A dietician asks a patient about the food that the patient eats and makes the table below to summarize the results.MacromoleculeSuggested percentage of dietActual percentage of dietCarbohydrates45–65%70%Lipids20–35%5%Proteins10–35%25%Based on the table, what advice do you think that the dietician will give the patient?

Carbohydrates make up 70% of the patient’s diet, above the suggested 45–65%, so the dietician would recommend reducing foods such as rice and pasta. Lipids make up only 5%, below the suggested 20–35%, so increasing oils would help. Protein is 25%, which is already within its suggested range.
