2. REVIEW The study of nutrients and how the body uses them Nutrition
Nutrients have 3 functions
HELP THE BODY BUILD NEW TISSUE
HELPS THE BODY REPAIR DAMAGED CELLS
HELPS THE BODY PRODUCE ENERGY

5. OBJECTIVES identify the six major classes of nutrients.
explain specific ways your body uses nutrients.

6. Six Groups of Nutrients
6 ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS
Carbohydrates
Vitamins
Six Groups of Nutrients
Proteins
Minerals
Fats
Water

7. CARBOHYDRATES All carbohydrates are made of sugar molecules.
½-2/3 of your daily energy should come from carbohydrates
There are two kinds of carbohydrates: simple and complex.
carbohydrates Sugars and starches that occur naturally in foods, mainly in plants

8. SIMPLE CARBOHYDRATES Molecules remain separate
Fruits, vegetables, milk, and milk products

9. COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES
Molecules form long chains also know as starches.
Grains, dried beans, starchy vegetables such as potatoes

10. CARBOHYDRATES Carbohydrates are 4 calories per gram
45%-65% of total calories should come from carbohydrates

11. How do you calculate your %
If you are eating 2000 calories and you want 50% carbs here is your calculation
2000*.5= 1000 then you divide the number of calories in carbohydrates which is 4
1000/4 = 250 grams
So when looking at your food log you should be some where around 250

12. FIBER
Fiber is a special type of complex carbohydrate found in raw fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
fiber The parts of fruit, vegetables, grains, and beansthat your body cannot digest
Eating high-fiber foods can help reduce your risk of certain types of cancer and heart disease.

13. FIBER

14. PROTEINS
Proteins are made up of chemical building blocks called amino acids.
proteins Nutrients your body uses to build, repair, and maintain cells and tissues

15. PROTEINS
Proteins also play an important role in fighting disease because parts of your immune system are made of proteins.
There are 2 types of proteins: complete proteins and plant proteins.

16. COMPLETE PROTEINS Contain all nine of the essential amino acids.
Example, beef, pork, veal, fish, poultry, eggs, most dairy products

17. PLANT PROTEINS Lack one or more of the essential amino acids
Examples: nuts, peas, and dried beans

18. PROTEINS Proteins are 4 calories per gram
10%-30% of your total calories consumed should be from protein

19. CALCULATION
For a 2000 calorie diet if you wanted to calculate 30% protein
You would take 2000*.3=600
600 divided by calories in protein which is 4
600/4=150
So your food log should show you somewhere around 150 grams per day if you were on a 2000 calorie per day

20. FATS
Eating too many foods containing saturated fats can increase your risk of heart disease.
saturated fats Fats that are solid at room temperature
Butter, cheese, fatty meats

21. FATS Most of the fats in your diet should be unsaturated fats.
unsaturated fats Fats that remain liquid at room temperature
Olive oils, nuts, and avacodo

22. CHOLESTEROL Cholesterol is a fatty substance found in the blood.
Eating to much fat can increase the body’s level of cholesterol

23. CHOLESTEROL LDL “LOW DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN”
Collects on the walls of arteries and forms plaque
Know as bad cholesterol

24. CHOLESTEROL HDL “High density lipoprotein”
Removes LDL from the arteries
Know as good cholesterol

25. FATS Fats have 9 calories per gram
20%-35% of your total calories consumed should come from fat.
NOT ALL FATS ARE GOOD FATS.

26. CALCULATIONS
Example you have a 2000 calorie diet and you want to calculate 25% fats
2000*.25=500
500 then needs to be divided by fat calories per gram which is 9
500/9=55.6 grams
This means on your food log for 2000 calorie diet you would be around 55.6 grams of fats a day

27. VITAMINS AND MINERALS
Vitamins and minerals are essential to your body’s health.
vitamins Substances that help your body fight infections and use other nutrients, among other jobs
minerals Elements that help form healthy bones and teeth, and regulate certain body processes

28. VITAMINS AND MINERALS Vitamins Water-Soluble Fat-Soluble
Not stored in the body
Stored in the body
Must be consumed regularly
Stored in the body’s fat until they are needed.
The best way to get vitamins and minerals is to choose nutritious foods.

29. VITAMINS AND MINERALS

30. WATER HELPS DIGEST AND ABSORB FOOD
REGULATES BODY TEMPERATURE AND BLOOD CIRCULATION
CARRIES NUTRIENTS AND OXYGEN TO CELLS
REMOVES TOXINS AND OTHER WASTES
CUSHINONS NOINTS
PROTECTS TISSUES AND ORGANS FROM SHOCK AND DAMAGE

31. WATER
Dehydration is a lack of water in the body.
You need to replace the water your body loses by drinking at least eight 8-ounce cups of fluid each day.
