A dietician asks a patient about the food that the patient eats and makes the table below to summarize the results. Macromolecule
Suggested percentage of diet
Actual percentage of diet
Carbohydrates45–65%70%
Lipids20–35%5%
Proteins10–35%25%

Based on the table, what advice do you think that the dietician will give the patient?
The patient should increase the amount of lean meats (proteins) and decrease the amount of oils in his or her diet.
The patient should decrease the amount of lean meats (proteins) and increase the amount of oils in his or her diet.
The patient should decrease the amount of rice and pasta and increase the amount of oils in his or her diet.
The patient should decrease the amount of rice and pasta and increase the amount of lean meats (proteins) in his or her diet.

C - The patient should decrease the amount of rice and pasta and increase the amount of oils in his or her diet.

Explanation:

- A is wrong because from the given data, the individual's intake of proteins is within the range, so nothing really needs to change about that. The lipid intake is very low, so that would actually need to be increased as well.

- B is wrong because the patient's intake of protein shouldn't be decreased. The second half of the advice is correct though, as the lipid intake needs to be increased.

- D is wrong because it doesn't reference the need to increase lipid intake. The first half of the advice is correct though.

So, C is correct, as it references both carbohydrates and lipids, which are the 2 macro molecules that the individual clearly needs to control. C correctly advises to increase lipid consumption and decrease carbohydrate consumption.

Hope that helped : )
