Question

A personal trainer is advising a client on caloric distribution. Which of the following falls within the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) for protein?

Select one:
a. 0.6
b. 0.4
c. 0.3
d. 0.5

Answer 1

0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The range accepted for protein within Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) is 10% to 35% of the calories for adults.

thus, it should not exceed 35% or 0.35

hence, considering the above range, the best matched option is c) 0.3 as it fits between the range of 0.1 to 0.35 and rest all other options are greater than the prescribed range.
