Answer to Question 1

 It is difficult to accurately assess her nutrition history for specific calorie and protein intakes.
 It is clear, though, from her history that she is having difficulty eating.
 Her 24-hour recall indicates intake of approximately 599 kcal and 6.6 g of protein.
 Her intake of Pepsi, an empty-calorie beverage, provided almost 60 of her kilocalories.
 No, she is not consuming adequate amountsonly about 33 of her calorie needs and 11 of her protein requirements.

Answer to Question 2

Using Harris Benedict:
REE = 655.1 + 9.6 W (kg) + 1.9 S (cm) - 4.7 A (yrs)
REE = 655.1 + 9.6 x 50 kg + 1.9 x 157.48 cm - 4.7 x 38 yrs
REE = 1246.9  1300 kcal
TEE = 1246.9 x 1.2 (PA) x 1.3 (SF) = 1945.2  1950 kcal; range of 1900-2000 kcal/day

OR use 30-35 kcal/kg American Chest Physician's nomogram
50 x 30 = 1500 kcal ; 50 x 35 = 1750 kcal

EPR = (1.2-1.5 g/kg) = 1.2-1.5  50 = 60-75 g pro/d

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

The human body's pharmacokinetics are quite varied. Our hair holds onto drugs longer than our urine, blood, or saliva. For example, alcohol can be detected in the hair for up to 90 days after it was consumed. The same is true for marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, heroin, methamphetamine, and nicotine.
