Simple (sugar) –digest quickly & easily Complex (starches) – chain of simple carbs connected

together Most common carbs: glucose & fructose Body breaks down into simple sugars Foods include: grain, dairy, fruits, sweets, etc .

CARBOHYDRATES

Page 3: By Erin Schrack Computers 8 NUTRITION.  Provides energy for body  2 major types  Simple (sugar) –digest quickly & easily  Complex (starches) – chain.

Acts as an insulation against heat loss Provides energy to body Protects important organs 2 types

Saturated (butter, lard, margarine) Polyunsaturated & monounsaturated fats (sunflower,

canola, olive, peanut, sesame, soybean oils, etc.) Amount of fat is essential for balanced diet Foods: meat, dairy, commercial pastries, etc.

FATS

Helps in functioning of stomach and intestines2 types:

Soluble – partially dissolves in water, decreases blood cholesterol levels

Insoluble fiber –doesn’t dissolve in water, decreases the risk of colon cancer

Mainly complex carbohydratesFoods include:

beans, bran, fruits, cabbage and other leafy vegetables, nuts, whole-grain bread, etc.

FIBER

Necessary for growth and health Increases speed of chemical reaction in body Keeps skin healthy & builds resistance to infection 2 types

Fat-soluble vitamins – vitamins A, D, E, K, store these vitamins in the liver and fatty tissues

Water-soluble vitamins - dissolve more readily in water Regulate chemical reactions when body converts food

into energy and living tissues Some essential vitamins produced within body itself

VITAMINS

Page 7: By Erin Schrack Computers 8 NUTRITION.  Provides energy for body  2 major types  Simple (sugar) –digest quickly & easily  Complex (starches) – chain.

Many vitamins Vitamin A- occurs naturally (egg, liver, milk etc.) Vitamin D- (sunshine vitamin) forms on skin when exposed

to sunlight, prevents bone disease Vitamin E - important role in maintaining cell membranes Vitamin K - essential for blood clotting Vitamin C - essential for healthy blood vessels, bones, and

teeth

VITAMINS (CONT.)

Helps body grow, develop & stay healthyBuilds strong bones, transmits nerve impulsesMake hormones & maintain normal heartbeat2 kinds:

macrominerals (calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, and sulfur)

Trace minerals (iron, manganese, copper, iodine, zinc, cobalt, fluoride, and selenium)

Calcium is the top macromineralFoods include:

Meats, certain vegetables, certain fruits, dairy

MINERALS

Transports nutrients & waste products necessary for all digesting, absorbing circulating &

excreting Maintains proper body temperature Removes toxins and wastes from body Acts as cushions for organs In almost everything we eat and drink
