Question 2

Three people each weigh 160 lbs. One of them is very active and is in energy balance at 3,000 kcal/day, a second one is sedentary and consumes 2,000 kcal/day, and a third is dieting and ingests only 1,000 kcal/day. If their protein intakes all met the RDA, would each also meet the protein AMDR?

Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

The RDA for a 160-lb. adult is 58 g. A protein intake of 58 g/day would represent 7.7 of kcal for a 3,000-kcal diet, 11.6 for a 2,000-kcal diet, and 23.2 for a 1,000-kcal diet. So, assuming each person only just met the RDA, the one consuming 3,000 kcal/day would not meet his/her AMDR (10-35).
