Study Notes
Nutrient-Poor Foods
- Nutrient-poor foods lack essential nutrition and are high in excess energy (kilojoules).
- These foods provide energy but do not support bodily functions due to lack of nutrients.
Macronutrients
- Three primary macronutrients: carbohydrates, protein, and fat.
- Most foods contain a mix of these, classified by the predominant macronutrient.
Carbohydrates
- Major sources include bread, pasta, rice, oats, beans, fruits, and starchy vegetables.
- Serve as the body's preferred energy source and should be a significant part of the diet.
Protein
- Essential for building and repairing tissues and muscles.
- Sources include meat, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy products, beans, nuts, and soy.
