NUTRITION EDUCATION YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT!

DEFINITIONS � Nutrition � Process in which the body takes in and uses food � Hunger � A physical need to eat � Appetite � A desire to eat � Nutrients � Substances in food your body needs to function properly for growth, repair and energy

6 MAJOR NUTRIENTS � Carbohydrates Simple � Complex � � Fats Saturated � Unsaturated � � Proteins Complete � Incomplete � � Vitamins Water-soluble � Fat-soluble � Minerals � Water �

NUTRIENT PRESENTATIONS � In your assigned groups you will be assigned a nutrient to research and be responsible for finding the following information. You will write your information down on butcher paper to be presented to the class. Nutrient groups will be responsible for teaching the rest of the class about their assigned nutrient.

NUTRIENT PRESENTATIONS CONTINUED CRITERIA Define the nutrient � How much of the nutrient is needed daily (i. e. grams, milligrams, micrograms, etc. ) � Three examples of food sources the nutrient is found in � Other categories? � Their definition � Three food sources they are found in � (Minerals…how many are there? Show three examples) � What are three contributions/functions the nutrient provides to the body? � What are two interesting facts about the nutrient? � What is one pro and one con about the nutrient? �

PART 2: THE COMMERCIAL � 1. 2. 3. 4. For the 2 nd part of this assignment students will remain with their same nutrient group. You will create a commercial to promote your nutrient. Commercials will need to be at least 30 -45 seconds long. You will have to have a visual aid Every person will have a part in the commercial. You will need to provide the following information in your commercial: 1. 2. 3. Definition of the nutrient Types of food found in Choose any 2 of the following 4 to provide in your commercial 1. 2. 3. Amount needed per day Pros and cons Other categories

CARBOHYDRATES Starches and sugars found in food that if not utilized will eventually turn into and be utilized as fat. � Provide heat and energy and supply fiber for digestion. � Should be 55 -65% of your diet � 150 -160 grams per day � 4 calories/gram � 2 Types of Carbohydrates � � Simple Carbos: only one simple sugar (glucose) � Fruits, milk, vegetables � Complex Carbos: 3 or more simple sugars, starches � Rice, grains, seeds, nuts, and legumes � Low in fat � High in fiber, minerals and protein

FATS � � � � � Provides warmth, transportation of vitamins, and protects vital organs. Are the most concentrated form of energy Delivers more energy than carbos and proteins Helps protect vital organs Helps regulate the body’s temperature Carry vitamins A, D, E, and K Does not dissolve in water 9 cal/gram = 66 -84 grams needed per day = 30 % of your diet. Fats satisfy hunger longer due to taking longer to digest. 2 types � Saturated fats – solid or semi-solid at room temperature (UNHEALTHY) � � Unsaturated fats – liquid at room temperature (HEALTHY) � � Animal fats, tropical oils, beef, pork, egg yolks, and dairy products Vegetable oil, olive oil, canola oil, soybean oil, corn oil, etc. Trans-fats – when a hydrogen is added through a heating process (UNHEALTHY) � Margarine, shortening, baked goods, fried foods.

PROTEINS � � � Builds and repairs body tissues (muscle, bone, teeth, skin, blood, and organs) provides energy, and produces antibodies. There are 20 different amino acids Your body makes all but 9 amino acids Those 9 are referred to as essential amino acids that must come from food. 4 cal/gram, 45 -57 grams are needed per day = 10% of your diet. Complete proteins: foods that contain essential amino acids. � � Fish, meat, poultry, eggs, milk, cheese, yogurt, and soybean products Incomplete proteins: foods that are missing essential amino acids. � Seeds, legumes, nuts, and grains

VITAMINS � � � Compounds that help regulate and maintain vital body processes. Digestion, absorption, and metabolism All are needed in small amounts Vitamins do not supply calories There are 13 essential vitamins Vitamin D is produced by the body � Water-soluble: dissolves in water Get into blood stream quicker � Excess vitamins are excreted through urine � Replenished regularly � � Fat-soluble: absorbed and transported by fat A, D, E, and K � All are stored in body fat, liver and kidneys � Excess can be toxic �

