Proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids are the three main types of macronutrients. The document provides an overview of each macronutrient, including their classification, sources, functions, digestion and absorption. Carbohydrates are divided into simple and complex categories, with simple carbs like sugars providing quick energy and complex carbs like starches being more filling and nutritious. Protein is important for growth, repair and maintenance, with animal foods providing complete proteins and plant foods providing complementary proteins. Lipids provide energy storage and insulation, and are classified as simple, complex or precursor lipids depending on their structure.
The topic is about carbohydreates.
This lecture will cover an introduction to carbohydrates, its classification and exmaples. it will also cover the difference between glycemic index, difference between complex vs simple carb and also what are the fuctions of carbohydrates. this content will be helpful for all categories of students. 2014 study published in JAMA and youtube sources helps me in preparing lecture.
At the end of this lecture, the students should be able to:-
1. Differentiate simple carbohydrates and complex carbohydrate
2. Describe the function of carbohydrates in the body
3. Demonstrate knowledge of health with carbohydrates

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

6. MACRONUTRIENTS
• A range of nutrients that provide energy and are essential for growth and maintenance
of the body.
• essential for proper body functioning,
• and the body requires large amounts of them.
• All macronutrients must be obtained through diet; the body cannot produce
macronutrients on its own.
• three macronutrients are:
• carbohydrates,
• protein
• and fats
• Measured in grams.
6
7. CARBOHYDRATES
• Key component of the diet.
• sugars, starches and fibers found in fruits, grains, vegetables and milk products.
• one of the basic food groups — are important to a healthy diet.
• body's main source of energy.
• recommended daily amount (RDA) of carbs for adults is 135 grams.
• should be between 45% and 65% of total calories.
• One gram of carbohydrates equals about 4 calories.
7
8. CLASSIFICATION
• contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
• 3 main groups:
• Monosaccharide
• Disaccharide
• Polysaccharide
• Starch polysaccharide: polysaccharide containing starch. Examples: amylose,
amylopectin.
• Non-starch polysaccharide: polysaccharide other than starches. Examples: cellulose,
hemicellulose. 8
9. CONTD.
Monosaccharides:
• smallest possible sugar unit.
• Empirical formula: (C-H2O)n
• Examples include glucose, galactose, or fructose.
• Glucose is a major source of energy for a cell.
• In human nutrition, these include:
• galactose, most readily available in milk and dairy products
• fructose, mostly in vegetables and fruit
9
10. CONTD.
Disaccharides:
• two monosaccharide join and there is the removal of water molecule.
• for example, lactose, maltose, and sucrose.
• Glucose+ galactose lactose (commonly found in milk)
• Glucose+ fructose sucrose (found in table sugar)
• Glucose + glucose maltose (key structural motif of starch)
10
11. CONTD.
Polysaccharides
• formed by the joining of many monosaccharide molecule.
• act as food stores in plants and animals.
• play a structural role in the plant cell wall and the tough outer skeleton of insects.
• The chain in polysaccharides may be:
• branched, so that the molecule looks like a tree with branches and twigs
• unbranched, where the molecule is a straight line
• Examples:
• Glycogen, that humans and animals store in the liver and muscles.
• Starches, not water soluble, Humans and animals digest them using amylase enzymes.
• Cellulose, main structural constituents of plants.
11
12. SIMPLE AND COMPLEX CARBS
• Monosaccharides and disaccharides are simple carbohydrates, and polysaccharides are
complex.
• Simple carbohydrates are sugars.
• consist of just one or two molecules.
• provide a rapid source of energy, but the consumer soon feels hungry again.
• Examples include white bread, sugars, and candies.
• Complex carbohydrates consist of long chains of sugar molecules.
• Whole-grains and foods that still have their fiber in are complex carbs.
• They tend to fill you up for longer, and
• they are considered more healthful, as they contain more vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
• Examples include fruits, vegetables, pulses, and wholemeal pasta.
