A residential training centre provides each adult with a standard daily food ration. The ration supplies 12,400 kJ of energy, while an adult uses an average of 9,800 kJ each day. The ration also provides too little protein and too few micronutrients.
Which change to the ration is most likely to reduce the risks of both increased fat storage and malnutrition?
Lower the energy content towards 9,800 kJ and leave the protein and micronutrient content unchanged
Increase the energy content above 12,400 kJ and increase the protein and micronutrient content
Increase the energy content above 12,400 kJ and leave the protein and micronutrient content unchanged
Lower the energy content towards 9,800 kJ and increase the protein and micronutrient content
