Why is proper nutrition important? All living things need food and water to live. All human beings need “good food” to live well. Food = energy (measured in calories) Carbohydrates - 1 gram = 4 calories Protein - 1 gram = 4 calories Fats - 1 gram = 9 calories Proper nutrition provides the body with the nutrients necessary to build, maintain, and repair tissues.

Types of Nutrients Nutrients – essential for human survival and growth Carbohydrates Proteins Fats Water Nutrients – essential for growth and enhance the function and usability of macro-nutrients Vitamins Minerals The difference between macro and micro nutrients is the amount your need each day. Macro-nutrients must exceed one gram per day.

Carbohydrates Provide energy for your body by converting to glucose. Three types of carbohydrates: Simple – one or two units of sugar Complex – more than two units of sugar Dietary fiber – complex carbohydrates that are not a source of energy and add no calories to your diet. Protect your muscles. Regulate the amount of sugar circulating in your body.

Proteins Used for tissue growth and repair. The more intensely you train, the more protein is required for repair and growth. Consuming more protein than the body needs can result in an increase in fat storage.

Fats A healthy body needs fat. Major uses for FAT Provides a source of stored energy. Gives shape to your body. Cushions your skin. Acts as an insulator in order to reduce heat loss. Protects your organs if you fall or are injured.

Vitamins Vitamins and minerals act as regulators and catalysts for a variety of bodily functions. Vitamins are essential for: Promoting healing Preventing nutritional deficiency diseases.

Minerals Minerals are essential for: The formation of strong bones and teeth Helping to control the nervous system Fluid balance in tissues Muscle contractions Minerals and most vitamins must be supplied through diet since they are not made in the body. Ex. Potassium, Calcium, Iron

Water Digest food Carry waste products out of your body Your overall body is between 70 - 80% water. Your muscles are about 75% water Your body needs water to: Digest food Carry waste products out of your body Regulate body temperature Lubricate moving parts

Results of Poor Nutrition Obesity Heart Disease Hypertension (high blood pressure) Diabetes (Type II) Osteoporosis (low bone density, holes in bones) Bones may break due to a lack of calcium Gums may bleed due to low Vitamin C Low Iron count (anemia)
