PART 1: Background: There are lots of different recommendations for dietary intake. They come from government agencies, nutritional medical experts, and even celebrities (definitely not reliable resources). Many of these guidelines discuss some sort of recommendations for consumption of macronutrients (fats, proteins, and carbohydrates). Remember that for your response, this question is not about a diet like "keto" in general. It is about the macronutrients and their ratio eaten in the diet.

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words. Include all references in APA format, both in text and at the end.

Define macronutrients and their categories.

What are the recommended ratio (quantities and type) of each macronutrient?

What specific foods are included for each macronutrient category? Name at least three for each category

Compare/contrast a recommendation from two cited resources, one reputable resource and one from a blog or celebrity. Please give references in APA format (in text and at the end). Please include specific content from the blog and from the reputable resource and compare them in your post. .

How are they the same (reputable vs. blog)? How are they different?

What sorts of reasons are given for the benefits of the recommendations from each resource? Are these based on personal opinion or scientific facts?

Do they discuss the impact of macronutrients on various digestive organs? Why is this important?

  • Which provides reliable recommendations and why.
  • What happens when you rely on celebrity endorsements that pose an emotional tribe appeal?
