Hello again!
i have been really watching what i eat now, don't want to risk having those scary diseases when i am older.
Oh, i managed to compile all the RDDA (recommended daily dietary allowance) for some of the food groups! =)
for carbohydrates, the RDDA for teenage girls, as for my case, is 2150kcal.
for proteins, the RDDA for teenage girls is 66g per day.
i think this method of seeing whether you've been eating healthily may be a bit hard since we need to calculate the kcal or g of the stuff we eat, and mostly the food we eat do not only contain carbohydrates or proteins ONLY, hance making it harder. Oh well, but at least it serves as a guide for us.
Using this tool, i can see that my diet is kind of okay, but i really cant tell how much of the things i need is in them. So i actually prefer the food pyramid to this one. =) this tool is also used in the food intake assessment, and that way is a more accurate method.
