Nutrition Basics : Macronutrients
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.
Vitamins and minerals
Vitamins and minerals are essential micronutrients that serve important functions in the body. Vitamins are organic compounds needed in small amounts that can be divided into water and fat soluble categories. Minerals are inorganic elements that are classified as major or trace minerals needed for processes like bone and tissue formation. The document provides details on the functions, sources, and deficiency effects of important vitamins like A, D, C and B vitamins and minerals like calcium, iron, and iodine. Fortification of foods can help address micronutrient deficiencies in populations.
Nutrional assesment
1. Nutrition is important for maintaining health, preventing disease, and supporting healing from illness or injury. Nutritional assessment involves anthropometric measurements, biochemical analysis, evaluating clinical and dietary information, and considering environmental factors.
2. Anthropometric measurements include weight, height, body mass index, fat folds, midarm circumference, and bioelectrical impedance analysis. Biochemical analysis can help diagnose micronutrient deficiencies like iron, vitamin A, and iodine deficiencies.
3. Dietary, medical, family, and social history are collected, and environmental factors like ability to obtain and prepare food are considered. This comprehensive assessment evaluates nutritional status and identifies risks or deficiencies.
Principles of nutrition
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 & nutrition
Presentation covers the chapter in CBSE curriculum in detail about forms of nutrients and where we can get those.
PPT can be coupled with relevant worksheets from the syllabus.
Fats
Fats are a type of lipid that provide energy but do not dissolve in water. They are made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Fats can come from animal sources like meat and dairy or plant sources like seeds, fruits and nuts. There are different types of fats including saturated, monounsaturated, polyunsaturated and trans fats. A balanced diet should limit saturated fats and include unsaturated fats to support health and reduce disease risk.
Nutrition for adolescents
This document provides a top 10 guide to important nutrients for adolescent nutrition and health.

Basic Nutrition
Nutrition is the study of food and how it nourishes the body. It is important for wellness and preventing disease. The major nutrients that provide energy and building blocks for the body are carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water. Nutrients must be digested, absorbed, and metabolized by the body. Maintaining good nutrition involves eating a balanced diet from the five major food groups according to guidelines like MyPlate.
Meal planning
Meal planning requires considering nutritional needs, food preferences, budget, and cultural factors. It aims to provide a balanced diet through selecting foods from major groups like cereals, pulses, vegetables, fruits, dairy, eggs, meat and fats. Planning meals with representation from each food group helps fulfill nutritional requirements for health. Factors like nutrient composition, preparation methods, and traditional uses are important in understanding the nutritional value of different foods.
Food pyramid presentation
The document provides information and recommendations about eating a healthy, balanced diet according to the food pyramid guidelines.

Dietary fibres, cereals and grains
This document discusses dietary fibers, cereals, and grains. It defines dietary fiber as a complex carbohydrate that is not digested in the small intestine. It then classifies fibers into insoluble and soluble, describing the main types of each. Insoluble fibers like cellulose add bulk and speed food movement through the digestive tract, while soluble fibers like pectin and gums form gels to slow digestion. Resistant starches are also discussed. The document lists several foods and their fiber contents, and describes the roles of fiber in health, such as reducing cholesterol and blood sugar levels. It concludes with safe fiber intake recommendations and some potential issues with excess fiber consumption.
Diet counselling for obesitty
This document provides information on diet counselling for reducing obesity risks. It defines obesity as excessive body fat accumulation of at least 20% higher than ideal weight. Obesity is a serious health issue that increases risks of diseases like diabetes and heart disease. Dietary treatments for obesity include low-calorie diets, meal replacements, very low-calorie diets, and consideration of macronutrient composition, portion size, energy density and satiety. Behavioral changes like eating at set meal times and preparing more home-cooked meals can also help reduce risks of obesity.
Dietary Guidelines Presentation
The document summarizes the key points of the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The guidelines placed a new emphasis on maintaining a healthy weight through the lifespan and providing proper nutrition for children. It acknowledged that broader food and physical activity environments influence choices and recommended coordinating across all sectors to improve environments. The guidelines also shifted to providing general dietary guidance rather than specific quantities and included research on behaviors like breakfast, snacking, and screen time.
