GROUP 3- INFANCY

An 8 month-old baby girl weighs 7kg. The baby is receiving breastmilk and complementary
breastfeeding.

Given:
Age= 8 months
Weight= 7kg

1. DBW= Age in month + 3


2
= 8months + 3
2
DBW= 7kg

2. BASAL NEEDS = 0.9 x 7kg x 24


BASAL NEEDS = 151.2 kcal

3. ESTIMATED PHYSICAL ACTIVITY= BED REST (FEMALE; 10%)


PA= 151.2kcal x 10%
PA= 15.12 kcal

4. TOTAL ENERGY ALLOWANCE


TEA= 151.2 kcal + 15.12 kcal
TEA= 166.32 kcal + breastmilk

5. Distribute Total Energy Allowance (TEA)


CHO 50%-70%
PRO 10%-15%
FAT 20%-30%

6. Calculate the corresponding energy contributions of the three nutrients


Carbohydrate = 166.32 x 0.65 = 108.11 kcal
Protein = 166.32 x 0.15 = 24.95 kcal
Fats = 166.32 x 0.20 = 33.26 kcal
7. Calculate the number of grams of CHO, Pro and Fats.
Carbohydrates = 108.11 kcal ÷ 4 = 27.03 gms
Protein = 24.95 kcal ÷ 4 = 6.24 gms
Fats = 33.26 kcal ÷ 9 = 3.70 gms

8. Diet Prescription
Diet Rx: 165 Kcal; CHO - 25 grams; Protein - 5 grams; Fats - 5 grams
