Question Workspace
Maria is a 28-year-old woman who gave birth 7 months ago. As a
lacto-ovo vegetarian (who eats eggs and dairy, but not meat, fish,
or poultry), Maria is concerned about her nutritional needs while
lactating (breastfeeding). She is unsure whether her nutritional
requirements will stay the same or increase during her lactation
state and wants to educate herself so that her food choices will be
beneficial to both her and her baby.
For this activity, you will answer the questions using Maria's
3-Day Food Intake Average reports for Nonpregnant,
Vegetarian and Lactating 7+ months, Vegetarian.
7. Linoleic acid and linolenic acid are essential fatty acids
that are needed daily. During Maria's nonpregnant state, her
linoleic acid intake was 15.175 g and her linolenic acid intake was
1.176 g. During Maria's lactation state, her linoleic acid intake
was 14.53 g and her linolenic acid intake was 1.125 g. True or
False: Maria met or exceeded her need for all of these essential
nutrients during both her nonpregnant and lactating states.
8. The MyPlate Analysis for Maria in her Nonpregnant state and
in her Lactating 7+ months state show her goal for fruits and dairy
as the same in both states. According to the reports, what are her
goals for fruit and dairy intake?
