Water

Slide 14.64Dietary Sources of Major Nutrients

Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Carbohydrates

Derived from plants

Exceptions: lactose from milk and small amounts of glycogens from meats

Primary function is to provide energy

Dietary Sources of Major Nutrients

Lipids

Unsaturated fats from nuts, seeds, and vegetable oils

Cholesterol from egg yolk, meats, and milk products

Cholesterol Metabolism

Cholesterol Metabolism

Slide 14.81Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Cholesterol Transport

Slide 14.82Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

They are transported by lipoproteins (lipid-protein complexes)

Low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) transport to body cells and sticks to artery walls and contributes to plaque build-up

High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) transport LDL from body cells to the liver

Ways to Increase HDL
