Table 158. Desirable dietary patterns (DDP)

Food Groups	Kilocalories %	Rating	Score	*Maximum Score permissible from each food group**
Cereals Roots and tubers Bananas & Plantains	45	0.5	22.5	30
Animal products	20	2.0	40.0	40

Fruits & Vegetables	5	2.0	10.0	10

Total	100		100

* Maximum scores allowed are, for instance, 60% kilocalories from cereal group (score = 60% × 0.5 = 30), 20% kilocalories from animal products (score = 20% × 2.0 = 40), etc. Over and above the maximum score limit, there will be no additional score to the diet from that food group. For example, 85% kilocalories from the cereal group will score 30 and not (85% × 0.5 = 42.5), similarly 45% kilocalories from animal products will score 40 and not (45% × 2.0=90).