12
13. GOOD CARBS VS. BAD CARBS
Bad Carbs:
• carbs commonly considered bad include pastries, sodas, highly processed foods, white
rice, white bread and other white-flour foods.
• These are foods with simple carbs.
Good Carbs:
• Carbs usually considered good are complex carbs, such as whole grains, fruits,
vegetables, beans and legumes.
• These are not only processed more slowly, but they also contain a bounty of other
nutrients. 13
15. GLYCEMIC INDEX
• not the type of carbohydrate, but rather the carb's glycemic index,
• relative ranking of carbohydrate in foods according to how they affect blood
glucose levels.
• High-glycemic foods like pastries raise blood sugar highly and rapidly;
• low-glycemic foods, raise it gently and to a lesser degree.
• high GI carbohydrates are those which are rapidly digested, absorbed and
metabolized and result in marked fluctuations in blood sugar (glucose) levels.
• Low GI carbohydrates – the ones that produce smaller fluctuations in your blood
glucose and insulin levels – is one of the secrets to long-term health, reducing
your risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease. 15
17. FUNCTIONS
• Provide the body with energy.
• provide fuel for the central nervous system (influence heat health
and diabetes)
• and energy for working muscles.
• Sparing the use of protein for energy.
• Avoiding ketosis from the breakdown of fatty acids
• Cellular and protein recognition (biological recognition)
• Promote digestive health 17
18. DEFICIENCY
• Without enough fuel, the body gets no energy.
• without enough glucose, the central nervous system suffers, which may cause
dizziness or mental and physical weakness,
• hypoglycemia.
• If the body has insufficient carbohydrate intake or stores, it will consume protein
for fuel. This is problematic because the body needs protein to make muscles.
• Using protein for fuel instead of carbohydrates also puts stress on the kidneys,
leading to the passage of painful byproducts in the urine.
• People who don't consume enough carbohydrates may also suffer from insufficient
fiber, which can cause digestive problems and constipation. 18
19. RECOMMENDATIONS
• We need carbohydrates for health, but they must be the right kind of
carbohydrate.
• Following a well-balanced diet that includes unprocessed carbohydrates and
getting enough sleep and physical activity is more likely to lead to good health
and an appropriate body weight than focusing on or eliminating a particular
nutrient.
19
21. INTRODUCTION:
• Proteins are essential nutrients, building blocks & fuel source for body
• Proteins & carbohydrate provide 4 kcal (17 KJ) per gram; lipids provide 9 kcal
(37 kJ) per gram.
• Proteins are polymer of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
21
22. WHY SO IS PROTEIN IMPORTANT?
• Proteins are fundamental structural and functional elements within body and are
involved in a wide range of metabolic interactions.
• All cells and tissues contain protein therefore protein is essential for growth and
repair and the maintenance of good health.
• Protein provides the body with approximately 10 to 15% of its dietary energy and
it is the second most abundant compound in the body, following water.
• A large proportion of protein is present in muscle then blood & skin.
22
23. TYPES OF PROTEIN:
1. Complete proteins: These foods contain all the essential amino acids.
They mostly occur in animal foods, such as meat, dairy, and eggs.
2. Incomplete proteins: contain at least one essential amino acid, so
there is a lack of balance in the proteins, such as peas, beans, and grains
3. Complementary proteins: refer to two or more foods containing
incomplete proteins that people can combine to supply complete protein.
Examples are rice and beans or bread with peanut butter.
23
25. RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCE:
• The FDA recommend that adults consume 50 grams of protein a day, as part of a 2,000-
calorie diet.
• Depends upon range of factors like Aging, Gender, Activity level & status for example
pregnancy.
• Protein provides calories. One gram of protein contains 4 calories. One gram of fat has 9
calories.
• High intake of protein also result in weight loss (so highly recommendation)
25
26. INTAKE & DIGESTION OF PROTEIN:
• Protein digestion occur by two ways
1. Mechanical digestion (physical breakdown)
2. Chemical digestion (by digestive enzymes)
• Food enters through mouth where saliva provides lubrication and salivary gland
involved in digestion.
