John eats a lot of fatty foods, but he is an athlete and he just eats a lot of everything. his daily kilocalorie intake is close to 4,500 kilocalories. he is not really watching his weight because it has stayed the same for the last several years. however, he wants to make sure his fat consumption stays within the healthy range, as he has seen so many advertisements for "healthy", low-fat products on tv. calculate how many grams of fat john could consume while staying within the amdr.

Respuesta :

AMDR refers to Acceptable Macro-nutrients Distribution Range. This is a parameter, which helps to determine what proportion of the macronutrients should a person consume, in order to remain healthy.

In this case, John is an athlete and consumes a lot of fats. The proportion of fats in diet should be 20-35% for an average adult. As he is an athlete, he can take around 100-175 grams of fats everyday.

So, the correct answer is 100-175 grams per day.
