Solution

Based on the information provided, there are several nutrient categories that are concerning for Amelia's intake during her second trimester of pregnancy.

  1. Protein: The recommended intake is 1.1 g/kg/day x her weight in kg (58.06 kg), which equals to approximately 64 grams/day. Amelia's intake is 55 grams, which is below the recommended amount.

  2. Total Fiber: The recommended intake is 28 grams, but Amelia's intake is 16 grams, which is also below the recommended amount.

  3. Total Fat: The recommended intake is 20 to 35% of total Calories. Without knowing the exact caloric level of Amelia, it's hard to determine if 70 grams of total fat is within this range.

  4. Vitamin A: The recommended intake is 770 micrograms RAE, but Amelia's intake is 146 micrograms RAE, which is significantly below the recommended amount.

  5. Folate: The recommended intake is 600 micrograms DFE, but Amelia's intake is 316 micrograms DFE, which is also below the recommended amount.

  6. Calcium: The recommended intake is 1000 milligrams, but Amelia's intake is 498 milligrams, which is half of the recommended amount.

  7. Iron: The recommended intake is 27 milligrams, but Amelia's intake is 11.7 milligrams, which is less than half of the recommended amount.

Therefore, the nutrient categories that are concerning are Protein, Total Fiber, Vitamin A, Folate, Calcium, and Iron.
