Match Nutrient in List - I with the recommended intake in List - II.
| List - I (Nutrient) | List - II (Recommended Intake) |
|---|---|
| (a) Fat | (i) 25-30% of energy |
| (b) Carbohydrate | (ii) 10- 12% of energy |
| (c) Fibre | (iii) \(\lt\) 300 mg/d |
| (d) Protein | (iv) 50 - 60% of energy |
| (e) Cholesterol | (v) 30 g/d |
Code :
(a) (b) (c) (d) (e)
Answer: C
The correct matching is a-i, b-iv, c-v, d-ii, e-iii, which is option C. Fat should supply 25-30 per cent of energy, carbohydrate 50-60 per cent, fibre about 30 g a day, protein 10-12 per cent of energy, and cholesterol under 300 mg a day. Option A swaps fat with protein, option B assigns fat to carbohydrate, and option D places fibre and cholesterol wrongly. Remembering these values helps in diet planning: carbohydrates form the bulk of energy in an Indian diet, fat is kept moderate, protein is a smaller share, and fibre and cholesterol are measured in grams or milligrams a day.
