Are you meeting your needs for minerals?
Analyze the adequacy of your mineral intake using data from your Intake vs. Goal summary.
Which minerals are you consuming in the right amounts? List these. These are the ones show as
100% or more of the DRI on your Intake vs. Goals summary. Which minerals did you consume in
amounts below the DRI? List these. These are shown as less than 100% of the DRI on your Intake
vs. Goals summary. Did you consume less than 75% of the DRI for any mineral? If yes, list these,
and explain possible health consequences. Then give very specific suggestions for how you can
consume more of these minerals from foods and beverages. What is your evaluation of your
sodium intake? Include health benefits if you meet or are close to the DRI for sodium, and health
consequences if you are over the UL for sodium (the UL for sodium is 2300 mg/day). Do you
think you need to adjust your intake of sodium or any other mineral? Explain. If yes, also give
very specific suggestions for how you can achieve this through changes to the types and/or amounts of
foods and beverages you consume.
a). Are you currently taking nutrition supplements? List all of the nutrition
supplements you take, and give the reason(s) you take them. If you don’t take supplements,
say so, and explain why you do not take them.

 

b). Do you think you need any nutrition supplements? Explain, and refer to data from
your printouts to back up your answer. If you are currently taking nutrition supplements,
include whether or not you think you need to continue to take these supplements; explain, and
refer to data from your printouts to back up your answer.