• Next step is Stomach where pepsinogen released activated by HCL converts
protein into polypeptides & dipeptides
26
27. CONTINUED..
• In intestine trypsin, chymotrypsin act on the precursors & convert them into
peptides Amino acid residues that are absorbed into blood stream.
• This is crucial for the absorption of the essential amino acids that cannot be
biosynthesized by the body.
27
28. DEFICIENCY OF PROTEIN:
• Protein deficiency occur due to low protein intake in diet.
• Lack of protein diet is of major concern especially for growing children.
• It can lead to malnutrition & even life threatening.
• A deficiency can also arise if a person has a health condition, such as:
an eating disorder (anorexia nervosa)
certain genetic conditions
the later stages of cancer
difficulty absorbing nutrients, due to gastric bypass surgery 28
29. SYMPTOMS OF PROTEIN DEFICIENCY:
Weak and sore muscles
Increased water
retention
Dry skin and rashes
Weight loss
Anxiety
Nausea
Skin ulcers
Bed sores
29
30. DISEASES DUE TO PROTEIN DEFICIENCY:
1. Marasmus
2. Kwashiorkor
3. Protein C and Protein S deficiency
4. Cachexia
5. Mental Retardation
30
31. CONTINUED..
1. Marasmus:
• Marasmus is a disease caused by a severe deficiency of protein and calories.
• Affect infants and very young children, often resulting in weight loss and
dehydration.
• Marasmus can develop into starvation and cause death because of a lack of
essential nutrients.
• People with marasmus appear bony with little muscle tissue.
31
32. CONTINUED..
2. Kwashiorkor:
• Kwashiorkor is a disease caused by a severe deficiency of protein in diets that
contain calories mostly from carbohydrates such as yams, rice and bananas.
• It usually affects older children. People with kwashiorkor appear puffy in the
abdomen area from retention of fluid.
• Common symptoms of kwashiorkor include fatigue, irritability, diarrhea, stunted
growth and impairment of cognition and mental health.
32
33. CONTINUED..
3. Protein C & protein S deficiency:
• Deficiencies of protein C and protein S are inherited conditions that cause
abnormal blood clotting.
• Symptoms for these deficiencies include redness, pain, swelling in the affected
area.
• People with these protein deficiencies need to be careful about activities that
increase risk of blood clots, such as prolong bed rest etc.
33
34. TREATMENT OF PROTEIN DEFICIENCY:
1. Protein supplements
• Protein shakes
• Protein based medicine (vaccines)
2. Protein rich foods
• Liver, Meat, Eggs, potatoes, yoghurt, Oats, Seeds Peanuts
34
35. BENEFITS OF PROTEIN:
• Prevents diabetes
• Saves form cardiovascular diseases
• When protein level is high fat will be low
• Cholesterol content decreased
35
36. CONCLUSION:
• Protein is very important because of various functions it plays
• Optimum and balanced amount is recommended.
• Its deficiency can cause severe diseases.
• Excess of everything is bad, High level of Animal protein is major cause of
mortality more than CVD and Cancer.
36
38. LIPIDS
• The lipids are a heterogeneous group of compounds, including fats, oils, steroids,
waxes and related compounds, that are related more by their physical than by
their chemical properties.
• They have the common property of being
relatively insoluble in water.
soluble in nonpolar solvents such as ether and chloroform.
38
39. DIETARY FAT COMPOSITION
• More than 95% are triglycerides,
The others are:-
Cholesterol
Cholesteryl esters
Phospholipids, and
Unesterified fatty acids.
39
40. DIETARY SOURCES OF LIPIDS
• Animal Sources:-
Dairy products- Meat, butter, ghee
Meat and fish, pork and eggs.
• Vegetable Sources:-
Cooking oils- Sunflower oil, Mustard oil,
Ground nut oil
Fats from other vegetable sources.
40
41. FUNCTION OF LIPIDS
• storage form of energy.
