Fat utilization occurs when fat cells break down stored triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol. The fatty acids are then used by muscle cells to produce energy for muscle contraction. By combining fat mobilization and utilization through diet and exercise, the body loses body fat at a rate of about 10% per month until a natural plateau is reached. The Plourdé Institute uses statistical analysis to predict this plateau and maximize fat loss.

Basal metabolic rate(BMR)
The document discusses basal metabolic rate (BMR), which is the minimum amount of energy required to sustain vital functions like heart and brain function at rest. The normal BMR for an adult is 24Kcal/Kg body weight/day. Several factors can affect BMR, including age, sex, temperature, exercise, starvation, fever, and thyroid hormones. BMR is measured using the Benedict-Roth Basal Metabolism Apparatus, which determines the volume of oxygen consumed by a subject at physical and mental rest over 2-6 minutes.
Disorders of carbohydrate metabolism
This document discusses lactose intolerance, including its causes, symptoms, and diagnosis. Lactose intolerance is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme lactase, which breaks down lactose in the small intestine. Undigested lactose passes to the colon, where bacteria ferment it causing symptoms like bloating, diarrhea and nausea. The H2 breath test is an accurate way to diagnose lactose intolerance by measuring increased hydrogen levels in breath after ingesting lactose. Management involves taking lactase supplements, using lactose-reduced products, or limiting dairy.
Energy values of foods
This document discusses energy and calorie balance. It defines energy as the capacity to do work and calories as a unit used to measure energy. Carbohydrates, proteins and fats provide energy, while vitamins, minerals and water do not. The document explains that calories consumed must equal calories expended to maintain weight, while consuming more calories than expended leads to weight gain and consuming fewer calories leads to weight loss. Factors like basal metabolic rate, physical activity and thermic effect of food determine calories expended. Maintaining calorie and nutrient balance is important for health.

It describes the digestion, absorption, metabolism and functions of fats, as well as deficiencies from too little or too much fat. Cholesterol is also discussed.
Digestion & absorption of carbohydrate
This document summarizes the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates. It begins by outlining the types of carbohydrates present in the diet and how they are broken down by enzymes into simpler monosaccharides. It then details the specific enzymes involved in digesting carbohydrates at each step, from salivary amylase in the mouth to pancreatic amylase and disaccharidases in the small intestine. Absorption of monosaccharides like glucose, galactose and fructose occurs via active transport in the intestinal epithelium. Clinical examples like lactose intolerance are also discussed.
NUTRITIONAL IMPORTANCE OF CARBOHYDRATES
The document discusses carbohydrates and their role in the human body. It states that carbohydrates are the chief source of energy, providing 60-70% of the body's daily caloric needs. Carbohydrates are grouped into those that are utilized by the body (like glucose and glycogen) and those that are not (like cellulose). The document also outlines carbohydrates' role in fueling muscle work, synthesizing other compounds, and regulating blood glucose levels. It provides a table comparing the glycemic index of different foods.
Digestion &absorbtion of carbohydates
Carbohydrates are digested in the mouth by salivary amylase and in the small intestine by pancreatic amylase and intestinal enzymes. These enzymes break down starches and sugars into monosaccharides like glucose, galactose and fructose, which are then absorbed into the bloodstream. Some common disorders of carbohydrate digestion include lactose intolerance, due to a deficiency of lactase, and sucrase deficiency, due to a lack of the enzyme sucrase. These disorders can cause abdominal symptoms like cramps and diarrhea.
DIGESTION & ABSORPTION OF LIPIDS
Lipids undergo a multi-step digestion and absorption process in the gastrointestinal tract. Dietary lipids are emulsified and broken down into smaller components like fatty acids and monoacylglycerols by lingual and gastric lipases in the stomach and pancreatic lipase in the small intestine. Bile salts produced by the liver play a key role in emulsification. The products of digestion are incorporated into micelles and absorbed by intestinal cells. Inside cells, fatty acids are reassembled into triglycerides and packaged into chylomicrons that enter the lymphatic system and bloodstream for transport to tissues. Defects in digestion, emulsification, or absorption can impair this process.

Dietary fats
Dr. Shailendra Meena presents information on lipids and fats. Key points include:
- Fats are insoluble in water and function to provide insulation, energy storage, and carry fat-soluble vitamins. Most body fat is stored in adipose tissue.
- Dietary fats are composed of fatty acids, triglycerides, phospholipids, and cholesterol. Fat molecules contain one alcohol and three fatty acids.
- Fats provide energy, insulation, and carry fat-soluble vitamins. They also aid nutrient absorption and provide a sense of fullness.
- Sources of dietary fats include animal foods like butter and plant oils. Fats are classified based on biochemical composition and nutritional significance
Proteins simplified
Proteins are macromolecules made up of amino acids that are essential for human life. They are needed for growth, tissue repair, enzyme and hormone production. The building blocks of proteins are 22 amino acids, some of which must be obtained through diet. Common sources of protein include meat, eggs, dairy, grains, legumes and nuts. Protein requirements vary based on age, gender and activity level but adults generally need 0.8-1 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily. Proteins are classified based on structure, solubility and nutritional properties and perform many important functions in the human body.
Absorption of carbohydrates ppt
Carbohydrates are digested into monosaccharides like glucose, fructose, and galactose which are then absorbed in the small intestine. Glucose accounts for about 80% of absorbed monosaccharides and is actively transported into intestinal cells via sodium-glucose transporters, using the sodium gradient as an energy source. Galactose absorption is similar to glucose while fructose absorption occurs via facilitated diffusion without requiring sodium or energy. Absorption rates vary between sugars with galactose absorbing most rapidly, followed by glucose, then fructose and pentoses absorbing slowest. Health of the intestinal mucosa and various hormones can also impact carbohydrate absorption rates.

