Study Notes
- Nutrition is the process by which living organisms retrieve and transform substances to function.
- It is a multidisciplinary science that focuses on the physiology and psychology of nutrition.
- The definition of food depends on the physiological or psychological approach.
- Nutrition became a scientific discipline in the 18th and 19th centuries.
- The value of calorific foods became important during the industrial revolution.
- The body derives energy from macronutrients such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
- The energy obtained by oxidation varies for each macronutrient.
- The digestive system transforms macronutrients into glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids.
- There are many different nutrients, divided into macronutrients and micronutrients.
- The energy is measured in joules or calories.
- Carbohydrates are found in foods such as rice and bread.
- They are divided into categories based on the number of sugar units.
- The body needs carbohydrates to maintain blood concentration levels.
- Lipids are not soluble in water and are classified into four categories.
- 30-40% of energy should come from lipids.
- Proteins are made up of amino acids and are essential for the body.
- Animal products are the main source of protein in Western countries.
- The recommended daily intake of protein is 0.8g per kilogram of body weight.
- The digestion of proteins occurs mainly in the small intestine.
- Inappropriate protein intake can have strong and varied consequences on the body.

- Endocrine disruptors can have significant impacts on the embryo and fetus, even at low doses.
- Undernutrition during pregnancy or breastfeeding can cause metabolic pathologies in adulthood.
- The leptin gene can be affected by fetal undernutrition.
- This occurs through molecular programming mechanisms that are not yet fully understood.
- Animal experiments have confirmed the effects of undernutrition on DNA modifications.
- These modifications can lead to obesity, diabetes, or hypertension in adulthood.
- The quality of breast milk can also affect the health of the baby.
- It is important to avoid exposure to toxins and ensure proper nutrition during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
