GOOD FOOD GOOD HEALTH
NUTRITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
Components of Healthy Nutrition 45 Essential Nutrients are needed for a
healthy body ! PROTEINS ! FATS ! CARBS ! VITAMINS & MINERALS ! WATER
DAILY CALORIC INTAKE
! Depends on age and activity ! Average Daily Caloric Intake = 2000 calories !Daily Caloric Intake from Calories ! PROTEIN: 30% ! FAT: 30% ! CARBS: 40% ! WATER: Male – 3 Liters; Female – 2 Liters ! MINERALS: Iron, Calcium, Magnesium & K+ ! VITAMINS: A, D, E, K – Fat Soluble
– Vitamin C + 8 B complex (Thiamin, Niacin, Riboflavin, B6, FOLATE, B12, Biotin, Pantolhenic – Water Soluble
PROTEINS
! Form muscle, bone, blood, enzymes, hormones and cell membrane.
! Provide energy, growth and body functions Complete Proteins – supply all essential amino acids ! Meat ! Fish ! Poultry – chicken, turkey, duck ! Eggs – egg white ! Milk ! Cheese ! Soy ! Whey – most complete protein
INCOMPLETE PROTEINS
! Supply on some of the essential amino acids ! Come mainly from plants ! Two vegetables can form a complete protein Examples: ! Beans & rice ! Pinto & Kidney beans ! Wheat bread & peanut butter Recommended amount: 10 grams for every 30
pounds ! 120lb woman = 40g 200lb man = 70g
GOOD FATS CONT.
A. OMEGA – 3 FATTY ACIDS FISH & FISH OIL ! Salmon (Wild) ! Tuna ! Trout ! Mackerel ! Herring ! Sardines & Anchovies PLANTS ! Green, leafy vegetables: Kale, Spinach ! Walnuts ! Flax_Seed & Flaxseed Oils ! Canola Oil
!
FATS or LIPIDS
! Most concentrated source of energy – Stores energy and provides insulation & support
for body organs – 2 Fats are a must: linoleic and alpha linoleic acid GOOD FATS: 1. Monounsaturated Fatty Acids
! Avocados ! RAW Nuts esp walnuts & almonds ! Olives ! Canola Oil ! Olive Oil ! Peanuts DO NOT HEAT THE OILS
2. Polyunsaturated Oil
BAD FATS
1. Saturated Fats: Come form animal products ! Red Meats (hamburger, steak, roast) ! Whole Milk ! Cheese ! Processed Meats (hot dogs, lunch meat) ! Palm & Coconut Oil 2. Hydrogenated Fats: ! A process which turns good fat into bad fat
through heating
BAD FATS CONT.
Trans Fats – VERY BAD ! Through hydrogenation, unsaturated fatty acids are
turned into trans fats ! Most common
– Very crispy french fries (McDonalds) – Potato chips – Fried chicken – Stick margarine – Pot Pies – Doughnuts
! Trans fats have a double negative effect on the lipid profile.
! It raises LDL and lowers HDL
LIPID PROFILE
1. Total Cholesterol – a substance found in the blood cells, needed for synthesis of cell membranes. In excess amounts, adheres to the blood vessel causing narrowing and plaque buildup.
!2. HDL – Good Cholesterol (High Density Lipids) – the “good” cholesterol which prevents the buildup of
plaque thus protecting the heart against disease.
!3. LDL – Bad Cholesterol (Low Density Lipids) – Blood fat that transports cholesterol to organs and tissues.
In excess amounts it attaches to the arterial wall causing narrowing and plaques
!4. Triglycerides – Most fats in the body are in the form of
triglycerides. Composed of one glycerol molecule and 3
HOW TO IMPROVE LIPID PROFILE
1. Eat healthy foods 2. LIMIT carbohydrates 3. Eat “good” fates from
monounsaturated & polyunsaturated categories
4. Avoid saturated and trans fats 5. HDL can be increased through
exercise 6. Medications are available if levels
remain high
RECOMMENDED AMOUNT OF DAILY FAT
30 % of total calories ! 3-4 teaspoons of oil i.e. olive oil !
Cholesterol: Less than 300mg/day Foods high in cholesterol ! Eggs (yolk) ! Dairy fat – whole milk, cheese, butter ! Liver ! Shellfish (shrimp, lobster) ! Mayonnaise
CARBOHYDRATES (CARBS) – The Ideal Source of Energy
! Supplies immediate energy to body cells 2 Types of Carbohydrates ! Complex – maintain a steady blood sugar
– Vegetables – Beans – Whole Grains
! In Between – Fruits – Milk
! Simple Carbs – add pounds, cause unstable blood sugar, rot teeth, taste good, very addicting
– Sugar of ANY KIND: white, brown, processed, raw honey, molasses, fruit juice
% GRAMS
Men Women Protein 56g 46g !Fat 18.6g 13.1g !Carbohydrates 130g 130g !Sodium 2000mg 1600mg
Glycemic Index and Glycemic Response
! Insulin and glucose levels ! Quick rise in glucose and insulin levels =
high glycemic index – Eating high glycemic index foods may increase
appetite: sugar, soft drinks, doughnuts, coffee “specialty” drinks, cupcakes
– Increases the risk of diabetes and heart disease – Unrefined grains, fruits, vegetables and legumes
have relatively low glycemic index – EAT ALL YOU WANT!!!
WATER
! Composed of about 50-60% water ! Can live up to 50 days without food but only
a few days without water ! Water and other beverages make up 80-90%
of your daily water intake ! Men – 3.7 total liters of water with 3.0 liters
(13 cups) coming from beverages ! Women – 2.7 total liters of water with 2.2 (9
cups) coming from beverages
VITAMINS
! Organic (carbon-containing) substances required in small amouns to promote specific chemical reactions (catalyst) within a living cell
! Thirteen vitamins: – Four Fat Soluble: A, D, E, and K – Nine Water Soluble: C and 8 B-complex vitamins.
(Thiamin (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Niacin (B3), Pyridoxine (B6), Folate, B-12, Biotine and Pantothenic acid
! Sources: – Human body does not manufacture most vitamins.
Abundant in fruits, vegetables and grains
MINERALS
! Inorganic compounds ! Helps to regulate body functions, aid
in growth, maintenance of body tissues, and a catalyst for energy release
! 17 essential minerals – Major minerals – 100 milligrams or more
! Calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, sodium, sulfur, potassium, and chloride
– Trace minerals – minute amounts ! Cobalt, copper, fluoride, iodide, iron,
manganese, molybdenum, selenium, and zinc
OTHER SUBSTANCES IN FOOD
! Free radicals in the environment such as pollution – cigarette smoking, exhaust fumes and some drugs can damage cell membranes and mutate genes
ANTIOXIDANTS
Foods high in antioxidants ! Can help protect the body from the damage caused by free radicals ! These foods can repair the cells ! TYPES: Carotenoids found in yellow, orange and deep green vegetables ! TOP Antioxidants:
– Blackberries – Walnuts – Strawberries – Artichokes – Cranberries – Brewed coffee – Raspberries – Pecans – Blueberries – Cloves – Grape juice – Unsweetened baking chocolate – Sour cherries – Red wine – Bressel sprouts – Kale – Cauliflower
PHYTO CHEMICALS
! Soy – lowers cholesterol ! Garlic and onions boost cancer
fighting immune cells ! Cruciferous vegetables such as
cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower protect against cancer