Metabolism of Fats
The document summarizes lipid metabolism and fat oxidation. Lipids are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol during digestion. These products are absorbed and transported to the liver via the lymphatic and circulatory systems. In the liver, fatty acids can be used to form phospholipids or stored as fat. Fatty acids undergo beta-oxidation in the cell to produce acetyl-CoA for the Krebs cycle and ATP generation through oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidation of fatty acids yields more energy than carbohydrates.
Digestion of carbohydrates
Carbohydrate digestion is a mechanical and chemical breakdown of polysaccharides into monosaccharides like glucose, galactose and fructose. It involves enzymes that hydrolyze bonds between sugar molecules. Starch and glycogen are broken down by salivary and pancreatic enzymes into smaller molecules as they move through the mouth, stomach and small intestine. Final digestion occurs via disaccharidases in the jejunum wall, absorbing the monosaccharides. Deficiencies in these enzymes can cause osmotic diarrhea due to undigested carbohydrates fermenting in the colon.

Lipid metabolism
Lipid metabolism is the synthesis and degradation of lipids in cells.
It involves the breakdown or storage of fats for energy and the synthesis of structural and functional lipids, such as those involved in the construction of cell membranes.
In animals, these fats are obtained from food or synthesized by the liver.
Ketosis
Ketosis occurs when the body needs to break down body fat for energy due to low glucose levels. This produces ketones as byproducts. Ketosis takes place when there is insufficient glucose available, such as during low-carb diets, lack of insulin, or excessive alcohol use. Very high ketone levels can make the blood acidic and cause the dangerous ketoacidosis condition. Ketosis is treated by replacing fluids, electrolytes, and administering insulin therapy to reverse the processes that caused it.
Ketone bodies Generation and utilization
Ketone bodies (acetone, acetoacetate, beta-hydroxybutyrate) are produced in the liver through a process called ketogenesis when fatty acids are broken down. They can be used by tissues like muscle and heart as an energy source, especially during periods of low glucose such as fasting or diabetes. Ketone bodies are converted back to acetyl-CoA in tissues through a series of reactions. High levels of ketone bodies can cause ketoacidosis, lowering the pH of the blood, which is dangerous and requires treatment with insulin.
Lipoproteins
This document defines and classifies different types of lipoproteins. It discusses lipoproteins' roles in transporting lipids like triglycerides and cholesterol through the bloodstream. The main lipoproteins described are chylomicrons, VLDL, IDL, LDL, and HDL. Chylomicrons and VLDL transport lipids from the intestine and liver to tissues. Their triglycerides are broken down by lipoprotein lipase, forming chylomicron/VLDL remnants taken up by the liver. LDL transports cholesterol to tissues, while HDL transports excess cholesterol from tissues back to the liver in reverse transport.
Carbohydrate
Carbohydrates are an important source of energy. They include sugars, starches, and fiber. Sugars are small, simple carbohydrates like glucose, fructose, and galactose. Starches are complex carbohydrates made of linked glucose units. Fiber is a type of carbohydrate that the body cannot digest. The body breaks down carbohydrates into glucose for energy or stores them as glycogen in the liver and muscles. A balanced diet should obtain about 40-60% of calories from carbohydrates to fuel the body and brain. Too little or too much carbohydrate intake can impair health.

Carbohydrates (Carbs) - GCSE Biology
Carbohydrates are compounds made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. There are three main types: monosaccharides like glucose are simple sugars; disaccharides like sucrose are two monosaccharides bonded together; and polysaccharides like starch and glycogen are long chains of monosaccharides. Carbohydrates provide the body with its primary source of energy and are found naturally in foods like grains, fruits, vegetables, and sugars. A deficiency in carbohydrates can lead to hypoglycemia, ketosis, acidosis, weight gain, and decreased energy levels. Carbohydrates can be tested for using Benedict's solution, which changes color depending on the presence of reducing sugars.
Ketone Bodies.pptx
Ketone bodies are produced by the liver and used peripherally as an energy source when glucose is not readily available.
Lipoprotein
Lipoproteins are biochemical assemblies that transport hydrophobic lipid molecules in water and blood. They consist of a phospholipid and cholesterol outer shell with apolipoproteins embedded that stabilize the complex and determine its function. The main types of lipoproteins are chylomicrons, VLDL, IDL, LDL, and HDL, which differ in size, density, and lipid and protein composition. They enable the transport and metabolism of triglycerides, cholesterol, and other lipids throughout the body.
Nutrition-biochemistry
Nutrition is the study of food and how it nourishes the body and influences health. It covers nutrients like carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and water. Nutrients provide energy, build cells, regulate processes, and prevent diseases. Nutrition is important for overall wellness. Dietary guidelines like the DRI and RDA help determine daily nutrient needs to support optimal health. Nutrients are broken down and absorbed differently, and all contribute to various bodily functions.