MINERALS Inorganic substances that the body cannot produce. It regulates many vital body processes just as vitamins do. � Minerals needed by the body are absorbed from the ground. � � Happens when we eat plants or animals. 14 are needed on a daily basis � Each mineral has a required amount of mg needed per day � Sodium = 500 mg � Iron = 15 mg � Calcium = 1200 mg �

WATER � Carries nutrients to and from cells in the body and regulates body function. � Cushion for joints and spinal cord � Keeps body hydrated � Aids in excretion � Carries and dissolves vitamins � Helps maintain body temperature � 2 -3 liters are needed per day=7 -11 cups daily � Fruits and veggies are 95% water � Meat and cheese have less than 50% water � Water makes up 70 -80% of our body

WATER VS. COKE � � � � � WATER We all know that water is important but I’ve never seen it written down like this before. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world pop. ) In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 3%. One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a U-Washington study. Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue. Preliminary research indicates that 8 -10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain up to 80% of sufferers. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water you should every day?

WATER VS. COKE � � � In many states (in the USA) the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of coke and it will be gone in two days. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coco-Cola into the bowl and………Let the “real thing” sit for one hour, then flush clean. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a crumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coco-Cola. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coco-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion. To loosen a rusted bolt: Applying a cloth soaked in Coco-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coco-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before the ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the coke for sumptuous brown gravy. To remove grease from cloths: Empty a can of coke into a load of greasy cloths, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coco-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its Ph is 2. 8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days. To carry Coco-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial trunk must use the hazardous material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials. The distributors of coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years.

CHOOSE MY PLATE Know the limits on fats, sugars, and salt Make most of your fat source from fish, nuts and vegetable oils. Limit solid fats (saturated) like butter, margarine, shortening, and lard, as well as foods that contain these. Select lean or low-fat foods. Select baked, steamed, or broiled foods rather than fried. Check the Nutrition Facts label to keep saturated fats, trans fats, and sodium low. Keep sodium intake less than 2000 mg per day. Watch those processed foods! Choose food and beverages low in added sugar. Added sugars contribute calories with few, if any, nutrients. Limit sweet snacks and desserts. Choose fresh fruit or vegetables as snacks. Choose light or fruits canned in juice or water Choose fat-free or low-fat milk or yogurt and cheese � � �

FAST FOOD FACTS Ø Ø Ø Ø Each day, 1 in 4 Americans eat at fast food restaurants. In 1972 $3 billion dollars a year was spent on fast food…today more than $110 billion dollars are spent. There are 11, 100 Burger King Restaurants in 65 countries and U. S. territories. There are over 30, 000 Mc. Donald’s restaurants serving 50 million people in 119 countries daily. Mc. Donalds has served nearly 432 million pounds of vegetables, and 181 million pounds of fruit. The amount of lettuce served in Mc. Donalds’s restaurants in Japan would equal the weight of 30 Boeing 747’s. You would have to walk for 7 hours straight to burn off a Super Sized Coke, Fry & Big Mac. Hash Browns “weight for weight” contain more fat and calories than a cheeseburger or Big Mac.

FAST FOOD CON’T Ø Ø Ø Sonic buys enough hamburgers a year to make more than 252 million patties…that is enough to pave a 304 mile section of Old Route 66. If you stacked a year’s worth of sonic hamburger patties one on top of the other, they would reach 697 miles…that’s 250 Empire State buildings!! (Empire State Building stands 1, 472 feet tall). Sonic buys nearly 23 million pounds of French fries per year…that’s enough to serve one large order of fries a day to every person in New York City for 11 days. Sonic uses 78 million cherries yearly, enough to stretch from Fresno, California to Oklahoma City… 1, 247 miles! Placed end-to-end, the number of sonic hotdogs purchased yearly would stretch from Oklahoma City to Penang Malaysia… 9, 399 miles. Sonic serves about 387 million mints!!

FAST FOOD TIPS Try for variety and balance � Watch portion size by ordering smaller choices (kids meals) � Choose broiled, roasted, or grilled items over fried options � Be careful of sauces. Try reduced or fat free sauces, mustard or hot sauces � Avoid cheese and cheese sauces � Order individually instead of “combo” or “value” meals. � Don’t assume a menu item is healthy because it “sounds healthy”. � Avoid supersizing! � Go for whole grain breads, crusts, pastas, etc. �
