THE 6 BASIC NUTRIENTS CARBOHYDRATES PROTEIN FATS VITAMINS MINERALS WATER
CARBOHYDRATES: • The starches and sugars found in food. • The body’s chief source of energy. • Dietary Fiber – a subclass of complex carbohydrates . • Helps to aid in digestion. • Simple sugars – found mostly in fruits, candy cookies, and sodas. • They are absorbed quickly into the bloodstream and are a quick form of energy.
PROTEINS The nutrient that helps build, maintain, and repair body tissues. They also serve as a secondary source of energy. The building block of protein are amino acids.
FATS A concentrated form of energy. Helps transport other nutrients to locations in the body where they are needed.
VITAMINS • Micronutrients that help control body processes and help your body release energy . • They do not provide energy for the body because they do not contain calories. • Fat- Soluble: carried by fat in food and in your body. • They can be stored in the body, • Vitamins A,D,E and K are fat soluble. • Water Soluble: not stored in the body. • Replaced daily by eating nutritious foods. • Vitamins C and the B complex are water soluble.
MINERALS Substances that the body cannot manufacture but are needed for forming healthy bones and teeth and for regulating many vital processes.
WATER Between 60% and 70% of your body is water weight. It helps regulate body temperature, carries nutrients to cells, aids in digestion and elimination. It also helps with chemical reactions in the body.
