Skill Areas: General Nutrition

Assignment Title: Case Study: Evaluation of Diet and Recommendations for Improvement

What I Learned: In this assignment I learned how to analyze someone’s diet and dietary patterns, using mypyramid.gov and calculating their BMI, and estimated energy expenditure in relation to their average daily energy intake. After analyzing their dietary patterns, I learned how to make a nutrition diagnosis and intervention to help them to be closer to the recommended dietary guidelines.

Reflection to assignment: This assignment helped me to compare someone’s dietary intake to their expenditure, and know whether or not they are reaching the recommended dietary guidelines.

Relevance to the profession: In the Nutritional and Food Science Profession, it is important to be able to analyze the dietary patterns of clients. This is important in the clinical setting, in serving the community, as well as in schools.
