Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Recording what the person ate and how much is the best choice because it allows for accurate tracking of their diet and helps identify any potential issues or areas for improvement. Simply recording the number of calories ingested or measuring them may not provide enough context, and asking the person to record their own intake and output may not be feasible or reliable.
