Anatomy and PhysiologyDietetics is related to several different body systems. Thelimbic system of the brain processes the pleasurable emo-tions and memories associated with food and eating. Theeyes detect the visible presence of food and send thisinformation to the visual cortex of the brain. The nosedetects food smells and sends this information to the olfac-tory cortex of the brain. The tongue detects several differ-ent tastes and sends this information to the gustatory cor-tex of the brain. Food is processed by the gastrointestinalsystem and transformed into nutrients to meet the needs ofthe body.
Nutrients and NutritionA nutrient is a substance that provides nourishment to the body.Nutrients include carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, and miner-als. An essential nutrient is one that the body cannot produce itself andmust obtain from food.
Macronutrients are nutrients that the body needs in large amountseach day. Carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids are macronutrients.Macronutrients provide different amounts of energy.
• Carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram• Proteins provide 4 calories per gram• Lipids provide 9 calories per gram
Micronutrients are nutrients that the body needs in very tinyamounts, sometimes a little as one-millionth of a gram each day.Vitamins and minerals are micronutrients.
Nutrition is the process by which the body uses nutrients to meetits needs for nourishment, growth, and reproduction.

Figure 21-1 ■ Fructose.Fructose is the sugar found naturally in fruits. A survey conducted by theU.S. Department of Agriculture found that, on a daily basis, 50% of thepeople surveyed did not eat any fruit at all.
To meet future demands for a quick source of energy, the body storesglucose molecules as glycogen in the liver and skeletal muscles.
Disaccharides are composed of two sugar molecules.

Add words to make a correct and com-plete definition of lactose: full of [the sugarfound in] milk.
CarbohydratesThe body needs carbohydrates to meet immediate energy needs and tostore energy for future needs. The body must obtain all of the carbo-hydrates it needs from foods in the diet. The enzyme amylase (pro-duced by the salivary glands and the pancreas) breaks down carbohy-drates into individual sugar molecules that can be absorbed into theblood. Carbohydrates include monosaccharides, disaccharides, andpolysaccharides.
Monosaccharides are simple sugars that contain a single sugarmolecule.

Did You Know?The first artificial sweetener was named saccharin to emphasize its connection to natural sugar. The combining form sacchar/o-means sugar.
Dextrose is a manufactured sugar. It is also known as d-glucosebecause it is the dextrorotatory or right-handed version of the glucose mole-cule. It is used in intravenous fluids.
For many years, it was felt that simple carbohydrates like table sugarraised the blood sugar quickly while complex carbohydrates like potatoesraised the blood sugar more slowly. Now it has been shown that table sugar raises the blood sugar level at about the same rate as bread orpotatoes.
Your body cannot break apart cellulose or pectin, and so they functionas dietary fiber rather than as carbohydrates.

LipidsThe body needs lipids to transport and store vitamins A, D, E, and K;to store energy for future needs; and to make hormones. The bodymust obtain all of the lipids it needs from foods in the diet. Dietarylipids are classified as saturated or polyunsaturated fats. The enzymelipase (produced by the pancreas) breaks down lipids into fatty acidmolecules that can be absorbed into the blood. Saturated fats are lipidsin which a hydrogen atom is bonded to every position in the fatty acidchain. Saturated fats are derived from animal products and are solid atroom temperature (see Figure 21-3 ■). Polyunsaturated fats are lipidsthat have fewer hydrogen atoms. Most polyunsaturated fats (oils) areliquids at room temperature. Vegetable oils (with the exception ofcoconut) contain polyunsaturated fat.

Did You Know?The body takes amino acids from the food and uses them to make more than 100,000 different protein molecules for use in the body. Each protein can be a chain of 1,000 or more amino acids.
ProteinThe body needs protein to build, repair, or replace all types of tissuesand to synthesize enzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters, antibodies,and hemoglobin. The body obtains the protein it needs from foods inthe diet. The enzyme protease (produced by the stomach) breaks downthe protein in foods into individual amino acids that can be absorbedinto the blood. There are 22 different amino acids. Nine of these areessential amino acids because the body cannot produce them and theymust be obtained from foods. If a single food contains all nine essen-tial amino acids, it is a complete protein. Protein that comes from ananimal (meat, fish, eggs, dairy products) is a complete protein, butsoybeans are a unique example of a complete protein from a plantsource. If a single food does not contain all nine essential amino acids,it is an incomplete protein. Vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seedsare incomplete proteins; however, a variety of incomplete proteinfoods can be combined to create complete protein.

