energy requirement and energy expenditure.pptSehar80
The document discusses human energy requirements and energy expenditure. It explains that the body uses most of its daily energy supply for basal metabolic needs like circulation, respiration and digestion. Additional energy is used for voluntary activities and exercise. Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins provide nutrients that are converted to ATP to fuel these energy needs and requirements vary throughout life stages. Total energy requirement is calculated as basal energy expenditure plus physical activity plus the thermic effect of food.
This document discusses the definitions and roles of nutrition and nutrients in relation to health. It defines nutrition as the science of food and nutrients and their interactions and balance in the body in relation to health and disease. Health is defined as complete physical, mental and social well-being, not just the absence of disease. The nutritional status of one's body is influenced by the foods consumed and their nutrient contents. Intakes of essential nutrients between deficient and excessive levels can impact health and toxicity. Maintaining adequate nutrient intake through diet is important for health.
Beta glucan -What is Beta Glucan?
Beta glucan is a large molecule, known as polysaccharide, made up of smaller suagr molecules linked together. Since the 1960s, the body of beta glucan research has been growing with more and more emphasis on specific conditions and illnesses.
Not all beta glucans are created equal. Beta glucan from different sources have different health benefits. There are many kinds of beta glucans, such as oat beta glucan, barkey beta glucan, mushroom beta glucan, black yeast beta glucan, baker's yeast beta glucan, etc.
Yeast beta glucan such as black yeast beta glucan is known to have the widest spectrum of health benefits, including as dietary fibre, heart health, and immune system modulator.
Protein quality,Assesment method,Requirement,Protien food source & Deficiency...MalihaQuader1
This document discusses protein quality and methods used to assess it. Protein quality refers to the digestibility and balance of essential amino acids. Several methods are described to evaluate protein quality, including the protein efficiency ratio, biological value, amino acid score, digestibility coefficient, and protein digestibility corrected amino acid score. Protein requirements vary depending on lifestyle and activity levels. Good sources of high-quality protein include meat, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy, nuts, seeds, beans, and lentils. Protein deficiency can cause issues like edema, impaired mental health, marasmus, kwashiorkor, organ failure, and a weakened immune system.

This document discusses anti-nutritional factors found in foods and methods for reducing them. It begins by defining anti-nutrients as natural or synthetic compounds that interfere with nutrient absorption and can be toxic. The three main types are classified as anti-proteins, anti-minerals, and anti-vitamins. Common anti-nutrients in foods include lectins, phytates, tannins and oxalates. While anti-nutrients can inhibit nutrient utilization, some may have benefits like antioxidant effects. Soaking, sprouting, heating and combinations of methods can inactivate many anti-nutrients by making them water soluble or degrading them. The document emphasizes that anti-nutrients should be considered based on individual tolerance levels and eaten
Energy balance occurs when energy intake from food matches energy expenditure by the body. Energy expenditure consists of basal metabolic rate (BMR), the energy required for basic body functions, thermic effect of activity and food, and adaptive thermogenesis. BMR accounts for 50-75% of total energy expenditure and can be estimated using formulas factoring in weight, height, age, and gender. Tracking energy intake and expenditure helps determine if a person has a surplus, deficit, or balance of calories.
The new food guide is the plate method. Used for years to simply recommendations for healthy eating, it is now the most upto date guide for the American meal planning guide. Emphasis is on whole grain, lean meats, fruits and vegetables consumed in small portions with dairy options such as yogurt, low fat milk and cheese. Simple in design yet effective if the consumer remembers to keep half the plate veggies with fruit and the other half with whole grains and lean meats such as seafood, beans, tofu, poultry or lean cuts of beef or pork.
The document discusses energy balance and factors that influence total daily energy expenditure and intake. It explains that energy balance occurs when energy intake equals energy expenditure, and that a positive or negative balance can affect body weight over time. It also outlines the components of total daily energy expenditure, including basal metabolic rate, physical activity, and the thermic effect of food. Key factors that can influence each of these components are described.
This document discusses vitamins, herbs, and nutritional supplements. It provides information on the 13 essential vitamins, examples of popular herbs like milk thistle and ginger and their uses, and defines nutritional supplements. The document emphasizes obtaining vitamins through food sources, checking with a healthcare provider before taking supplements, and considering holistic health with supplements.
The document provides information on the importance of a balanced diet for toddlers and the specific vitamins and minerals that are essential for their growth and development. It discusses that a balanced diet with a variety of foods from the main food groups supplies toddlers with all the nutrients needed. Some key vitamins and minerals discussed include calcium for bone health, vitamin C for immune system support, B vitamins for energy conversion, iodine for brain development, and zinc for growth. Food sources for each are also listed. The document emphasizes establishing healthy eating habits early and limiting foods high in fat, sugar, salt and certain fish for toddlers.
The "Nutrition Basics: Macronutrients" lesson will introduce and explain the three most calorie-dense foods-- fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. You will get an understanding of what most foods are made of and why they are important.
The document discusses the Western diet and lifestyle, which is characterized by high intake of red meat, sugary foods, processed foods and low intake of fruits and vegetables. This diet and lifestyle leads to poor health outcomes like high blood pressure, blood sugar and body fat. The Paleo diet aims to emulate the diet of the Paleolithic era by focusing on lean meats, fish, fruits, vegetables and nuts and excluding dairy, grains and legumes. While the Paleo diet may provide health benefits like reduced inflammation and improved cholesterol, it can be expensive and restrictive to eliminate many food groups long-term. More research is still needed on its long term effects.
Nutrition is the scientific study of food and its relation to health. There are six categories of nutrients that provide structure, regulate processes, and supply energy. Basal metabolic rate is the minimum calories needed daily and varies by factors like age, weight, height, and activity level. Metabolism refers to all biochemical processes that allow the body to grow and maintain itself. Nutrition assessments evaluate eating patterns, intake, health factors, and risks. BMI is a measure of weight adjusted for height that is used to indicate weight status and risk for diseases.
