Which of the following is incorrect?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks which statement is incorrect among the listed AMDR values.
Option a: 'The AMDR for carbohydrate is 50-55% total energy intake.' This is incorrect because the established AMDR for carbohydrate is broader, typically about 45-65% of total energy intake. Limiting it to 50-55% is not accurate and omits the full accepted range.
Option b: 'The AMDR for protein is 15-25% total energy intake.' This statement is generally considered incorrect if the reference range is 10-35% for protein, which is the common AMDR in many dietary guidelines. However, some sources do present 15-25% as a narrower recommendation; depending on the guideline, this could be debated. In many standard nutrition references, 10-35% is accepted, so 15-25% is not universally correct and thus potentially incorrect.
Option c: 'The AMDR for fat is 20-35% total energy intake.' This statement is correct, as the commonly cited AMDR for fat is 20-35% of total energy intake.
Option d: 'The AMDR for linoleic acid is 4-5 - 10% of total energy intake' This option appears to be misformatted, but the intended range is typically about 4-10% of total energy intake for linoleic acid, which would be correct if read as 4-10%. The odd formatting ('4-5 - 10%') makes it unclear, but assuming it intends 4-10%, it would be correct. If strictly read as written, the hyphenation ('4-5 - 10%') renders it ambiguous and therefore not a reliable correct statement.

In summary, the clearest incorrect option is a, since it asserts a narrower carbohydrate AMDR (50-55%) that does not match the standard 45-65% range. The others are either within accepted ranges or ambiguously formatted in a way that could be interpreted as correct. Note: variations in guidelines can cause minor differences, but option a is the most plainly incorrect given typical AMDR references.
