The three pie charts presented capture data describing the amounts of possibly detrimental supplements (sodium, saturated fats, and sugar) incorporated within four standard American meals.
Broadly speaking, American citizens ingested the majority of their sodium and fat at dinner, while sugar intake occurred mainly during snacks. Another general perspective finds that breakfast contained the lowest percentages for all three nutrients.
A specific analysis reveals that the combined totals of sodium at lunch and breakfast equaled the 43% taken in at dinner. Similarly, the tallied percentage for saturated fat consumption for snacks and breakfast matched the 37% digested during dinner. In a like manner to the previous points, consolidated sugar ingestion percentages at dinner and lunch paralleled the 42% eaten at snack time.
Regarding Americans absorbing sugar in the course of the day, the percentage steadily rose by 3% between breakfast and lunch, and then 4% from lunch to dinner. As opposed to the other nutrients, the citizens took in sodium at the same 14% for snacks and breakfast. On a final note, between breakfast and lunch, the saturated fat jumped 10% and then an additional 11% from lunch to dinner.
