Chromium is an essential trace mineral needed in small amounts. It plays a role in insulin function and glucose metabolism. Chromium deficiency can result in diabetes. It is found naturally in some foods like brewer's yeast, eggs, molasses, and onions. Recommended daily intakes vary from 11-45 micrograms depending on age. While chromium supplements are generally safe when taken as directed, very high uncontrolled doses from supplements could potentially cause side effects like skin irritation or rapid heartbeat. Maintaining adequate chromium levels through a balanced diet is recommended for overall health.

Kwashiorkor and marasmus are severe forms of malnutrition that can result from protein and calorie deficiencies. Kwashiorkor is characterized by edema, irritability, and skin changes and results from a lack of protein. Marasmus occurs due to a deficiency of all macronutrients and causes emaciation. Both conditions can cause complications affecting many organ systems. Diagnosis involves physical exams and lab tests. Treatment focuses on rehydration, stabilization, and nutritional rehabilitation.
The minerals form only a small portion of the total body weight. They form only 7% of the composition of human body.
Many of these minerals are widely distributed in foods so that a well-balanced diet will supply them in sufficient quantities.
The mineral elements present in the animal body may be classified into 2 groups:
1.Principal elements(macro nutrients)
2.Trace elements(micro nutrients)
Potassium is a mineral important for many bodily functions like muscle contractions and regulating heartbeat. It is found in foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains. A potassium deficiency can cause muscle cramps, congestive heart failure, diarrhea, and other conditions. It is important to get adequate potassium through diet or supplements.

This document discusses calories and the energy balance equation in depth. It argues that calories in/calories out is an oversimplification and that biochemistry, not physics, determines weight gain and loss. The summary is:
1) While calories consumed must equal calories expended to maintain weight, the equation is more complex than typically presented, with stored energy occurring in body fat, tissues, waste, and kinetic energy in heat and metabolism.
2) Different foods impact the body differently - fiber passes through undigested but sugar is quickly absorbed, for example.
3) Relying only on calorie counting to lose weight ignores hormonal factors and can promote processed, low-calorie foods that may
Osteomalacia is the softening of bones caused by defective bone mineralization due to inadequate levels of phosphate and calcium, often caused by vitamin D deficiency. Some key risk groups include homebound adults, vegetarians, and those with limited sun exposure or gastrointestinal disorders that impact absorption.

Kwashiorkor is a form of severe protein malnutrition that most commonly affects children in areas impacted by drought or famine. It is caused by a diet inadequate in protein despite sufficient calorie intake. Symptoms include swelling, skin changes, hair and nail abnormalities, lethargy, and slowed growth. Treatment focuses on gradually increasing protein and micronutrient intake while addressing medical complications like infections. Preventing kwashiorkor requires a well-balanced diet containing sufficient protein, carbohydrates, and fat.
Lipids are a heterogeneous group of compounds that are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. They are classified into simple lipids, compound lipids, and derived lipids. Simple lipids include fats and oils (esters of fatty acids and glycerol) and waxes (esters of fatty acids and higher alcohols). Compound lipids contain additional groups like phosphate, carbohydrates, or sulfur. Phospholipids and glycolipids are examples. Derived lipids are produced from simple and compound lipids and include fatty acids, cholesterol, and hormones. Fatty acids are the building blocks of lipids and are classified as saturated or unsaturated based on double bond presence. Lipids serve important roles in energy storage