Figure 21-3 ■ Saturated fats.Saturated fats in animal products and some plant products like coconut are solidat room temperature.
Did You Know?Margarine begins as a polyunsaturated oil (such as corn oil). Hydrogen atoms are then added to the oil in a process known as hydrogenation. This oil is then hydrogenated, which changes its physical properties so that it remains solid at room temperature. In thisform, it is known as trans fat. Both trans fat and saturated fat are undesir-able in the diet because they raise the level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL),the lipoprotein carrier that deposits cholesterol on the arterial walls.
Omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in fish, may help lower serum choles-terol and triglyceride levels.
The American diet is very high in fat. Approximately 40 to 50% of the totaldaily calories come from fat. Ideally, this should be 30 to 35%.
Lipid-Containing Compounds Lipid-containing compounds—cholesterol, triglycerides, lipoproteins, and phospholipids—containfatty acids combined with another molecule.
Cholesterol is a combination of fatty acids and an alcohol group.Cholesterol is an important part of bile, the sex hormones estradioland testosterone, as well as neurotransmitters and cell membranes.
Triglyceride is a combination of fatty acids and glycerol molecules.Triglycerides are stored as fat that protects the internal organs, insu-lates the body from the cold, provides emergency energy reserves, andholds the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. Excessive amounts oftriglycerides are stored in larger deposits as adipose tissue.
Lipoproteins are a combination of fatty acids and protein molecules.They are carrier molecules that transport cholesterol and triglyceridesthrough the blood.
Phospholipids are a combination of fatty acids and phosphorus.They are carrier molecules that transport the fat-soluble vitamins A, D,E, and K through the blood.
cholesterol (koh-LES-ter-awl)Cholesterol is a combination of the com-bining form chol/e- (bile, gall) and thesuffix -sterol. Cholesterol is the main com-ponent of bile. A sterol is a chemical com-pound with an alcohol group (shown bythe suffix -ol).

VitaminsVitamins are micronutrients that play an important role in many of thechemical reactions of metabolism. There are 13 vitamins—nine water-soluble vitamins and four fat-soluble vitamins.
Water-soluble vitamins include vitamin B1 (thiamin), vitamin B2
(riboflavin), vitamin B3 (niacin), vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid), vitaminB6 (pyridoxine), and vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin), folate (folic acid),biotin, and vitamin C (ascorbic acid). With the exception of vitaminsB12 and C, water-soluble vitamins are not stored in the body (see Table21-1). Each day, the body needs to replenish its supply of these

vitamins through food intake or through dietary supplements. Water-soluble vitamins are destroyed by heat and prolonged cooking. TheB vitamins are lost during the milling process when the outer coveringof a grain like rice or wheat is removed. Manufacturers then replacethe B vitamins and label the product as enriched. Megadoses of water-soluble vitamins, extremely large doses taken as dietary supplements,are mostly excreted in the urine.
Fat-soluble vitamins include vitamins A, D, E, and K. Fat-soluble vit-amins are stored in the fatty tissue of the body (see Table 21-2). Thebody draws on those stores if the amount of fat-soluble vitamins in thediet is inadequate. During the commercial processing of milk, two fat-soluble vitamins (A and D) are added to make the milk fortified.Megadoses of fat-soluble vitamins remain in the body’s fat stores andcan reach toxic levels.
Figure 21-4 ■ Vitamin C.Citrus fruits are a rich source of vitamin C.
A Closer LookVitamin B1 was the first vitamin to be discovered; hence the designation B1. Because B1 contained a nitrogen group known as an amine, the word vitamine was created in 1912 to describe it. Later, when it was discovered that other vitamins did not have an amine group, the spelling was changed to delete the -e.

