TESU BIO-208 The Science of Nutrition
defining problem; formulating question; setting criteria for evidence; evaluating evidence; summarizing
evidence and making decisions; specifying strength of evidence required for decision; disseminating
findings - evidence-based approach to nutrition
backbone of life because it can bond with four other elements to form long chains and make more
complex macromolecules - carbon
obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, some cancers, osteoporosis - diet-related
conditions and diseases
physical, mental, and social aspects of health - health triangle
an abnormal condition that affects the health of an organism, and is characterized by specific signs and
symptoms - disease
energy and fiber source - carbohydrates
structural building blocks - protein
energy storage, cell repair - fat
solvent and lubricant, transport of nutrients, temperature regulation - water
involved in chemical reactions - vitamins
involved in enzyme functions, nerve impulses, bone structure - minerals
carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins; can be metabolically processed into cellular energy; energy comes
from their chemical bonds - macronutrients
unit of measurement of food energy - calorie
one thousand calories, denoted with a C - kilocalorie
a macronutrient that does not yield calories; body is 60% - water
made of C, H, and O; 4 C/g - carbohydrates
simple sugars - sucrose and glucose - fast-releasing carbs
branched or unbranched chains of simple sugars - slow-releasing carbs
can be stored in the body for future use; in humans: glycogen; in plants: starch - glucose
cannot be digested by human body; may be broken down by gut bacteria - fiber
also composed of C, H, and O but insoluble in water; store energy, serve as cell membrane, surround and
protect organs, aid temperature regulation; 9 C/g - lipids
consist of chains of amino acids, composed of C, H, O, and N; "workhorses of life"; provide structure and
contribute to chemical reactions; over 100,000 types exist in body; 4 C/g - proteins
include vitamins and minerals; don't make energy but assist in the process as being part of enzymes
(coenzymes) to catalyze chemical reactions in the body - micronutrients