Children raised on fruits, vegetables and whole grains grow up to be healthier and slimmer as compared to others. Here is a diet plan that could help you in choosing the right diet for your kid.
Water makes up over half of the human body and plays several critical roles. It acts as a solvent, transports nutrients and waste, cushions and protects organs and tissues, regulates body temperature, and lubricates joints. Dehydration, even as slight as 2% of body water loss, can negatively impact brain function, digestion, energy levels and lead to headaches and fatigue. Proper hydration is essential for overall health and well-being.
Vitamin K plays an important role in blood clotting and helps prevent excessive bleeding. It exists in two forms, K1 from plants and K2 created in the intestines. Vitamin K deficiency can cause hemorrhagic diseases in newborns due to poor placental transmission of vitamins, an immature liver, and low levels in breast milk. Risk groups include those on blood thinners or antibiotics and those with malabsorption conditions. Diagnosis involves tests of clotting factors and platelets.
Iron is an essential mineral that carries oxygen and forms part of hemoglobin in red blood cells and myoglobin in muscle. It helps red blood cells carry oxygen to all parts of the body. Sources of iron include liver, red meat, lentils, beans, green leafy vegetables, and raisins. Iron is primarily absorbed in the small intestine and is stored in the liver, spleen, and bone marrow. Factors that increase absorption include low body iron stores and conditions with increased red blood cell production.
Iodine is an essential micronutrient needed for normal growth and development. The body contains 15-23mg of iodine, most of which is found in the thyroid gland. Recommended daily allowances of iodine range from 90-200 micrograms depending on age and pregnancy/lactation status. Excess iodine intake can inhibit thyroid hormone synthesis and cause hypothyroidism in newborns. Common dietary sources of iodine include fish, eggs, milk, meat, sorghum, blackgram, and mustard. However, iodine levels are reduced by 37-70% during cooking.

Prevent and Treat Osteoporosis 9769352147Bhupesh Kode
Osteoporosis is a condition where bones become brittle and prone to fractures due to loss of bone density. It is estimated that over 300 million Indians have osteoporosis. Symptoms may not appear until a fracture occurs. Risk factors include age, gender, family history, small frame size, smoking, excessive alcohol, low calcium intake, and medications like corticosteroids. Diagnosis involves a bone density scan, with results given as a T-score. Treatment focuses on lifestyle changes like exercise, calcium and vitamin D supplementation, and bone-boosting drugs. Maintaining bone health throughout life can help prevent osteoporosis and fractures later in life.
Magnesium is effective for treating muscle cramps. It helps stabilize cell membranes and is important for energy production, cell growth, and protein formation. Cramps occur due to involuntary muscle contractions that briefly stay flexed. Low levels of electrolytes like magnesium, calcium, potassium, and sodium from sweating or certain drugs and medical conditions can cause cramps. Consuming a diet high in magnesium and vitamin E through foods and supplements can help prevent cramps by maintaining electrolyte levels.

Calcium
Main functions:bone/tooth formationregulation of nerve transmission, blood clotting, contraction of muscleshelps maintain normal blood pressure
Stored in:99% of the total calcium in the body is stored in the bones1% of the total calcium in the body is found in the blood
*
Calcium stored in the bones serves as a reservoir of calcium. Its there to help maintain blood calcium levels when intake of calcium is low.
A chronically poor intake of calcium, over a number of years, causes a lot of calcium to removed from the bones to supply the blood (which is used for more immediate needs like muscle contraction, nerve transmission, etc).
Eventually, calcium loss from the bones results in reduced bone density and this condition is known as osteoporosis. We will discuss osteoporosis in a bit.
Calcium has a low bioavailability so anything that you can do to enhance, and therefore, improve calcium absorption is important.These are factors which enhance calcium’s bioavailability:Vitamin D: fortunately one of the best sources of calcium (milk) also contains Vitamin D. Women taking calcium supplements should also consider taking a calcium supplement that has some Vitamin D to help with absorption.Lactose: again, milk, our best calcium source also contains lactose. (What is lactose?)Gastric acid: is the acid secreted in your stomach for digestion; calcium absorption is enhanced in an acidic environment—since acid is secreted whenever you eat food, its best to take a calcium supplement with food.Need: any time you body needs more calcium, during pregnancy and periods of active growth such as infancy and adolescence, for example, our bodies can absorb more calcium
Factors which decrease Calcium absorptionToo much fiber in the diet>35 gms/dayfor most Americans, this is not a problem, since the average fiber intake is ~10-15 gms/dayAgeAs we age, we produce less gastric acidExcess use of laxativesToo much phosphorus in the dietOur main source of phosphorus is soda—and we drink a lot of soda, especially children and teens—which could be putting thier bones at risk, especially when they substitute soda for milkVitamin D deficiencyToo much coffee, tea
