Macronutrients

Energy Yielding nutrients need in higher amounts


Microntrients

Needed in smaller amounts (vitamins and minerals)

Water

Large amounts needed daily, most vital of all nutrients

Carbs

Carbohydrates and Proteins 4cal/g (provide energy) Fats 9cal/g


Organic- contain carbon


protein contains nitrogen


Glucose

Major energy source


Organic

Vitamens (carbon based)

Inorganic

Minerals (no carbon)


vitamens and minerals do not provide energy

EAR

Estimate Average Requirement

RDA

Recommended Dietary Allowance


based on EAR but set higher

AI

Adequate Intake, beset estimate of amount of nutrients for good health

UL

Tolerable Upper Intake Level, highest amount of nutrients

AMDR

Acceptable Macronutrients Distribution Ranges


Carbs 1/2 intake


Fats 1/3 intake


Protein 1/4 intake

My Plate

half of plate fruits and vegetables


Food Label

List of ingredients from biggest to smallest

Digestion

small intestine #1 for absoarbtion

Salivary Amylase

Enzyme, begins digestion in mouth

HCI

Hydrochloric Acid, helps increase mineral absorption

Large Intestin

Absoarbs water and electrolytes, no digestive envymes

Pancreas

Insulin and glucogen, creates glucagon

Energy

Brain relies on glucose and red blood cells

Glycogen

Store glucose for energy

Monosacchrides

Glucose, Frutose, Galactose

Disaccharides

Maltose= glucose + glucose


Surcrose= glucose + frutose


Lactose= glucose + galactose

Polysacchrides

Starch, Fiber, Glycogen


glycogen is storage form of glucose, stored in muscle and liver

lactose Intolerance

eat small amounts throughout the day, eat dairy foods with meal or snack

Gluconeogensis

Making glucose, mostly from protein without glucose, fat can't be broken down, ketone bodies

Ketosis

elevated blood levels after fasting 2 days. Protein from muscle and organs broken down to make gluconeogensis

Type 1 Diabetes

Autoimmune Disease, no insulin, develops in childhood

Type 2 Diabetes

resistant to insulin

Reactive Hypoglycemia

small well balanced meals throughout the day

3 lipids

Triglycerides (fats) 3 fatty acids, one glycerol (backbone)


Phospholipids every cell has them


Sterols (cholesterol) precursor for vitamen D, bile acids, sex hormones


Saturated Fatty Acids

No double bond

Unsaturated Fatty Acids

less saturated with hydrogen

Monounsaturated fatty acids

one double bond

Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids

more than one double bond

Chylomicrons

made in intestin, tryglycerides with long chain fatty acids. Good and bad cholesterol HDL, LDL

Two polyunsaturated fatty acids

linoeic acid, alpha linolenic acid

9 essential amino acids


11 non essential amino acids

excess amino acids can be stored as fat, burned for energy, made into glucose


Collagen

#1 protein in body, most abundant protein in body

Nitrogen Balance

AMount of protein consumed=amount of protein used

Types of Vegetarions

semi, lacto ovo, vegan

Complete Protein

All 9 amino acids and some non amino acids

Incomplete Protein

Complemented- two plant sources put tougher to make proteins, lacking at least one amino acids
