To ensure the adequate intake of energy and nutrients and reduce the risk of chronic diseases, AMDR is 45-65% of daily total energy from carbohydrates, 20-35% of daily total energy from fat, and 10-35% of daily total energy from protein.

For a person who is following a 2,500 Calories per day diet, answer the following items below. A. Determine the recommended number of Calories for each macronutrient to be consumed using the AMDR as your guideline. Show your work. a) Carbohydrate: 45-65 percent of total energy intake, for calories it is 900-1300 b) Protein: 10-35 percent of total energy intake and 200-700 for calories c) Fats: 20-35 percent of total energy intake and 400-700 for calories
