vitamins
- 0kcal/g
- Compounds that are essential for normal physiologic processes in the body
- vitamins were late discovered because they thought the diseases from vitamin deficiency where by bacterial infection

abnormalities, skin disorders, join pain, bone fractures,birth defects
-
D
- D2
- plants and yeast (ergocalciferol)
- deficiency= bowed legs (bones)
- toxicity=hypercalcemia or high blood calcium levels can lead to the calcification of soft tissues.
- D3
- animals (cholecalciferol)
-
E
- alfa, beta, gamma, delta
- deficiency = neurological problems
- toxicity=decreased blood coagulation, hemorrhagic stroke
-
K
- phylloquinone
- found in Green leafy vegetables, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and asparagus
- menaquinone
- synthesized by bacteria in the colon comprises ~10% of absorbed vitamin K every day. Also found in small amounts in animal products
- menadione
- synthetic

-
monosaccharids
- glucose
- product of photosintesis mayor source of energy
- fructose
- fruits
- galactose
- not found in nature, found in disaccharide lactose
-
disaccharids
- sucrose
- table sugar: glucose+fructose
- found in plants
- maltose
- malt sugar: glucose+glucose
- found in foods, alcoholic beverages, barley
- lactose
- milk sugar: galactose+glucose
- found in milk sugar
- betabond= needs enzyme lactase to break ir= lactose intoleranse
- 4kcal/g
-
complex
-
oligosaccharids
- raffinose
- stachyose
- found in : legums, onions, broccoli, wholewheat, cabbage
- not digested lack of enzymes to digest alfa-1,6 glycosidic bond= flatulence
-
polysaccharids
- starch
- amylose
- amylopectine
- plant storage form of glucose
- glycogen
- storage form of glucose in animals
- most fibers
- beta-glucan
- gums
- pectin
- hemicellulose
- cellulose
- fernented, viscous soluble fiber
- believed to decrease blood cholesterol and sugar levels, thus also lowering
the risk of heart disease and diabetes, respectively
- non fermentable non viscous non soluble fiber
- believed to decrease the risk
of constipation and colon cancer

function
- structural
- ie: collagen.important for structure of tissues
- enzymes
- enhaces chemical reactions
- hormones
- Subtema 1
- fluid balance
- acid base balance (ph balance)
- (hemoglobin transports oxygen
- immune functions (antibodies)
- neurotransmitters
-
types of aminoacids
- essential
- 9 essential aminoacids
- cannot be sunthesized by body
- must be consume to obtain
- conditionally essencial
- certain conditions body doesnt produce it. Need to be consume
- non essencial
- produce in body
-
protein quality
- complete protein
- provide adequate amount of 9 essential aminoacids
- ie: meat, eggs, milk, fish
- incomplete protein
- missing at least one of the 9 essential aminoacids
- fruits & vegetables (except soy)
- complementary proteins
- supply missin aminoacids in the other protein
- ie: penut butter and jelly sandwich/ red beans and rice/hummus and pita
-
measures of protein quality
- biological value (BV)
- grams nitrogen retain/grams absorbed
- protein efficiency ratio (PER)
- grams of weight gained/grams of protein consumed
- chemical or aminoacid score (AAS)
- protein digestibility corrected aminoacid score (PDCAAS)
- aminoacid score x digestability
- nitrogen balance
- equilibrium
- intake=output
- no chance normal state in adults
- positive nitrogen balance
- intake>output
- increase in body protein production
- periods of growth, tissue repair or pregnancy
- negative nitrogen balance
- intake<output
- associated with malnourishment and or overtraining
-
protein energy malnutrition
- kwashiorkor
- childhood protein-energy malnutrition characterized by edema, irritability, anorexia, ulcerating dermatoses, and an enlarged liver with fatty infiltrates. Insufficient protein consumption, but with sufficient calorie intake, distinguishes it from marasmus
- marasmo
- inadequate intake of protein and calories and is characterized by emaciation
- emaciation is defined as extreme weight loss and thinness due to a loss of subcutaneous fat
