  10. Terms • Calories(in fact kilocalories)/kilojoules. • Measures of available energy content of food. 1 Kcal = 4.2 K j • Daily calorie needs calculated from BMR (basal metabolic rate) • RDA Recommended Daily Allowance (for things that aren’t too good for you) • DRV Dietary reference values estimates of amounts of each food group needed by different groups of people

  11. DRVs • RNI Reference Nutrient Intakes – used for proteins vitamins and minerals to show how much most people need. • EAR Estimated average requirement is used most for energy • LRNIs Lower Reference Nutrient intakes below which are certainly not enough for most people. • Table of RNIs for vitamins and minerals uploaded to blackboard.

Health plan related work • Dietary analysis • Keep a dietary record for three days • Record all food you consume including snacks • Record calories and other nutrition information directly from packet • Or weigh food consumed and try to list ingredients and proportions in home prepared meals. • Try to avoid eating out as this makes it more difficult. • Look up calories/kilojoules for foods on the internet, where you don’t have information. • Remember to take into account weight and calories. • With this information we will proceed in class. • Record sheet on blackboard – print out at least 3

  14. Example calculation • Breakfast 100g granola (25g = 125 Kc) • 50g (1/2 serving) milk semi-skimmed (1 serving 150 Kc) • 1 banana (105 calories) • Granola = 125 x 4 = 500Kc • Milk = 150/2 = 75 Kc • Banana = 105 • Total = 680Kcalories
