  1. INTRO TO NUTRITION

  2. History of USDA’s Food Guidance Food for Young Children 1992 1916 1940s 1970s 2005 1950s-1960s

  3. Dietary Guidelines 2010Selected Messages for Consumers • Take action on the Dietary Guidelines by making changes in these three areas… • Balancing Calories • Foods to Increase • Foods to Reduce

  4. Balancing Calories • Enjoy your food, but eat less. • Avoid oversized portions.

  5. Foods to Increase • Make half your plate fruits and vegetables. • Make at least half your grains whole grains. • Switch to fat-free or low fat (1%) milk.

  6. Foods to Reduce • Compare sodium in foods like soup, bread, and frozen meals—and choose the foods with lower numbers. • Drink water instead of sugary drinks.

  7. Food Groups Grains: Make at least half your grains whole. Vegetables: Vary your veggies Fruit: Focus on fruits Dairy: Get your calcium-rich foods. Protein Foods: Go lean with protein.

  8. Nutrients

  9. Carbohydrates • Our major source of energy • AKA: Sugars, starches, carbs • Found in grains, sugar, fruits, vegetables • 70% of our calories should come from carbohydrates

  10. Fat • Energy storage • AKA: oils and lipids • 15-25% of our calories should come from fat

  11. Protein • Repairs and builds muscle • Found in meat, beans, grains • Complete vs. incomplete

  12. Vitamins and Minerals • Vitamins are organic substances (made by plants or animals). Fat and water soluble. • Minerals are inorganic elements(come from the earth), cannot be created in body. • Both are needed for growth and development.

  13. Water • Water helps the body transport nutrients and flush out waste • Body is 55-78% water depending on body size. • We need about 8 cups of water daily (LOTS more in hot weather or while exercising)

  14. Fiber • Indigestible plant material • Keeps our digestive system moving • Helps prevent some types of cancer • Only found in WHOLE grains and lentils • Most Americans only get 1/5 of what they need.

  15. Metabolism

  16. Metabolism • Our bodies get the energy they need from food through metabolism, the chemical reactions in the body's cells that convert the fuel from food into the energy needed to do everything from moving to thinking to growing. • Metabolism is how many calories your body uses each day • AKA “caloric need” • AKA “TDEE” (Total Daily Energy Expenditure)

  17. BMRBasal Metabolic Rate • The amount of calories your body needs to keep its internal organs functioning • TDEE = BMR + (the energy spent exercising)

  18. Increase Your Metabolism • Build muscle! • Muscle cells use more energy when “idle” than fat cells do, that way you are burning more calories when you aren’t exercising • Exercise more! • Do something fun, increase your fitness, and lose weight all at the same time

  19. Obesity Having a BMI of greater than 30 kg/m 2 (Weight in Kilograms / Surface Area in Square Meters)

  20. Body Composition • What your body is made of • For example: 82 lbs Lean body mass (muscle, bone, organs) + 33 lbs Fat (body fat, cell membranes, brain) 115 lbs Total Body Weight

  21. Body Composition • This is often recorded as a percentage 82 lbs Lean body mass (muscle, bone, organs) + 33 lbs Fat (body fat, cell membranes, brain) 115 lbs Total Body Weight 33/115 = 28% body fat

  22. Body Composition • Body Percent Fat is often inaccurate • It is difficult to measure • Very athletic and very skinny people are even harder to measure • Sometimes, you’ll hear about an athlete who says they have 2% body fat, or something like that • That is IMPOSSIBLE. It is not good for you health if: • Men – body fat gets below 5% • Women- body fat gets below 12%

  23. BMIBody Mass Index • A number based on your HEIGHT and WEIGHT BMI=kg/m2 Adults are categorized by their BMI <20 Underweight 20-24.9 Healthy Weight 25-29.9 Overweight 30+ Obese

  24. BMIBody Mass Index • A number based on your HEIGHT and WEIGHT BMI=kg/m2 Adolescents are categorized by their percentile <5th Underweight 5th—85th Healthy Weight 85th—95th Overweight >95th Obese

  25. BMIBody Mass Index 5’2” and 99 lbs = BMI of 18.1 kg/m2 Nastia Luikin—Gymnast

  26. BMIBody Mass Index 6’4” and 195 lbs = BMI of 24 kg/m2 Michael Phelps—Swimmer

  27. BMIBody Mass Index 5’10” and 195 lbs = BMI of 28 kg/m2

  28. BMIBody Mass Index 5’10” and 322 lbs = BMI of 46 kg/m2

  29. BMIBody Mass Index 7’1” and 325 lbs = BMI of 31.6 kg/m2 Shaq—Basketball Player

  30. Causes of Obesity • Diet • Sedentary Lifestyle • Genetics

  31. Risks of Obesity • Heart Disease • Cancer • Type II Diabetes • Arthritis • Sleep Apnea • Depression • Gall Stones

  32. How Dangerous is Obesity? • With a BMI of 32, your risk of dying at any given time DOUBLES • Obesity on average shortens your life by 6-7 years • Severe obesity on average shortens your life by 20 years

  33. Prevalence of Obesity • 32% of Americans are obese • The obesity rate has doubled since 1980 • Obesity is possibly the leading preventable cause of death in America

  34. Childhood Obesity Obesity isn’t just for old people anymore

  35. 16-20% of Kids in the US are Obese

  36. Kids in rural areas areMORE likely to be Obese

  37. Childhood obesity has dangerous long- and short-term health consequences

  38. Lots of Factors are Being Blamed Video games Cultural changes Higher consumption of junk food Removing PE from schools The internet Fewer sit-down meals with the family Cable and satellite TV Poverty Public transportation More families owning multiple cars Obese parents making it easier for their kids to be obese Teenage dieting fads and eating disorders It’s probably a combination of them all
