MEDICAL NUTRITION THERAPY MANUAL
HDFN 401
IMPORTANT CONVERSIONS:
*WEIGHT:
1 kg = 1000 g = 2.2 lbs
454g = 1 lb= 16 oz
28.4 g = 1 oz
1 g = 1000 mg
1 mg = 1000 µg
*VOLUME:
1 L = 1000mL = 1 qt = 4c
240 mL = 1 c = 8 oz
5 mL = 1 tsp
15 mL = 1 T = 3 tsp
16 T = 1 c
30 mL = 1 fl oz
*LENGTH:
2.54 cm = 1 in
*NUTRITION:
1 lb = 3500 kcal
1 g CHO = 4 kcal
1 g Protein = 4 kcal
1 g Fat = 9 kcal
*BIOCHEMICAL:
Glucose: .0555 x mg/dL = mmol/L
Lipids (TC, LDL, HDL): .0259 x mg/dL = mmol/L
Lipids (TG): .011 x mg/dL = mmol/L
ESTIMATING CALORIE NEEDS:
*RESTING METABOLIC RATE (RMR):
MIFFLIN-ST. JEOR
MEN (10 x wt. in kg) + (6.25 x ht. in cm) (5 x age) + 5
WOMEN (10 x wt. in kg) + (6.25 x ht. in cm) (5 x age) - 161
* Multiply RMR by AF of 1.3 for sedentary people or higher AF for active individuals
*EMPERICAL FORMULAS:
OBESES/VERY INACTIVE 10 12 kcal/lb
> 55 YO, ACTIVE WOMEN, SEDENTARY MEN 13 kcal/lb
ACTIVE MEN, VERY ACTIVE WOMEN 15 kcal/lb
THIN OR VERY ACTIVE MEN 20 kcal/lb
*HARRIS-BENEDICT:
*Classic formula for basal needs but over and underestimates needs
NORMAL OVERWEIGHT INDIVIDUALS
MEN 66.47 + (13.75 x wt in kg) + (5.0 x ht in cm) (6.76 x age)
WOMEN 655.10 + (9.56 x wt in kg) + (1.85 x ht in cm) (4.68 x age)
OBESE INDIVIDUALS (>130% IBW)
MEN Adjusted body weight = (CBW IBW) x .38 + IBW
WOMEN Adjusted body weight = (CBW IBW) x .32 + IBW
* Now multiply Basal Energy Needs by the suitable activity or stress factor
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION (if healthy) ACTIVITY FACTOR (AF)
