SELF ANALYSIS SUMMARY AND NUTRITION INSIGHTS

The assignment analyzed the author's diet for seven days using My Fitness App, highlighting the importance of a balanced intake of macro nutrients (carbohydrates, protein, and fat). The evaluation showed that while carbohydrates and protein were consumed in adequate amounts, fat consumption was low. The author concluded that dietary changes are necessary to maintain good health, including introducing exercise and replacing saturated fats.

SELF ANALYSIS SUMMARY
Introduction
The nutrition information available through My Fitness App has been helpful in generating
the needed information. In order to have a healthy life, it is essential that the nutrient
supplements are taken in right order and the requisite level of macro nutrients and micro
nutrients forma part of daily intake. The evaluation done for a period of seven days is helping
in evaluating the consumption, pattern and the influence and impact of the foods consumed.
Discussion
The consideration of net calories consumed and the calculation done for the percentage of
macro nutrients present in the consumption of food is significant. It can be well observed that
the percentage of calories intake which is taking place from the protein being 30% is right on
target (Kirby, 2016; Taylor et al., 2001). As it falls between the range, it cannot be considered
low and as well it is not high.
The percentage of carbohydrates too is significant in my diet. Considering the weight which I
have of 160 Ibs, the 52% of the carbohydrate already present in the food consumed is a good
factor. With respect to the Fat consumption, the data reveals that the fat is not considered up
to optimum requisite levels and for this reason there are dietary changes are required in order
to keep up to the good health.

SELF ANALYSIS SUMMARY
The fat was considerably taken less. The reason attributed is that with the greater focus on
carbohydrates in my diet, my hunger was not spiking (Kirby, 2016; Taylor et al., 2001). The
recommended level for the macro nutrient is considerably low. The risk of health problems
cannot be clearly predicted. Although the data clearly reveals that my weight and lifestyle are
concern and there needs to be changes which would be needed to be done on the similar
fronts. In order to be more healthy I need to introduce a healthy routine of workout and
exercise (Kirby, 2016; Taylor et al., 2001). There are changes wherein the saturated fat has to
be replaced too in the diet.
The assignment was informative and I did gain greater insight into my diet. With the crucial
calculations, there was an enhanced way in which the entire lifestyle alteration and the
change in diet can take place. This would result I the success and a better health. The
information garnered is an enriching experience.
Recommendation & Conclusion
The evaluation done for the period encompassing seven days is helpful in evaluating the
consumption, pattern along with the influence. With the consideration in terms of the weight,
that of 160 Ibs, the 52% of the body having the carbohydrate already present in the food
consumed is a good factor. Even with respect to the Fat, the data reveals that the fat does not
equate to the requisite levels along with the essential dietary changes that are required to
upkeep the good health. In order that the healthy lifestyle is maintained, there is a need to
