Write a paper of at least 750 words that addresses the following points about your 3-day food intake:

• Recorded intake of protein
• • Which foods in your recorded daily intake provide protein?
  • Review how your recorded protein intake compares with the recommendations of the dietary reference intake. If your recorded protein intake was too high or too low, which foods might you add or remove to achieve your goal and keep other nutrients in balance?
  • Is the protein in each food you ate complete or incomplete, combining to become complementary? Why is this important?
  • How much of your daily recommended protein intake did you achieve? If your macronutrient intake is insufficient or excessive, what might you do to bring it into the recommended range? Provide specific recommendations.
• Recorded intake of carbohydrates
• • Which foods in your recorded daily intake carbohydrates?
  • Review how your recorded carbohydrate intake compares with the recommendations of the dietary reference intake. If your recorded carbohydrate intake was too high or too low, which foods might you add or remove to achieve your goal and keep other nutrients in balance?
  • How much of your daily recommended carbohydrates intake did you achieve? If your macronutrient intake is insufficient or excessive, what might you do to bring it into the recommended range? Provide specific recommendations.

  Fiber intake ranges

  • Does your fiber total meet 100% of the recommendation for you as calculated at iProfile^®?
  • Does your diet meet the minimum number of servings of foods from each fiber-containing group? If not, which of the fiber-containing groups–fruits and vegetables–fell short of the recommended intake?
  • Which specific foods provide the most fiber in your meals? Which provide the least? Identify trends in your food choices that might affect your fiber intakes.
• Recorded intake of lipids
• Which foods in your recorded daily intake provide lipids?
• Review how your recorded and lipid intake compares with the recommendations of the dietary reference intake. If your recorded fat intake was too high or too low, which foods might you add or remove to achieve your goal and keep other nutrients in balance?
• How much of your daily recommended lipid intake did you achieve? If your macronutrient intake is insufficient or excessive, what might you do to bring it into the recommended range? Provide specific recommendations
• Dietary modifications
  • What changes might you make to increase the fiber in your diet?
  • How might insufficient or excessive amounts of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, or fiber contribute to health or illness? Provide examples.
  • What have you learned about your diet?
