Study Notes
Dairy Servings
- 1 cup of milk is equivalent to 2 ounces of processed cheese or 1 cup of yogurt.
Protein Equivalents
- 1 ounce of meat or poultry is equivalent to 1/4 cup of cooked beans.
Complete Proteins
- Complete proteins include meat, fish, poultry, dairy, quinoa, chia seeds, and eggs.
Role of Proteins
- Proteins break down into amino acids and are crucial for tissue growth, repair, and energy production in the absence of carbohydrates.
Amino Acids
- Essential amino acids are not produced by the body, while conditional amino acids are essential during illness. Nonessential amino acids are synthesized by the body, and complete proteins contain all essential amino acids.
Metabolism Terms
- Catabolism refers to the breakdown of molecules into smaller units with energy release.
- Metabolism encompasses all processes for converting food into energy.
Energy Measurement
- Caloric content measures how much energy food provides, with fat providing 9 kcal/g.
Carbohydrates
- Smart carbohydrate choices include low-fat milk, while honey is not a nutrient-rich carbohydrate. Nuts and seeds are classified as non-complex carbohydrates.
Dietary Fiber
- Yogurt does not provide significant fiber, and soluble fiber is incorrectly stated to be found in nuts, prunes, and popcorn.
Glycemic Index (GI)
- High GI foods produce variable changes in blood glucose levels and can aid in weight loss efforts.
Dietary Fats
- Different types of fats include saturated (found in butter, cheese, and whole milk) and trans fatty acids, which raise LDL cholesterol levels.
Cholesterol Facts
- Cholesterol is found in animal products, produced by the liver, and essential for cell membrane structure and hormone synthesis.
Minerals and Their Roles
- Essential minerals include calcium for teeth and bones, potassium and sodium for muscle and nerve function, iron for metabolism, and iodine for thyroid function.
Vitamins Overview
- Vitamin K is not an antioxidant, while Vitamin C (found in citrus and green vegetables) and Vitamin D (found in fatty fish and fortified milk) are essential vitamins.
- Deficiencies in Vitamins A, K, and C lead to night blindness, bleeding, and scurvy, respectively.
Importance of Water
- Water maintains body temperature, lubricates joints, and needs increase in hot weather, during activity, and in illness.
Dietary Supplements
- Include vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and herbs to address nutrient deficiencies.
MyPlate Guidelines
- Recommendations include filling half the plate with fruits and vegetables, choosing whole grains, and limiting saturated fats and added sugars.
Diets and Health Conditions
- Clear liquid diets exclude juice with pulp, while full liquid diets exclude chunky soups.
- Soft diets address chewing and swallowing difficulties.
Weight Control
- A daily reduction of 500-1000 calories leads to a weight loss of 1-2 pounds per week.
- Monitoring carbohydrates is crucial for managing diabetes, while calorie intake is vital for weight control.
Dietary Considerations
- A low sodium diet is necessary for conditions like hypertension and cardiovascular disease.
- Foods high in sodium, such as bacon and frozen meals, should be limited for individuals with hypertension.
Dietary Approaches
- DASH diet is specifically aimed at reducing cardiovascular risks.
- Low protein diets are recommended for liver disease management.
Food Allergies
- Common allergens include milk, eggs, and nuts; they can trigger severe reactions like anaphylaxis. An elimination diet may be necessary.
Celiac Disease
- A gluten-free diet is required for managing celiac disease, excluding foods such as whole-wheat bread and barley.
Lactose Sensitivity
- Treatment focuses on avoiding dairy products or using enzyme replacements.
Cancer Treatment Nutrition
- Patients are encouraged to maintain a soft, bland diet, consume high-protein and calorie-dense meals, drink liquids between meals, and limit irritants like caffeine and alcohol.
Impact of Cancer Treatment
- Side effects can include mouth sores, changes in taste, dry mouth, and nausea, complicating dietary intake.
Eating Disorders
- Anorexia nervosa is characterized by extreme weight loss due to restrictive eating, while bulimia nervosa involves episodes of overeating followed by purging behaviors.
