Calculate Ms. Watson's energy and protein requirements
What will be an ideal response?
Energy Requirements:
Mifflin-St. Jeor:
REE = 10 x W (kg) + 6.25 x H (cm) - 5 x A (yrs) - 161
REE = 10 x 74.1 kg + 6.25 x 162.56 - 5 x 61 - 161
REE = 1291 ≈ 1300 kcal/day
TEE = 1582 x 1.2 (PA) x 1.3 (SF) = 2014 ≈ 2000 kcal/day or 1900-2100 kcal/day
Protein Requirements:
1.2-1.5 g/kg x 74.1 = 89-111 grams