ConnectionsPublic Health. The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) is a guideline prepared by the Food and Nutrition Board of the NationalAcademy of Sciences. It establishes the amount of an essential nutrient thatis needed to meet the nutritional needs of most healthy people. There are18 different categories of RDAs, based on age and sex. There are also spe-cial categories for pregnant women and nursing mothers.
Most water-soluble vitamins and all of the fat-soluble vitamins have arecommended dietary allowance (RDA). There is an RDA for some minerals(calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, zinc, and iodine), and a recom-mended daily range of intake for other minerals. Carbohydrates, lipids, pro-teins, and fiber do not have an RDA.
Sodium plays a role in the development of hypertension. The first step intreating hypertension is to put the patient on a no-added-salt or a low-sodium diet. The American Heart Association recommends a maximum dailysodium intake of 3,000 mg. However, the average American eats 4,000 to5,000 mg of sodium each day. In November 2002, the American PublicHealth Association called for a 50% reduction in the sodium content ofprocessed foods and restaurant foods.

Physiology of Taste and MetabolismAs food enters the oral cavity, food particles touch taste buds on thetongue. The taste buds contain hundreds of different taste receptorsthat sense the taste and relay that information to the gustatory cortexin the brain. Traditionally, the sense of taste has been thought of ashaving four parts: sweet, salty, sour, or bitter. A fifth taste receptor hasbeen identified that detects umami, the savory taste found in meats,monosodium glutamate (MSG), mushrooms, aged cheese, and soysauce.
Foods are broken down into their component nutrients in the gas-trointestinal system. Nutrients are absorbed from the small intestineinto the blood and then distributed throughout the body. When nutri-ents enter a cell, intracellular enzymes break down their molecules intoindividual atoms. Breaking the chemical bonds between atomsreleases heat and energy. The heat, which is measured in calories, isused to warm the body. The energy is stored in the intracellular mole-cule ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and released according to theneeds of the cell. These processes go on continuously in every cell aspart of the process of metabolism. Metabolism includes catabolism(breaking down molecules) and anabolism (assembling molecules).
How people’s bodies use nutrients to build muscle and deposit fatis reflected in their body build or somatotype. There are three soma-totypes: ectomorph, mesomorph, and endomorph. An ectomorphicbody type is long and thin. A mesomorphic body type has a balancedappearance of the trunk and limbs. An endomorphic body type has around trunk with thin extremities.

ConnectionsMicrobiology. Large numbers of bacteria in spoiling food causegastrointestinal symptoms in anyone who eats the food. Cam-pylobacter is found in undercooked poultry, unpasteurized milk,and raw eggs. Salmonella is found in undercooked meat andraw eggs. Escherichia coli is found in undercooked beef that wascontaminated with feces during the slaughtering process.Staphylococcus aureus, found in the nose and throat of foodhandlers, is transferred to food by the hands. Both the bacteriaand the toxin it produces can cause food poisoning. Clostridiumbotulinum occurs when low-acid foods have been improperlycanned (usually home canning) or when cans are damaged. Thebacteria grow without oxygen and multiply until the ends of thecan bulge from the pressure. The toxin from this bacteriumaffects the muscles and nervous system and can cause death.This condition is called botulism.

Meet Karyn, a dietitian.I decided to become a dietician when I was working in food service as a foodservice worker. I was looking around for a career and thought about becoming anurse but decided that I already had a lot of experience in food service. In my firstjob as a dietician, I worked at a small community hospital. The exciting thing aboutbeing a dietician is that there’s always a challenge every day. Every patient is verydifferent. All the types of clinical cases that we see can range from diabetes topancreatitis to tube feedings to parenteral feedings, and you have to learn to adjusteverything that you do according to each patient that you see. Each week, ondifferent units, we have multidisciplinary care plan rounds that involve nurses, caremanagers, physical therapy, pharmacy, and dieticians. Dieticians treat people whoweigh too much, people who have cardiac conditions and diabetes, the very elderlywho have lost a lot of weight, patients who have cancer, premature infants who aregrowing, as well as pediatric cases and adults with different types ofgastrointestinal disorders.