The document discusses macronutrients and their roles in nutrition. It focuses on carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Carbohydrates provide the body's main source of energy and include sugars, starches, and fibers. Proteins are needed for tissue repair, hormone production, and other functions. Fats are also an essential nutrient and provide energy storage, though some types like saturated fats are less healthy. The document outlines food sources of these macronutrients and their digestion and roles in the body.
This document provides an introduction to nutrition, covering key topics such as the composition of the body, metabolism, nutrients, calories, dietary recommendations, and malnutrition. It explains that the body is made up of constantly changing atoms, molecules, cells, tissues and organs that require nutrients. The six main nutrients are carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and water, which the body obtains from food and uses through metabolic processes like anabolism and catabolism. Nutritional status depends on using food to meet physiological needs, while balanced diets supply all essential nutrients in proper proportions.

Food additives, excess sugar, pesticides, herbicides, trans fats
3. Food Additives
Excitotoxins
Glutamate, aspartate and L-cysteine
Found under a myriad of names
Artificial sweeteners
Aspartame, acesulfame K, saccharin, sucralose
Artificial colors
Interactions w/excitotoxins
4. Glutamate
Glutamate – a non-essential, negatively
charged AA from diet
The most ubiquitous excitatory
neurotransmitter in mammals – very important!
• Functions all over body (gut, immune
system, pancreas, neuromuscular junction and brain)
• Precursor to the inhibitory neurotransmitter
GABA
Disordered glutaminergic neurotransmission
has been implicated in FM
Excess glutamate can lead to excitotoxicity
• Also causes oxidative stress
Bound vs free glutamate
• Meat versus soy sauce
5. Hidden Excitotoxins
Acesulfame-K (Sunett, Sweet One)
Aspartame (Equal, NutraSweet, Canderel)
Autolyzed yeast (or autolyzed yeast extract)
Barley malt extract
Bouillon
Broth
Calcium caseinate
Carrageenan
Flavoring
Gelatin
Hydrolyzed corn, wheat, or soy protein
L-cysteine
Malt extract
Malt flavoring
Modified food starch (any type )
Monopotassium glutamate
Monosodium glutamate (MSG)
Natural flavoring
Nutritional yeast
Plant protein extract
Saccharin (Sweet’N Low)
Seasoning
Smoke flavoring
Sodium benzoate
Sodium caseinate
Sodium guanylate
Sodium inosinate
Soy (only soybean oil /soy lecithin are OK to eat)
Soy protein concentrate
Soy protein isolate
Spices (this term can hide other ingredients)
Stock
Sucralose (Splenda)
Textured protein
Whey protein concentrate
Whey protein isolate
Yeast extract
I also recommend avoiding all artificial
colors, artificial flavors, artificial
sweeteners
7. Focus on REAL Food
Real Food – Food that is not highly
processed
Low in additives, no trans fats
High in nutrients
High in fiber
8. What Nutritional Factors are Important
for Optimal Glutamatergic Function?
Adequate protein and low sugar
Antioxidants - Vitamins C & E
Vitamin D
Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Magnesium
Zinc
9. Protein and Sugar
Protein deficiency causes increased susceptibility to
excitotoxicity
Has been linked to increased prevalence of epilepsy in
developing countries
Excess sugar in the diet also increases susceptibility to
excitotoxicity
Ketogenic diet is used in epilepsy to counter this effect
Artificial sweeteners are not the answer!
Hundreds of times sweeter than sugar
Cause increased cravings for sugar (& alter taste Rs)
Can also cause increased excitotoxicity themselves
10. Vitamin C
Synthesized in all green plants
Potent antioxidant
• Protects against oxidative stress
Vitamin C saturates the brain first
Important for cartilage formation & immune
function, improves endothelial function & lowers BP
12. Vitamin D
VS.
Synthesized from cholesterol
• Inhibited by cholesterol lowering meds
• Also inhibited by older age, northern
latitude, season, sunscreen, clothing, dark skin, obesity
Important for calcium regulation, immune function,
serotonin synthesis
Reduces inflammation & protects against excitotoxicity
13. Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Important in maintaining fluidity of cell membranes
to support cell-to-cell communication
Protects against excitotoxicity
Prevents inflammation
Alpha-linolenic acid is the basic
essential omega-3 fatty acid in the diet
• Found mainly in walnuts, flax seeds, and oils
DHA
• Found in fish and fish oils
• Farmed vs. wild fish
14. Magnesium
A very important mineral!
75% of the population does not
meet the RDA of 420 mg
May be lost from GI tract in GI
disorders
Stress can alter magnesium
levels
Deficiency causes:
Neuromuscular excitability,
high BP, dizziness,
constipation, seizures,
tachycardia
16. Zinc
Antioxidant Function
Can block NMDA receptors, protecting against excitoxicity
Deficiency caused by diets high in phytates and low in meat
Phytates are
high in seeds,
bran, beans,
& grains
Soaking helps
lessen phytate
load
17. Prebiotics - Fiber
Benefits
• Mucosal Barrier
• Reduction in bowel pH
• Synthesis ofVitamin K
• Production of short chain FAs
• Lowering of Cholesterol
• Improved glucose tolerance
• Gut-brain axis
18. Probiotics -Yogurt
Diarrhea/Antibiotic Use
Greek yogurt
Supplies beneficial probiotics (bacteria)
High in protein
Can be consumed by those who are lactose intolerant
Activia is not needed (and contains additives)
Plain or vanilla recommended
Can add:
Granola, wheat germ
Fresh or dried fruit
Nuts, honey
Lemon/orange cod liver oil
