and calcium, but many of these foods can contain a high level of saturated fats and cholesterol. Foods rich in protein help regulate body functions including the immune system. Carbohydrates are a good source of fiber and micronutrients...

...2012 Kerri Kislin Tracking food intakes is essential to determine if a person is consuming adequate nutrients over periods. Tracking intakes helps to get on track and stay on track with healthy nutritional diets. Keeping track helps to determine if adjustments made to the diet are sufficient to achieve optimal nutrient amounts. After making the adjustments a food intake tracker will help to determine if more adjustments need made later or if I am on the right track. A food diary is an excellent way to track food intakes and calorie intakes. I input my food intakes from Monday to Wednesday and compared them with a previous intake analysis from six weeks ago. The new analysis was encouraging, my nutritional intakes improved drastically especially in the area of protein which was a previous struggle. My vegetable intake has increased to a good level; my whole grain intake has increased to a good level, and my protein intake increased. The new analysis did still show a need for improvement in dairy and fruit. My weekly intake of dairy and fruit has improved however, my daily intakes are still lacking. I need to work to find alternates methods of receiving adequate dairy intakes such as supplements, purchasing soymilk, or yogurts. I also need to continue to work at including fruit in my daily diet, I can grab an apple or banana with my breakfast bar I take to work with me. I purchased kiwi for a snack I can slice one...

...Introduction Food Intake I was born to a father with the history of Diabetic mellitus and on my mother’s side; there is a history of High Blood Pressure. Although my father is not diabetic, my mother has been diagnosed with blood pressure. Blood pressure has been a steady disease in my household which has affected four out my five uncles. In 2010, after a seven year long battle with infertility, I was diagnosed with High Blood Pressure which I was given medication for and shortly thereafter, I had a son after my aggressive treatment. Ever since, I have always link most diseases with food intake and I strongly believe that my nutrition and my health work hand in hand. According to Grodner, Roth &Walkingshaw (2012), “The presence in the American diet of too much fat is directly related to several chronic diseases such as CAD and certain types of cancer. High-fat diets are indirectly related to type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension” (p.110). In order for me to remain in good health and to eliminate my disease, my daily food intake calorie should go to 2200 meal plan which includes breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner according to the super tracker web site . The purpose of this paper is to teach me how to eat healthy and to accomplish my goal of maintaining a healthy eating habit which includes an excellent food intake . Analyzing the First Two Weeks Being a foreigner, I have always thought that I eat healthy and having gone the to the doctors for...
