Health Medical Homework Help

I’m working on a nutritional sciences question and need an explanation to help me learn.

Please submit Meal Planning for Carbohydrates Assignment here.

Part A 

Please respond to the following questions in complete sentences and paragraphs. Do not include the questions verbatim and answer each independently (in other words there are 4 distinct responses I am looking for).  Work on further developing your academic writing skills.  This section should be at least 200 words.  References are required.

• What is meant by the AMDR, and what is this range for carbohydrates (adults only)?
• How do slow releasing carbohydrates and fast releasing play a role in health, including blood glucose management?
• What is one potential negative health consequence from carbohydrate intake?
• What is one potential positive health impact from carbohydrate intake?

Part B 

Here is a sample one-day menu for Mr. Brown. His doctor just told him to cut down on added sugars in addition to increasing his fiber intake. He hopes to meet with a dietitian next week, but in the meantime needs some help making these changes. List five suggestions for Mr. Brown’s diet. Make sure to provide only changes that address the meal planning goals mentioned above. Tell him which food(s) you would have him omit and how you would replace these items. You may also change portion sizes. Highlight (yellow only, please) or bold the item you are changing. Then write the change next to that. You may make more than five changes, but if you do so, you will only receive full credit when all changes correctly match the assigned directions.
