2. 1 FOOD SOURCES NUTRIENT DENSITY: click here

3. 2 There are 28 slides In this program. Click with your mouse, to move on the next slide. Be sure to read and understand each slide before you move on….

4. 3 WHAT IS NUTRIENT DENSITY? X Simply said: X Comparison of nutrient content to caloric content X In other words, how much nutrient is present in how many calories?

5. 4 One way to evaluate NUTRIENT DENSITY X In this assignment XYou will compare % Daily Values of nutrients to % Daily Value of calories

6. 5 Remember: There is a LIMITATION TO AM’T OF CALORIES X To maintain weight, calories in must equal calories out…..

7. 6 WITH TOO MANY CALORIES X you gain weight….. X SO you are limited on calories.

8. 7 Remember EXAMPLE: 1 bean & cheese burrito p. 158 of workbook Remember EXAMPLE: 1 bean & cheese burrito p. 158 of workbook

9. 8 You calculated % of DAILY VALUES for vitamins & minerals for one food. EXAMPLE IN CLASS was 1 bean & cheese burrito p. 158 of workbook

10. 9 Vitamin A (mcg) 1000 119 11.9% Vitamin E (mg) 9 0.5 5.5% Vitamin C (mg) 60 1 1.7% Vitamin B-6 (mg) 2 0.12 6 % Folate (mg) 400 41 10.2% Calculated % VITAMINS % DAILY VALUES were calculated by dividing amt of nutrient by daily value

11. 10 Vitamin A (mcg) 1000 119 11.9% Vitamin E (mg) 9 0.5 5.5% Vitamin C (mg) 60 1 1.7% Vitamin B-6 (mg) 2 0.12 6 % Folate (mg) 400 41 10.2% Calculated % VITAMINS Vitamin A: 119/100O * 100 = 11.9 %

12. 11 Vitamin A (mcg) 1000 119 11.9% Vitamin E (mg) 9 0.5 5.5% Vitamin C (mg) 60 1 1.7% Vitamin B-6 (mg) 2 0.12 6 % Folate (mg) 400 41 10.2% Calculated % VITAMINS Vitamin E: 0.5 / 9 * 100 = 5.5 %

13. 12 Vitamin A (mcg) 1000 119 11.9% Vitamin E (mg) 9 0.5 5.5% Vitamin C (mg) 60 1 1.7% Vitamin B-6 (mg) 2 0.12 6 % Folate (mg) 400 41 10.2% Calculated % VITAMINS And so on….

17. 16 One way would be to evaluate the number of calories in the food. Now Consider the question: “Are these amt of nutrients high or low?”

18. 17 If we assume a Daily Value of calories as 2000 AND we determine that 1 bean & cheese burrito contains 189 kcal, then 189 *100 = 9.4% of calories 2000 If we assume a Daily Value of calories as 2000 AND we determine that 1 bean & cheese burrito contains 189 kcal, then 189 *100 = 9.4% of calories 2000

19. 18 This means that 1 bean & cheese burrito supplies 9.4% of calories and this line can be drawn across the bar graphs as shown in the next two slides: This means that 1 bean & cheese burrito supplies 9.4% of calories and this line can be drawn across the bar graphs as shown in the next two slides:

20. 19 VITAMINS A E C B-6 FOLATE % Daily Values Line = amount of calories (9.4%)

21. 20 MINERALS Sod Pot Cal Mag Iron Zinc % Daily Values Line = amount of calories (9.4%)

22. 21 If we decide that: 1X calories: GOOD SOURCE & 2X calories: EXCELLENT SOURCE (of nutrient) Then in the burrito example > 9.4% = Good > 18.8% = Excellent of any nutrient

23. 22 Vitamin A (mcg) 1000 119 11.9% Vitamin E (mg) 9 0.5 5.5% Vitamin C (mg) 60 1 1.7% Vitamin B-6 (mg) 2 0.12 6 % Folate (mg) 400 41 10.2% VITAMINS compared to kcal: % kcal : 9.4 GOOD: Vitamin A Folate

24. 23 Sodium (mg) 2400 583 24.3% Potassium (mg) 3500 248 7.1% Calcium (mg) 1000 107 10.7% Magnesium (mg) 400 40 10 % Iron (mg) 18 1.2 6.7% Zinc (mg) 15 0.8 5.3% MINERALS % kcal : 9.4 EXCELLENT: Sodium (because > 18.8%)

28. 27 Follow the directions on the extra credit assignment sheet. Remember late work will not receive credit.

29. 28 HINT: You need only calculate the % of calories; all other values are the % DAILY VALUES! Summer 2002
