Carbohydrates are the most abundant macromolecules of life are made up entirely of C, H, O Functions of Carbohydrates are: Plant Structure cellulose gives structure to many plant walls Immediate Energy Needs carbohydrates are broken down to glucose glucose is used to make ATP (adenosine triphosphate) ATP is the body's energy currency Long-Term Energy Storage glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles
2
Monosaccharides Glucose main source of our fuel formed by plants found in many foods C 6 H 12 O 6 Galactose forms lactose Fructose found in fruit/honey Ribose found in RNA Deoxyribose found in DNA
3
Disaccharides
4
Polysaccharides Starch plant energy storage found in potatoes, rice corn and wheat Glycogen animal energy storage Cellulose plant structure source of dietary fiber Chitin found in insects and crustacean shells
5
Fruits Consume a variety of fruits and no more than one-third of the recommended intake as fruit juice
6
Vegetables Choose a variety of vegetables from all five subgroups several times a week
7
Dietary Fiber
8
Fiber Soluble Insoluble

Gallbladder stores bile Liver uses blood cholesterol to make bile Intestine: bile aids digestion; binds to fiber Fiber and bile excreted in feces A little cholesterol in bile reabsorbed into the blood 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. High-Fiber Diet

Gallbladder stores bile Liver uses blood cholesterol to make bile Intestine: bile aids digestion Little bile excreted Much of the cholesterol in bile absorbed into the blood Low-Fiber Diet 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Solid Fats and Added Sugars Limit intakes of food and beverages with solid fats and added sugars
21
Proteins are composed of chains of amino acids held together by peptide bonds are polymers made from a set of 20 monomers or amino acids The Function of Proteins are: Body and Cellular Support collagen in your skin, hair, bones, and arteries provide strength CAM (cell adhesion molecule) proteins anchor cells together Organ and Body Movement actin and myosin filaments in muscle regulate muscle contraction Cellular Communication receptors, hormones, and MHC proteins allow cellular communicate Transportation of Nutrients hemoglobin carries oxygen via red blood cells throughout the body Regulation of Physiological Functions enzymes, hormones, and neurotransmitters regulate many activities

Meat, Poultry, Fish, Dried Peas and Beans, and Nuts Make lean or low-fat choices
35
Lipids are non-polar molecules and are therefore not soluble in water Functions of Lipids are: Cell Structure phospholipids and cholesterol make-up each cell's plasma membrane Long-Term Energy Storage triglycerides are stored in adipose or "fat" tissue Hormonal Regulation steroid hormones regulate reproduction Organ Protection fats surround organs and offer protection from wear and tear Insulation fats fill the outer layers of the body to insulate us from cold temperatures
