Eat Like A Woman – Staness Jonekose (1)

Food and Nutrition Board. Protein According to the Institute of Medicine, 0.36 grams of protein per pound of body weight is used to determine protein RDAs. Physically active adults (female and male) require 0.64 to 0.91 grams of protein per pound of body weight each day. Most women don’t get enough protein.

Data show that 7.7 percent of adolescent females and about 8 percent of older adult women aren’t getting the minimum recommended amount of protein. Fat Consume less than 10 percent of calories from saturated fats, and replace solid fats with oils when possible. Eat fewer than 300 milligrams of dietary cholesterol per day.

Carbohydrates A woman’s individualized carbohydrate needs are based on her recommended calorie requirements, weight-management goals and physical activity level. You will note that the carbohydrate acceptable macronutrient distribution range listed in the RDA chart is 5 percent higher than the recommended intake in the Eat Like a Woman Food Pyramid. This 5 percent is not going to alter your results toward eating like a woman, but I have found that placing your focus on fewer carbs encourages a slightly higher intake of healthy proteins (plant, fish and animal).

Women are designed to hold carbs and fat for survival, but today our modern lifestyle is less active and food is abundant. A slightly lower intake of carbohydrates can help you maintain a healthy weight. Unless you are an athlete or extremely active, eating like a woman is about balance: healthy protein combined with healthy carbs and healthy fats. Since carbs are an athlete’s primary source of energy during workouts, active women need more carbs than women who are sedentary.

Women athletes may require 60 to 70 percent of their calories from carbs per day— this is equivalent to 360 to 420 grams of carbs for a 2,400-calorie meal plan.
