The bar graphs compare the mean protein and calorie consumption among four different areas around the world, namely India, East Africa, Latin America, and North America.
Overall, North America consistently has the highest protein and calorie intake, while the opposite was true for India. Additionally, North America is the only region where the intake in both categories exceeds the recommended level.
Regarding the average protein intake, the amount of animal protein consumed by North Americans is five times higher than that of other sources, with 62 and 18 units, respectively, while the figures for Latin America are much lower, at 32 and 13 units, in that order. However, the average animal-derived and other origins protein intake in India and East Africa are almost comparable, at around half each.
Concerning the average calorie intake, North America records the highest amount with about 3500 calories, surpassing the standard intake, while that of Latin Americans is just below the ideal level. Conversely, calorie intake amounts in East Africa and India are much lower, with respective figures being approximately 2400 and 2000 calories, with the latter being the lowest.
