Lesson 25 Worksheet Due TODAY Warm-up Unit 5 Pre-test Notes – Food Nutrient Chart Lesson 25 Worksheet Essential Question: How can I make the proper food choices to ensure that I am consuming the necessary nutrients for optimal health? Objective: I will list and identify the functions of the 6 nutrients categories found in foods I will list examples of foods that are good a source of each nutrient group

20. Unit 5 pre-test

21. Graph pre-test score • Learning Activity • A. Pre-test • 4 = 10 • 3 = 8-9 • 2 = 6-7 • 1 = 5 • 0 = 4 or less

22. Add Unit 5 Tracking Sheet to Binder (#25) • Pass out Unit 5 Notes packet (#26)

23. Proteins • A nutrient that is needed for growth, and to build and repair body tissues. • Regulate body processes and supply energy • Form every cell in your body • Make up more than 50% of your total body weight • Skin, hair, and nails are mostly proteins • Help your body maintain strength and resist infection • 1 gram of protein = 4 calories • Excess protein is burned as energy or stored as fat

24. Proteins

25. Proteins • Choosing Healthful Foods Worksheet(pg 15) 1. Explain the difference between a complete and incomplete protein.

26. Proteins • Complete protein – contains ALL of the essential amino acids. • Essential amino acids are the 9 amino acids that your body does NOT produce and must come from the foods you eat • Comes from animal products and soybeans

27. Proteins • Incomplete Proteins – A protein that does NOT contain all 9 essential amino acids. • Comes from plant sources • Grains • Legumes (beans, peas, lentils) • Nuts and seeds

28. Carbohydrates • A nutrient that is the main source of energy for the body. • Includes sugars, starches, and fiber • 1 gram of carbohydrate = 4 calories • Excess carbohydrates are stored as fat

29. Carbohydrates

30. Carbohydrates • Choosing Healthful Foods Worksheet (pg 15) 2. For what does the body use carbohydrates? 3. Why is it important to get enough fiber in your diet?

31. Carbohydrates • Simple carbohydrates – Sugars that enter the bloodstream rapidly and provide quick energy. • Provides few vitamins and minerals • Examples: table sugar, honey, corn syrup, molasses, agave nectar

32. Carbohydrates • Complex carbohydrates – Starches and fiber that provide long lasting energy • Most of the calories (60%) in your diet should come from COMPLEX carbohydrates. • Examples: grains, bread, pasta, potatoes, beans

33. Carbohydrates • Complex carbohydrates continued… • Fiber – The part of grains and plant foods that cannot be digested. • Fiber helps food move through the digestive system. • Prevents constipation • Makes you feel full • Reduces cholesterol level • Reduced risk of colon cancer

34. Fats • A Nutrient that provides energy and helps the body store and use vitamins. • 1 gram of fat = 9 calories • Fats store and transport vitamins • Fat tissue surrounds and cushions internal organs • Maintains body heat • Build brain cells and nerve tissue • NO more than 30% of your total caloric intake should come from fats.

35. Fats

36. Fats • Choosing Healthful Foods Worksheet (pg 15) 4. What is saturated fat?

37. Fats • Saturated fat – Type of fat found in dairy products, solid vegetable fat, meat and poultry • Usually solid at room temperature • Contribute to the level of cholesterol in a person’s blood

38. Fats • Unsaturated fat – Type of fat obtained from plant products and fish • Usually liquid at room temperature • Examples: Fish oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, canola oil

39. Vitamins • A nutrient that helps the body use carbohydrates, proteins, and fats • Do NOT provide direct energy • Help to unleash potential energy from carbs, proteins, and fats

40. Vitamins Vitamin A • Vitamin C • Vitamin K • Vitamin B1 • Vitamin D

41. Vitamins • Choosing Healthful Foods Worksheet (pg 15) 5. a. Compare (how are they alike) fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins. 1 sentence 5. b. Contrast (how are they different) fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins. 1 sentence

42. Vitamins • Fat-soluble vitamins – Vitamins that dissolve in fat and can be stored in the body • Vitamins A, D, E, and K

43. Vitamins • Water-soluble vitamins – Vitamins that dissolve in water and cannot be stored in the body in significant amounts. • Vitamin C and the B complex vitamins

44. Minerals • A nutrient that regulates many chemical reactions in the body • Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances • Essential for metabolism and nutrition

45. Minerals Potassium Zinc Magnesium Iodine Calcium

46. Minerals • Choosing Healthful Foods Worksheet (pg16) 1. Explain the difference between macro minerals and trace minerals. Give one example of each.

47. Minerals • Macro minerals – minerals that are required in amounts greater than 100mg • Examples: calcium, sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium

48. Minerals • Trace minerals – Minerals that are needed in very small amounts. • They are just as important to the body as macro minerals, just needed in smaller amounts • Examples: iron, zinc, copper, iodine, manganese

49. Herbal Supplements • Choosing Healthful Foods Worksheet (pg 16) 2. Why is it important to do research before taking an herbal supplement?
