(nutrition basics) 1. Understand the concept of nutrient density and state how it can be used to determine the healthfulness of foods - correct answer -foods rich in nutrients relative to their energy content (calories), usually whole foods -higher nutrients and lower calories=nutrient dense 2. Identify the six classes of nutrients. Recall the energy yield (kcal/gram) for carbohydrate, protein, fat, and alcohol. Be able to do simple calculations using these values. - correct answer hyd...
