    Study Notes

    Nutrition: Carbohydrates, Vitamins, and Minerals Summary

    • Carbohydrates are classified into monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides based on the number of sugar units they contain.
    • Carbohydrates provide 4 kcal/g of energy, and examples of monosaccharides include glucose, fructose, and galactose.
    • Disaccharides include sucrose and lactose, while starch and fiber are examples of polysaccharides.
    • Monosaccharides and disaccharides are considered simple carbs, while fibers and starch are complex carbs.
    • The body cannot digest fiber, and complex carbs are found in vegetables and whole grains.
    • Glucose is converted into glycogen and stored in the liver and skeletal muscles.
    • Vitamin A is responsible for epithelial tissue integrity and is found in orange fruits and vegetables.
    • Vitamin D aids in bone formation and can be obtained from fortified milk.
    • Vitamin K helps in blood clotting and can be found in green leafy vegetables and the digestive tract.
    • B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, and C are water-soluble vitamins, and A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble vitamins.
    • Calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, and magnesium are macrominerals, while iron, iodine, zinc, chromium, fluoride, copper, and selenium are microminerals.
    • Nutritional guidelines emphasize the consumption of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and fat-free or low-fat milk and dairy products while limiting fats, oils, and sweets.
