Dietary Analysis (From Wellness textbook page 218)

STEP 1: You have already written down and done preliminary analysis on your diet for two typical days. You should have your journal sheets and the nutritional computer analysis printouts for your two days. Remember accuracy of the assessment depends on: how typical the diet that you wrote down is for you, how thorough you recorded your food and drink intake, and how accurately you recorded and calculated portion sizes. 

STEP 2: Now you will be using that information to further analyze the percent composition of macronutrients in your dietary record. For this part just chose one of the computer analysis for your dietary intake. Chose the one you believe to be most accurate in representing your average daily intake.

Carbohydrates: (55%  - 60%)                  

__________g of carbohydrates x 4 kcal/g = 
____________kcals carbohydrates 
÷  
____________total kcals/day 
x100 = 
____________% of diet from carbohydrates 

Total Fat: (< 30%)
__________g of fat x 9 kcal/g = 
____________kcals fat 
      	 ÷ 
___________total kcals/day 
 	x100 = 
____________% of diet from fatProtein: (12% - 15%)

__________g of protein x 4 kcal/g = 
____________kcals protein

___________total kcals/day 
 	x100 = 
____________% of diet from protein

Saturated Fat (S fat):  (< 10%)
_________g of S fat x 9 kcal/g = 
___________kcals S fat 
        	 ÷ 
____________total kcals/day
	X100 =
___________% of diet from S fat

Polyunsaturated Fat (PS fat): 
_________g of PS fat x 9 kcal/g =
