Sue is a 44-year-old British woman who recently moved to the United States. She smokes half a pack of cigarettes a day. She is 64 inches tall, weighs 85 pounds, and has a family history of heart disease. Her diet is high in protein, mostly from beef and chicken. She dislikes most vegetables except corn and potatoes. She eats fruit only occasionally and often skips breakfast. After taking a nutrition class at a local community college, Sue is concerned that her diet may be deficient in folate and vitamin C. When she looks at the Nutrition Facts for some foods in her pantry, this is what she finds: - Instant Breakfast Essentials™ powder, packet: 50% DV vitamin C, 25% DV folate - Quaker Oatmeal drink mix, packet: 10% DV vitamin C, 90% DV folate - Raisin Bran cereal: 0% DV vitamin C, 25% DV folate - Toasted Quaker Oatmeal, cup: 10% DV vitamin C, 50% DV folate Sue decides to exchange each of the above foods for folate. She wants to calculate the amount of folate in micrograms. She also learned that 60 milligrams provides 100% of the Daily Value (DV) for vitamin C. She wants to calculate the current amount of vitamin C in her diet and which food group likely provides the highest amount of folate. Enter data to calculate the folate intake.
