Putting it into Practice
Write a brief chart note with the findings from the following activity: Calculate the estimated average calorie intake of a 3-day food record, including average intake of grams of carbohydrates, protein, and fat.
Putting It Into Practice Activity—Chapter 7
The objective of this activity is to give the reader practice with the following: • Familiarization with food records • Assigning the appropriate food group(s) to each food item
• Understanding the process of converting food groups into grams of carbohydrate, protein, and calories
• Understanding how the total nutrient intake is determined.
Calculating the Average Estimated Calorie and Macronutrient Intake Step 1: Gather the following from the pages that follow this instruction page: 1. Food Groups and Macronutrient Values 2. Food/Beverage Intake Record EXAMPLE
a. The Food/Beverage Intake Record EXAMPLE shows all the food offered and the percentage of each food item consumed.
3. Food Group Analysis EXAMPLE a. This is a completed food group analysis for the Food Record EXAMPLE.
4. Calculating Nutrient Intake EXAMPLE a. This is a completed Calculating Nutrient Intake for the Food Record EXAMPLE. 5. Food Group Analysis for Days 1 – 3
a. These worksheets include the menus for three days and the percentages consumed for each menu item that have already been entered into the nutrient analysis form for the reader’s convenience.
6. Calculating Nutrient Intake Days 1- 3 7. Calculating Average Nutrient Intake
Follow the instructions to complete the Putting It Into Practice Activity:
Step 1: Review the Food Record EXAMPLE to see the pattern of documentation of one day’s complete intake.
Step 2: Review the Food Group Analysis EXAMPLE to see the how food groups were assigned to the menu items and how the amount eaten of the food groups in Column D changes based on the percentages of items consumed.
Step 3: Refer to Calculating Nutrient Intake EXAMPLE to view the how the total for each food group is used to determine grams of CHO, PRO, and FAT, and total calories consumed.
Step 4: Starting with Food Group Analysis Day 1, carefully follow the directions at the top of the page. Columns A and B have been completed for the reader’s convenience. Refer to Food Groups and Macronutrient Values for assistance as needed with food group assignments.
