LESSON 2 Nutrients Types of Proteins Your body uses about 20 amino acids that are found in food. You produce, or synthesize, all but nine of the amino acids. • Nine amino acids are called essential amino acids because the body must get them from food. • The rest are known as nonessential amino acids meaning that your body produces these.

LESSON 2 Nutrients Fats Your body needs a certain amount of fat to function properly. To maintain a healthy weight, choose to eat healthier fats. Glencoe Health Chapter 10 Nutrition for Health Lesson Home

LESSON 2 Nutrients Types of Fats Dietary fats are composed of fatty acids. Fatty acids that the body needs but cannot produce on its own are called essential fatty acids. What are the 3 types of fats? Glencoe Health Chapter 10 Nutrition for Health Lesson Home

LESSON 2 Nutrients Types of Fats Unsaturated Fats Saturated Fats Trans Fats Good Fat: Eating unsaturated fats in moderate amounts may lower your risk of heart disease. Vegetable oils, nuts, seeds Eat in small amount: Consuming too many saturated fats may increase your risk of heart disease. Meat, dairy products, palm oil, coconut oil. No not eat: Trans fats can raise your total blood cholesterol level, which increases your risk for heart disease. Trans fats are fats that are formed by a process called hydrogenation, which causes vegetable oil to harden also known as “partially hydrogenated oils” on the ingredient list on food packages. As it hardens, the fats become more saturated an more unhealthful. Margarine, many snack foods, and packaged bakery goods, such as cookies and crackers.

LESSON 2 Nutrients Types of Fats Trans fat became popular with consumers and food manufacturers because it acted as a preservative, giving foods a longer shelf life. It also gave foods a more tempting taste and texture. Because of their health risk, the USDA now requires that the amounts of trans fats be listed on nutrition labels BUT BE CAREFULL!!!! Some cities require that restaurants avoid cooking with trans fats. Glencoe Health Chapter 10 Nutrition for Health Lesson Home

Fats provide a concentrated form of energy. Fats also help absorb and transport fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) through the bloodstream.

LESSON 2 Nutrients Other Types of Nutrients Main Idea Vitamins, minerals, and water do not provide energy, but perform a wide variety of body functions. Each vitamin and mineral performs a different function in the body. Glencoe Health Chapter 10 Nutrition for Health Lesson Home