• Important dietary components because of their high energy value and also
because of fat-soluble vitamins and the essential fatty acids contained in the fat
natural food.
• Structural components of bio membranes.
• Serve as thermal insulators in the subcutaneous tissue around certain organs.
• Nonpolar lipids act as electrical insulators, allowing rapid propagation of
depolarization waves along myelinated nerves. 41
42. FUNCTIONS OF LIPIDS(CONTD.)
• Provide shape and contour to the body.
• Act as metabolic regulators.
• Combination of lipid and protein(lipoprotein) are important cellular,
constituents , occurring both in cell membrane and in the
mitochondria, and serving also as the mean of transporting lipids in
the blood.
42
43. CLASSIFICATION OF LIPIDS
1:- Simple Lipids:- Esters of fatty acids with various alcohols.
• Fats:- Esters of fatty acids with glycerol. Oils are fats in liquid state.
• Waxes:- Esters of fatty acids with high molecular weight monohydric
alcohol.
43
44. CONTINUED
2:- Complex Lipids:- Esters of fatty acids containing groups in addition to an
alcohol and a fatty acid.
• Phospholipids:- Lipids containing in addition to fatty acid and alcohol, a
phosphoric acid group.
• Glycolipid:- Lipid containing a fatty acid, sphingosine and carbohydrate.
Other complex lipids such as sulfo-lipids and amino lipids. Lipoproteins may also
consider in this group.
44
45. CONTINUED
3:- Precursor and Derived lipids:- These are:-
• Fatty acids.
• Glycerol.
• Steroids.
• Other alcohols.
• Fatty aldehyde.
• Ketone bodies.
• Hydrocarbon, lipid-soluble vitamins, and hormones. 45
46. FATTY ACIDS
• Fatty Acids are aliphatic carboxylic acids.
• Have the general formula R-(CH2)n-COOH.
• They occur mainly as esters in natural fats and oils but do occur in the
unesterified form as free fatty acid, a transport form found in the plasma.
• Fatty acids that occur in natural fats are usually straight-chain derivatives
containing an even number of carbon atoms.
• The chain may be saturated (containing no double bonds) or un saturated
(containing one or more double bonds). 46
47. CLASSIFICATION OF FATTY ACID
Fatty acids can be classified in many ways:-
According to the nature of hydrophobic chain
• Saturated fatty acids.
• Unsaturated fatty acids.
• Branched chain fatty acids.
• Substituted fatty acids.
Saturated fatty acids do not contain double bond, while unsaturated fatty acids
contain double bond.
47
48. BIOLOGICAL IMPORTANCE OF FATTY ACIDS
• Fatty acids are the building blocks of dietary fats. The human body stores such
fats in the form of triglycerides.
• Fatty acids are also required for the formation of membrane lipids such as
phospholipids and glycolipids
• They are required for the esterification of cholesterol to form cholesteryl esters.
• They act as fuel molecules and are oxidized to produce energy.
48
49. DIGESTION IN SMALL INTESTINE
• Major site of fat digestion.
• Effective digestion due to the presence of pancreatic lipase and bile salt.
• Bile salts act as effective emulsifying agents for fats.
• Secretion of pancreatic lipase is stimulated by:-
• Passage of acid gastric contents into the duodenum.
• By secretion of secretin, Cholecystokinin and Pancreozymin, the gastro intestinal
hormones.
49
50. ABSORPTION OF LIPIDS
• Glycerol, short and medium chain fatty acids ( Chain length less than 14
carbons) are directly absorbed from the intestinal lumen in to the portal vein and
taken to liver for further utilization.
• Long chain fatty acids, free cholesterol and beta acyl glycerol together with bile
salts form micelles.
50
54. CONCLUSION:
• Lipids is very important because of various functions it plays
• Optimum and balanced amount is recommended.
• Its deficiency can cause severe diseases.
• Excess of everything is bad, High level of lipids is major cause of obesity, high
blood pressure and CVDs.
