TWO CATEGORIES OD NUTRIENTS
MACRO AND MICRO
are the main nutrients that make up the foods we eat.
MACRONUTRIENTS
are essential elements needed by life in small quantities.
MICRONUTRIENTS
MACRONUTRIENTS CONTAIN?
CARBOHYDRATE, PROTEIN AND FAT
MICRONUTRIENT CONTAINS?
VITAMINS AND MINERALS
ORGANIC COMPOUND CONTAINING CHO
CARBOHYDRATES
CARBOHYDRATES DERIVED FROM THE GREEK WORD
SACCHARIDE
SACCHARIDES
MEANING STARCHES AND SUGARS FOUND IN PLANTS
BUILDING BLOCKS ARE CALLED
MONOSACCHARIDE
considered as the simplest form of sugar of sugar which is small molecules that require little or no digestion before they can be used by the body and the source is the digestive end product of lactose hydrolysis
MONOSACCHARIDE
3 TYPES OF MONOSACCHARIDE
GLUCOSE, FRUCTOSE AND GALACTOSE
which is primarily “physiologic sugar” or “blood sugar”, “dextrose”, “grape sugar”, principal form used by the body, moderately sweet sugar works for the body’s brain, nerve cells, RBC and stores last for only hours
GLUCOSE
is the process where protein is converted to glucose.
GLUCONEOGENESIS
is the process converting lipids to glucose for energy use
KETOSIS
is considered as fruit sugar, the sweetest of all sugar, “levulose” and sources are ripe fruits and honey.
FRUCTOSE
is not found in nature and not found in free foods, but produced from lactose (milk sugar) by digestion and is converted to glucose.
GALACTOSE
is the term to infants born with an inability to metabolize galactose
GALACTOSEMIA
which has two sugar molecules OR DOUBLE-SUGARS
DISACCHARIDES
considered as the ”cane sugar”, “table sugar”, “beet sugar”
SUCROSE
considered as ”malt sugar”, derived from the digestion of starch
MALTOSE
known as milk sugar, least sweet among sugars
LACTOSE
contains many monosaccharide linked together
POLYSACCHARIDE
the storage form of carbohydrates in plants, supply energy for a long period of time and the sources are cereal grains, rice, wheat.
STARCH
not found in free foods but the intermediate product of starch digestion with food source of toasted bread + application of dry heat.
DEXTRIN
an animal starch, storage form of CHO in the body found in the liver and muscle.
GLYCOGEN
Also known as Lipids, considerer as organic nutrient containing C, H, O attached in a glycerol base.
