Document Summary
Chapter 2 dris cont": require intake distribution, take the distribution & the median intake, we then apply the. Ear cut-point: proportion whose intake less than the ear => not meet its requirement, refer to the graph above, there are 90% of the population. If intake > ai -> intake ok ai is good personal target (rda) If intake < ai -> intake may or may not be ok. Consumption = expansion: gain -> positive energy balance. Consumption > expansion: loss -> negative energy balance. Acceptable macronutrient distribution ranges (amdr: expressed as % of total kcalories, carbs. > 45~65: fat -> 20~35, essential fat is required, undesirable fat -> as low as possible, saturated. < 7% kcal (scientific literature: trans. < 1% kcal or none at all. The bacteria in the lumen of the stomach would synthesize the trans fat with the intake of dairy products: protein -> 10 ~ 35, example:
