A member asked:
Doctors, how much-- protein, carbs, cholesterol, and fat should be in an average womans diet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
1.0 gm protein/kg: The only essential need is for protein of about 1.0 gm for each kg of weight. There is no need to take cholesterol and saturated fats. A mixed diet of fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts and low fat milk products will be sufficient. To maintain healthy weight, control the caloric intake and exercise 30 minute/day.
