Vegan protein recommendation
A 19-year old female vegan requires 58 grams of protein per day. Create a vegan meal (breakfast, lunch, or dinner) that provides one-third of her protein recommendation. Select the Track Diet tab, click the Select the Date box, and choose a day that doesn’t have any dietary intake entered (do not alter one of your recording days). Enter the foods in your meal; after all foods are entered, select the Reports tab and then select the Intake Spreadsheet report. Enter the same date that you used to create the vegan meal in the Start Date and End Date boxes. Lastly, scroll down to the protein column to view the results. How successful were you in achieving protein adequacy? If the meal fell short of the goal, what vegan foods can you change or add to the meal to more closely match this person’s protein need?
