RDA - answer Recommended Dietary Allowance (97% of the population)
AL - answer adequate intake (used if scientific data to determine EAR and RDA are insufficient)
UL - answer Tolerable Upper Intake Level (highest amount before toxicity)
EAR - answer Estimated Average Requirement (50% for the same gender and age)
AMDR - answer Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range
- Carb: 45-65%
- fat: 20-35%
- protein: 10-35%
EER - answer Estimated Energy Requirement (age, gender, height, weight, and actively level)
naive view vs accurate view - answer - native: only safety and danger food
- accurate: toxicity, marginal, safety (DRI recommended), marginal, deficiency
My plate food groups (5) - answer fruits, vegetables, grains, protein, dairy
___% of your diet come from added fats and sugar - answer 13
original vs new nutrition label - answer kcal are biggest, updated serving sizes, updated daily values,

, - kcal/ kcal from fat
- DV total fat, cholesterol, sodium, total carb, protein
- vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D, potassium , added sugar calcium, iron
calculating total energy - answer - amount of fat (g) *9 kcal/ g fat
- amount of carb *4 kcal/g carb
- amount of protein (g) *4 kcal/g protein
- total energy= total protein + total fat + total carb
Signal that prompt us to eat: - answer - nerve receptors in the small intestine and stomach
- blood glucose level release insulin and glucagon
- hypothalamus region of the brain receives these signal
- reward mechanisms
Satiety level with different food - answer protein: highest satiety
carb: lower satiety
bulky food: satiety
solid > liquid food
Digestion in the month - answer bolus (food mass)--> swallowed (epiglottis)--> esophagus (esophageal
sphincter)
Digestion in the stomach - answer Chyme (food and gastric juices) --> mucus layer protect the stomach
lining from the acid in the gastric juices---> gastrin (hormone that increase gastric moment) --> pyloric
sphincter ( between the stomach and small intestine that allow chyme through and prevent backflow)
peristalsis and segmentation - answer The two types of movements of food through the digestive
system
