    Study Notes

    Fruit Serving Sizes

    • Apple: 1 apple (3.25" diameter) = 1 cup sliced/chopped; 1/2 cup sliced/chopped for each 1/2 large (raw/cooked).
    • Applesauce: 1 cup = 1 snack container (4oz).
    • Banana: 1 small (less than 6") = 1/2 cup; 1 large (8"-9") = 1 cup.
    • Cantaloupe: 1 cup diced/balls = 1 medium wedge (1/8 of a medium melon).

    Protein Serving Sizes

    • Cooked Lean Meats: 1 ounce each for beef, pork, chicken, or turkey (without skin).
    • Seafood: 1 ounce cooked fish/shellfish or 1 small salmon (4-6 ounce-equivalents).
    • Eggs: 1 egg = 1 ounce-equivalent; 3 egg yolks = 1 ounce-equivalent.
    • Nuts and Seeds: 1/2 ounce (12 almonds or 24 pistachios) = 1 ounce-equivalent, also includes 1 Tbsp of nut butter.
    • Beans and Peas: 1/4 cup cooked beans/peas = 2 ounce-equivalents; includes soups like split pea and lentil.

    Essential Nutrients

    • Potassium: Most abundant intracellular cation; important for nerve/muscle function, muscle contraction, and regulated by kidneys. Normal serum levels: 3.5 to 5.3 mEq/L.
    • Calcium: Crucial for bone health, cell function, blood clotting, and nerve/muscle activity.
    • Magnesium: A component of bone structure and essential for energy metabolism.
    • Chloride: Abundant anion in extracellular fluid; vital for digestion and acid-base balance. Normal serum levels: 100 to 106 mEq/L.
    • Bicarbonate: Part of the buffering system to maintain pH levels in the body.
    • Phosphate: Key in energy metabolism and genetic material structure.

    Fluid and Nutritional Regulation

    • Osmoreceptor System: Regulates fluid intake and output to maintain balance.
    • Parathyroid Hormone (PTH): Adjusts calcium levels by bone resorption and intestinal absorption; secretion is responsive to serum calcium changes.

    Dietary Guidelines and Plans

    • Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs): Average daily intake values intended for healthy populations; includes RDA, AI, UL, and EAR.
    • Ethnic and Religious Food Patterns: Influences meal planning and individual dietary choices.
    • Vegetarian Diet Types:
      • Vegan: No animal products.
      • Lacto-ovo: Includes dairy and eggs, excludes meat/seafood.
      • Lacto: Includes dairy, excludes eggs/meat.

    Therapeutic Nutrition

    Miscellaneous

    • Colonoscopy Preparation: Clear liquid diet is essential; includes gelatin but excludes substances like ice cream.
    • MyPlate Guide: Emphasizes proportionate intake of food groups for balanced nutrition, not specific to therapeutic diets.
    • Infant Nutritional Needs: Caloric requirement of 100 cal/kg; for a 5-month-old (7.5 kg), requires 1125 mL of formula (calories per ounce converted to mL).
    • Bland Diet Reference: Often used for clients with gastrointestinal issues to minimize irritation.
