The person who is mentioned in the question is a 23 year old male who has a sedentary lifestyle and weighs 250 pounds.
00:09
So the daily energy values which he intakes is given and the recommended values are also given.
00:19
In the first part of the question, we are going to calculate how many grams of proteins he has consumed per kg body weight.
00:28
So proteins are the macronutrients which are made up of amino acids and are required for repair of cells.
00:35
And they are also important constituent of bones, skin etc.
00:44
So weight in pounds is given as 250.
00:49
So you have to convert this weight into kgs.
00:52
So 1 kg is equal to 2 .2 pounds.
00:57
So in order to convert into kg you have to divide 250 by 2 .2 which is equal to 113 .63 kgs.
01:06
So from the table you can find that the protein intake is 40 grams.
01:12
So we need to calculate per kg.
01:15
So that will be 113 .63 divided by 40, which is equal to 2 .84 grams per kg.
01:27
The protein value has consumed is 2 .84 grams per kg.
01:30
In the second part of the question, we are going to select the options that should be followed to change his diet so that we can fulfill the recommended range of protein intake.
01:42
So, the recommended range is around 91 grams of protein while the person is consuming only 40 grams of protein.
01:50
So the intake value is 40 grams while the recommended value is 91 grams.
01:53
So how to increase the protein intake value to 91 grams through changing his diet? so option a which says eat more fruits and vegetables is a wrong option because fruits and vegetables only certain fruits and vegetables are rich in proteins.
02:08
While if you take meat, meat is rich in proteins.
02:14
Meat like chicken, steak, etc are highly rich in protein.
02:21
So option a is a wrong option.
02:23
Coming to option d, which says you have to substitute the non -fat milk with whole milk.
02:31
It's the wrong option because both the milk have same amount of protein while non -fat milk has lesser fat content.
02:40
So it is healthier.
02:41
So option d is a wrong option.
02:42
Option h which says the protein intake is in the recommended range.
02:47
Is a wrong option because the recommended range is 91 grams while the person is consuming only 40 grams.
02:56
So option h is a wrong option.
02:59
Option b which says adding walnuts and almonds is a correct option because dry fruits are rich in proteins...
