What is “good” nutrition? • “good” vs “bad” • Never eating a candy bar? • Never drinking a beer? • Consumption of nutritious foods in appropriate amounts
Definition of Nutrition • Interaction between food and an organism • Subdisciplines involved: • physiology • biochemistry • economics • sociology • psychology
Subdisciplines involved with Nutrition • Applied Sciences • food technology • soil science • botany • genetics • microbiology
Definition of Nutrient • A substance used by the body for normal growth, reproduction, and maintenance of health • Provides structure, energy, and regulation • essential vs non-essential
According to the information presented in the above figure, sickle-cell anemia, hemophilia and Down syndrome may respond to the effects of diet and nutrition changes during a person’s lifetime... • True • False • Not enough information is available to make a decision • I don’t know
Classes of Nutrients • Macronutrients • Carbohydrates • Protein • Lipid • Micronutrients • Vitamins • Minerals • Water
Vitamin A, C, Thiamin and Riboflavin are all considered • Micronutrients • Macronutrients • Energy nutrients • Minerals
Functions of Nutrients Provide Energy Form Body Structures Regulation of Body Processes
Energy • 1000 calories = 1 kilocalorie = 1 Calorie • 1 calorie = amount of energy needed to increase 1 gram of water 1 degree C. • 1 kilocalorie = amount of energy needed to increase 1000 grams of water 1 degree C.
Kcals versus Kjoules • 1 calorie = 4.185 joules • 1 kcal = 4.185 kjoules • Tell Dr. Lygre
Calorie Calculation • CHO: 4 Calories per gram • Protein: 4 Calories per gram • Lipid: 9 Calories per gram • Alcohol: 7 Calories per gram
Calculation • Spaghetti sauce: CHO: 8 grams, Protein: 2 grams, Fat: 1 gram • CHO: 8 grams x 4 Cal = 32 Cal • Protein: 2 grams x 4 Cal = 8 Cal • Fat: 1 gram x 9 Cal = 9 Cal • Total Cal = 32 + 8 + 9 = 49 Cal
Calculations • RICE a RONI • CHO; 41 g • Protein; 5 g • Fat; 1 g • Answer • CHO: 41 x 4 = 164 • Protein: 5 x 4 = 20 • Fat: 1 x 9 = 9 • Total Calorie = 193
Calculations • If your diet allows for 2500 Calories, how many grams of fat are you allowed if you keep your % fat at or below 30% • 2500 x .30 = 750 Calories • 750 Calories/ 9 = 83 grams Calories/gram)
Calculations • How many grams of fat are you allowed if your diet is restricted to 1500 Calories? • Answer: • 1500 x .30 = 450 Calories • 450/9 = 50 grams of fat
10 grams of fat equals • 10 Kcals • 40 Kcals • 90 kcals • I don’t know because I was asleep but I was here and I pushed a button on my clicker and I have a pulse and respiration
Structure • “You are what you eat...” : certain amount of truth. • Genetic potential • environmental influence • developing fetus
Regulation • Protein, vitamins and minerals are chief regulators. • Protein malnutrition leads to edema: • Water escapes from blood vessels and locates between cells or in cavities such as gut.
Types of Nutrition Studies: • Case Study: • A person with a problem • Problem is reported • May offer suggestion about a certain disease, nutrition deficiency • eg. infant formula without essential fatty acids
Types of Nutrition Studies • Epidemiological Study • Usually large population • No control or limited control • relate one factor to another • eg high fat intake related to heart disease
Types of Nutrition Studies: • Intervention Studies • More control • Limit food intake and see what affect it has on disease state • eg limit sodium intake and see what affect it has on blood pressure
Types of Nutrition Studies: • Tight control in a laboratory setting. • often done with lab animals or a metabolic ward with people • control as many parameters as you are able • measure affects on the disease state • eg rats in a lab: feed sodium and measure blood pressure
