Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 6 page paper answering 16 questions about the nutritional content of food consumed over the course of a single day and tracked at MyPyramid Tracker online. The MyPyramid Tracker site has the ability to eliminate all excuses for those who claim they have no time to "eat right" or to cook meals beginning with raw ingredients. The site illustrates that fast food and convenience foods can be incorporated into healthy lifestyles with only minimum alterations. Healthy eating can be fast and easy as well as good-tasting.

Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
Using the MyPyramid Tracker site makes nutritional accountability virtually painless. It is highly effective in highlighting those areas that need to be either increased or
decreased, making common diet deficiencies and excesses painfully clear. Consistent use of the site soon would result in reductions in intake of the foods that are so commonly picked
up without thought but are so bad for us on a regular basis, leaving fast-food drive-through lanes much less crowded and slow-moving. Questions a. How many grams of fat can you
consume in a day and not exceed 30 percent of your calories from fat? As calories required in a day depends on the
individual, his level of average activity and goals for the short-term future (i.e., weight loss, weight maintenance, building muscle), there is no standard value for daily consumption of fat as
there is for vitamins, minerals, protein and other dietary components. For my specific situation, I can consume 28.2 grams of fat a day before exceeding gaining 30 percent of
my total calories from fat. During the latest recording day I far exceeded this figure, in fact by more than a factor of
two. My percentage of calories from fat during the most recent recording period was 57.3, more than twice that recommended. b. How many grams of saturated fat can you consume
in a day and not exceed 10 percent of calories from saturated fat? Based on the factors identified and discussed above, I can
consume up to 2.68 grams of saturated fat in a day without gaining more than 10 percent of total calories from saturated fat. On the last recording day I
