Yesterday Kaiulani consumed 2100 kcalories worth of food that contained 60 g of protein. How did her protein intake compare with
Fed [463]

Answer:

Her protein intake is within the recommended range for protein.

Explanation:

Protein along with other macronutrients like carbohydrates and fats is an important part of our diet. It is made of amino acids and helps in muscle building, production of hormones and enzymes and maintaining the immune system. Although not the major source of calories, protein also contains four calories per gram.

According to US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), if a person has 2000 calorie diet they should consume at least 50 grams of protein which means at least 10% of calories should come from protein. The healthy range of calories from proteins is 12 to 20%. Kaiulani consumed 60 gm of protein in 2100 calories diet which means total 240 calories or 11.42% of total calories were obtained from protein. This number lies within the recommended range for protein.
