The bar charts illustrate the average amount of calorie and protein absorbed by 4 different groups of people from all over the world.
Overall, the northern part of America consumes the largest amount of both protein and calorie on average, and it was the only area to pass the ideal nutrient intake. The units of protein intake in this area are twice as much as the ones from the following group, which is the Latin America with about 45 units. In contrast, the Indian’s protein and calorie intake amounts are at the end of the list. What is more, for most of the regions, animal protein accounts for the bigger part of the total amount of protein intake except in India.
While the North American and Latin American get much more protein from animal sources than the others, approximately 3 times higher for the Northern part and 2 times for the Latin one, Indian and East African get their energy from both sources equally. Regarding calories intake, North America records the highest amount of calories consumed, which surpasses nearly 500 units by the ideal amount. This was followed by the Latin America with the total intake of calories about to reach the ideal level. The figures for East Africa and India are significantly lower, at 2300 and 2000 respectively.
