Nutrition Analysis Project 1

This project entails my busy diet schedule to see how bad my food intake was as I tried to do my

homework and work as a night shift worker.

1. My target recommendation of all nutrients My body requires?

a) Energy -1711(Kcal)

b) Proteins-7.9g

c) Carbohydrates-213.9 g

d) Fat- 57.0g

e) Fiber- 3.1g

f) Vitamins(A) -79pg

g) Vitamin (C)-10.3mg

h) Vitamin. (B12)-0.6pg

i) Potassium-489.6 mg

2. My diet compared to the recommendation from the chronometer? (Cronometer, 2023)

a. Energy -1711 within the target (Kcal)

b. Proteins-1.9g above the daily target

c. Carbohydrates- Under maximum threshold of 21.1 g

d. Fat- Under Maximum threshold of 16g

e. Fiber- Under by 3.1g

f. Vitamins(A) – Under by 621g

g. Vitamin (C)-under by 64.7mg

h. Vitamin. (B12) Under by 1.8 g

i. Potassium- under daily target 2,110.4 mg

3. Strategies in place to modify the diet to obtain the recommended diet.

On energy, I need to add a little grain to my diet; some toast might help me maintain my

target. My protein intake is above my target; therefore, less will make me be at the target. My

carbohydrate is low by 21.1g. By adding some toast to my diet, I will achieve the right target. Fat

is above the target; therefore, reducing my protein intake can return my fat intake to the daily

target (USDA, 2020). Vitamin intake is low on all three: A, B12, and C. I must eat food rich in

all three nutrients. Potassium is below target; therefore, I must incorporate bananas and greens

into my diet to attain my goal.

4. Three Smart Goals

a. My first goal is to keep track of my diet records even when busy with school and

work. It is possible through daily reminders from my phone notebook and meal

timetable.

b. I am seeking advice from a food specialist to increase my nutrition intake of

potassium, vitamins, and carbohydrates. A nutritionist can advise on foods rich in

vitamins and help with a proper diet strategy.

c. I hope to have a better health plan by week 14. I need a general nutrition intake at

least once daily, with the rest being snacks. I hope the plan works for me.
