Jared realizes that different nutrition standards might be used to assess different aspects of a diet. Now he wants to assess the portion of energy coming from fat in his favorite fast-food meal. Use the values in the Nutrition Facts panel from the Build A Meal NutriTool and information provided in your textbook to answer the questions. Enter these foods into the Build A Meal NutriTool and answer the following question. What is the percent of total kilocalories coming from fat in this meal? (Round to the nearest whole number.)
26% Great job! You have successfully calculated the percent of kilocalories from fat. The % Daily Value on a Nutrition Facts panel represents the portion of a nutrient consumed in one serving of the food or meal compared with the total amount needed in one day. The % Daily Value for fat is 65 grams, which is calculated based on a 2000 kcal a day diet. Jared's favorite fast-food meal provides 30% of 65 grams, or about 20 grams.

Which of the following changes to Jared's favorite fast-food meal would lead to a meal that includes all food groups and abides by the MyPlate standard?

For this question, you are going to indicate which nutrients change significantly after making changes to Jared's meal.

Did the portion or percent of kilocalories coming from fat in Jared's favorite fast-food meal meet the AMDR recommendations for fat?
Yes, the AMDR for fat is 20-35% of total kilocalories. The AMDR standard can be used with any kilocalories level, so it can be used to assess a meal or a person's dietary intake that is significantly different than 2000 kcal. Once the percent of kilocalories coming from a macronutrient has been calculated, it can be compared directly to the AMDR. The AMDR is the range of macronutrient portions in a diet that are associated with reduced risk for chronic diseases while providing essential nutrients like vitamins and minerals. Being able to calculate the percent of kilocalories in a meal or a total day's food intake allows a more individualized assessment of macronutrient proportions.
