minerals, fiber, protein, etc.) you consume that fall less than your goals. List food sources for each of those nutrients. Do you have any concerns about the low levels of these nutrients in your diet? Why or why not? - The nutrients that ended up falling short for me were carbohydrates (and the specific carbohydrate- dietary fiber), water, certain vitamins such as Thiamin and Niacin, calcium, Vitamin D, and the essential fatty acids Linoleic and Linolenic acid. I do have concerns about the low levels of these nutrients in my diet because I want to make sure I am getting all the necessary averages. However, I know even if I am not meeting all the goals for nutrients I know I eat well. The food sources for carbohydrates would be the pesto pasta and the penne pasta meal I had for dinner on 4/29. For certain vitamins such as thiamin and niacin the food sources would be meat products like pork chops, fish such as salmon, brown rice, all of which I did not include in those 3 days of eating and usually don't. Essential fatty acids like Linoleic and Linolenic are certain oils like vegetable oils or poultry products. Calcium would be plant sources such as broccoli or cucumber, milk, cheese, bread, boiled eggs, or nuts such as almonds. Vitamin D would be eggs, fatty fish, or milk. 5. List the nutrients you consume in excess of/over your goals. State whether your excess consumption is of any health concern, i.e. does it exceed the tolerable upper intake level or other nutritional guidelines and/or contribute to your risk of disease? List the major food sources in your diet for these nutrients. - The nutrients that I consumed excess of was protein, fat (total), saturated fat, vitamin C, Vitamin K, and Sodium. Yes, the fat and saturated fat is a concern for me when looking at health concerns just because I know how dangerous excess fat can be over time. So, yes it does contribute to the risk of certain diseases and exceeds the tolerable upper intake level. However, I am not seriously concerned as I know other people go even higher than I did during those 3 days I recorded. The major food sources in my diet

Question
Answer numbers 7 and 8 in complete sentences and paragraphs. Numbers 1-6 are provided if needed.
7. Write at least one PES statement about your assessment of your own diet. You may write several but each one should be only about one nutrient. Please be sure to watch the lecture on the Nutrition Care Process, Chapter 3, for instructions on how to write your PES statement.
8. Based on your diet assessment and PES statement(s) above, discuss a possible intervention for yourself to improve your nutrition status. State why you want to make these changes and how you plan to accomplish this intervention (e.g. name specific foods that you would increase or decrease consumption, behavioral changes, etc.)
Transcribed Image Text:1. What are some advantages of using a 3-day
Food Record to assess dietary intake? -
Some advantages of using a 3-day Food Record to
assess dietary intake are
keeping track of your food intake and values such
as protein, making sure you are getting the daily
required nutrients, the reassurance you are hitting
your nutritional goals, and your data will be much
more accurate compared to other methods of
tracking your diet.
2. What are some assumptions or limitations of
using a 3-day Food Record to assess dietary
intake?
Some limitations to using a 3-day food record to
assess dietary intake could be the danger of
calorie counting and the mental strain it puts on
the person who is calorie counting, looking at your
results and not seeing the results you may have
wanted, and bias during recording to see the
results you may want to see.
3. Do you think food records are reliable tools for
learning about your dietary intake? Why or why
not?
- Yes and no. I think they are a great indicator from
a dietary and nutritional
standpoint but when you look at the strain on
mental health of those who calorie count it is not
the best thing to do. From the yes standpoint, I
think it is a great indicator if you are trying to meet
daily goals for intake. If you want to know that
information and want to make sure you are eating
not just enough food, but enough of the daily
average I think it is a great thing to do. From the
no standpoint, I think by counting calories and
tracking what you eat every day can lead to
serious mental issues. If you don't hit a certain
goal or go over a DRI you may feel bad about your
body and health and feel like you need to fix it and
it will all be better. This is where recording your
daily intake can cause a serious and dangerous
problem with people, however some people have
figured out how it can work for them.
Transcribed Image Text:4. List all the nutrients (specific vitamins,
minerals, fiber, protein, etc.) you consume that fall
less than your goals. List food sources for each of
those nutrients. Do you have any concerns about
the low levels of these nutrients in your diet? Why
or why not?
- The nutrients that ended up falling short for me
were carbohydrates (and the specific
carbohydrate- dietary fiber), water, certain
vitamins such as Thiamin and Niacin, calcium,
Vitamin D, and the essential fatty acids Linoleic
and Linolenic acid. I do have concerns about the
low levels of these nutrients in my diet because I
want to make sure I am getting all the necessary
averages. However, I know even if I am not
meeting all the goals for nutrients I know I eat well.
The food sources for carbohydrates would be the
pesto pasta and the penne pasta meal I had for
dinner on 4/29. For certain vitamins such as
thiamin and niacin the food sources would be
meat products like pork chops, fish such as
salmon, brown rice, all of which I did not include in
those 3 days of eating and usually don't.
Essential fatty acids like Linoleic and Linolenic are
certain oils like vegetable oils or poultry products.
Calcium would be plant sources such as broccoli
or cucumber, milk, cheese, bread, boiled eggs, or
nuts such as almonds. Vitamin D would be eggs,
fatty fish, or milk.
5. List the nutrients you consume in excess of/over
your goals. State whether your excess
consumption is of any health concern, i.e. does it
exceed the tolerable upper intake level or other
nutritional guidelines and/or contribute to your
risk of disease? List the major food sources in
your diet for these nutrients.
- The nutrients that I consumed excess of was
protein, fat (total), saturated fat, vitamin C,
Vitamin K, and Sodium. Yes, the fat and saturated
fat is a concern for me when looking at health
concerns just because I know how dangerous
excess fat can be over time. So, yes it does
contribute to the risk of certain diseases and
exceeds the tolerable upper intake level. However,
I am not seriously concerned as I know other
people go even higher than I did during those 3
days I recorded. The major food sources in my diet
for these nutrients include Chipotle chicken, the
Starbucks bacon & gouda sandwich, the
cinnamon toaster sticks, and the cinnamon
waffles.
6. Identify one nutrient that you are most
interested in or concerned about based on your
diet analysis. why is this nutrient of interest to
you? What effect do you think this nutrient might
have on your health? What dietary changes could
you make to correct or improve this nutrient in
your diet?
-I am most interested/concerned in dietary fiber
(specific carbohydrate). I am both interested and
concerned because I did not meet the
recommendation for it but at the same time I want
to learn more about it and what foods are rich in
dietary fiber. The effect this nutrient would have
on my health would be a good one. I feel as if I
include more high/dietary fibers in my everyday or
weekly diet it would reap certain benefits such as
maintaining a healthy weight, lowering my risk of
diabetes, heart diseases, and some types of
cancer. To include more dietary fiber in my diet I
could eat more oats, beans, apples, citrus fruits,
carrots, vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain
products.
