Food Analysis--Food Intake Assessment

hi!

here is another method to analyse my diet, more precise and accurate:

FOOD INTAKE ASSESSMENT



















the image below is an analysis of one day of my food. Oh no! it shows that i have far exceeded almost all of the daily requirements! and i do not have enough calcium intake! looks like i need to drink more milk and cut down on the rest. =( Too much sodium, fats, dietary fibre, carbohydrates and proteins.













here is a graph plotted againt the RDDAs:












oh no! as i have just learnt about saturated fats being "bad fats", this graph is just too scary to look at! i am actually consuming up to 469% of the daily recommended amount! way above and way too unhealthy! like i said, i have always thought that saturted fats were good fats! sigh, better wacth my diet!











these percentages gives me a rough estimation on how much of these nutrients i need to consume more or watch and eat in moderation. i definitely need to cut down on the fats! 3% may seem like a small numder, but when accumulated, it is really unhealthy! protein consumption is just right, but i have to be extra careful as to not go out of the range. i need more carbohydrates in oder to have enough energy for daily activities.