To get ripped quickly requires focusing on both diet and exercise. Diet is 70% of the process, requiring a calorie-controlled diet of 2000-2500 calories per day with plenty of lean protein. Exercise must be challenging to exhaust muscles and confuse them through varied, high-intensity interval workouts. Both aerobic and anaerobic exercise are needed, but simply training for endurance will not build significant muscle. Consuming protein shakes can further support muscle growth and recovery.
Atkins Diet The Flaws
The document discusses several topics related to dieting and exercise. It mentions that machine-based cardio can be less stressful on the body than high-impact exercises. It recommends alternating machine types for variety. It also discusses following a high-carbohydrate diet for endurance training and eating smaller, more frequent meals to stay full. Strength training can be done at home or outdoors using basic equipment. Body fat percentage is best measured using specialized methods rather than scales. Some foods to avoid on a low-pH diet are meat, coffee, beer, peanuts and pickled vegetables. Keto diets may be suitable for some but carbohydrates are generally the preferred energy source.
20 effective tips to lose belly fat
Belly fat is more than a nuisance that makes your clothes feel tight.
It’s seriously harmful.
This type of fat — referred to as visceral fat — is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other conditions (1).
Many health organizations use body mass index (BMI) to classify weight and predict the risk of metabolic disease.
However, this is misleading, as people with excess belly fat are at an increased risk even if they look thin (2Trusted Source).
Though losing fat from this area can be difficult, there are several things you can do to reduce excess abdominal fat.
Here are 20 effective tips to lose belly fat, backed by scientific studies.
weight lose tips
The document provides tips for losing weight through diet and exercise. It recommends reducing refined carbs and replacing them with whole grains or a low carb diet to curb appetite and lower calorie intake. Meals should include a protein, healthy fat, vegetables, and complex carbs. While low carb diets may aid short-term weight loss, long term effects are unknown, so a reduced calorie diet focusing on whole grains and proteins may be more sustainable. Regular exercise, especially weight lifting, can further aid weight loss by burning calories and preventing metabolic slowdown.

Optimized Irvingia contains ingredients that target digestive enzymes involved in breaking down carbohydrates and controlling blood sugar and insulin levels after meals. The manual outlines a nine pillar approach to weight loss that includes restoring insulin sensitivity and hormone balance, controlling carbohydrate absorption, increasing metabolism, managing stress, improving sleep, and following a reduced calorie diet and exercise plan. The comprehensive program addresses the multiple factors involved in weight gain as people age in order to achieve substantial and sustained weight loss.
Ch7 Energy Balance and Weight Control
This document provides an overview of energy balance and weight control. It discusses factors that influence basal metabolism and physical activity, and how they impact energy needs and expenditure. The document estimates calorie needs and defines healthy versus unhealthy body weights using BMI. It also examines causes of obesity and strategies for successful weight loss and maintenance through calorie control, physical activity, and behavior modification.
Weight loss 6
Weight loss occurs when calories expended exceed calories consumed. Popular diets often fail because the body senses starvation and slows metabolism. Maintaining a healthy weight requires lifestyle changes that increase metabolism over time. The document provides strategies for healthy eating and weight management, including eating smaller meals 5-6 times per day with protein, vegetables and controlled carbohydrates; emphasizing whole foods; staying hydrated; and being mindful of portion sizes.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

What Is Fat Utilization?
- 1. What Is Fat Utilization? By: The Plourde Institute
- 2. What Is Fat Utilization? The Plourdé Institute employs evidence-based principles from nutrition science and exercise physiology to develop individualized weight-loss regimens. A cornerstone of The Plourdé Institute’s method is exercise that boosts the body’s ability to convert fat to energy, a process known as fatty acid utilization.
- 3. What Is Fat Utilization? Fat utilization occurs when fat cells degrade storage fat called triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol. The fatty acids are used by muscle cells to produce adenosine triphosphate, which drives the muscle contraction. The combination of a calorically neutral diet and metabolically controlled exercise encourages the body to utilize stored fat rather than other energy sources.
- 4. What Is Fat Utilization? By combining the mobilization of fatty acids with the utilization of fatty acids, body fat weight loss occurs at mathematically linear rate of approximately 10% per month until a natural biological plateau in fat weight loss occurs. Plourdé uses a statistical tool called a 95% confidence interval to predict a body fat weight loss plateau before it ever happens. For men, there is a 95% chance that the plateau occurs somewhere between a 71% and 80% reduction in body fat weight from peak fat weight. For women, there is a 95% chance that the plateau occurs somewhere between a 61% and 73% reduction in body fat weight loss from peak fat weight. These outcomes are unmatched throughout the world.
