With clear evidence linking seven of the leading causes of death in the United States to poor diet, choosing the right foods and making positive lifestyle changes are important investments in your health. Although regular exercise is also paramount to fitness, it must be coupled with a healthy diet and healthy weight management for optimal health. Food Health Equation • Food supplies – Energy in the form of calories – Essential vitamins & minerals – Phytochemicals – Fluids – Fiber – Enjoyment, satiety and sometimes conflict – Too little, too much or poor choices can lead to issues with weight, health and self-esteem Role of Overweight/Obesity in Health and Quality of life 65% of adults are either overweight or obese. Overweight = 25 -29.9; Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater • Obesity is one of the leading causes of • • preventable deaths in the US. Obesity compromises overall health, quality of life of individuals and families and drives up health care costs for everyone. Optimal diet and exercise are paramount to preventing weight gain, for weight loss/ management and promoting overall health. Where do calories come from? Macro Nutrients • • • • • Protein: 4 Kcal/gram Carbohydrate: 4 kcal/gram Fat: 9 kcal/gram ADA recommends 2,200 -2,900 per day but likely an over estimate as population is getting more sedentary. (1,800 more realistic for most women today). Other sources of calories and/or nutrients – – – – Water: 0 kcal/ gram Vitamins: 0 kcal/gram Minerals: 0 kcal/gram Alcohol: 7 kcal/gram Protein • Protein: Needed for daily maintenance of tissues and recovery from exercise and along with resistance training, healthy diet and rest, builds muscles – Recommendations: • General public - .4 -.5 g/lb body wt/day • • • – e.g. 150 lb person needs 70 - 75 grams pro/day Endurance athletes – .6 -.7g/lb body wt/day Resistance training – .9 g/lb body wt/day Weight loss – may need more than general population when on restricted calories as some may be used for energy rather than maintenance – and for preserving lean body mass • Choose sources of lean protein including NF dairy, fish, lean beef, poultry, legumes, soy products, whey protein Carbohydrates (CHO) • Chief source of energy for all bodily functions and • • • • • • • muscular exertion Also regulate the digestion and utilization of protein and fat Include sugars (simple), starches (complex) and fiber (soluble and insoluble) Carbohydrate spares protein, so it can do it’s job of repairing and maintaining lean body mass Insufficient carbohydrate will reduce energy and capacity for exercise Choose carbohydrates wisely and aim for whole grains, fruits and vegetables Limit intake of sugars and processed grains that have bran and germ layers removed (refined flour) Rule of thumb: Choose fewer sources of white flour, refined starches and added sugars Fat • Some fat is needed in the diet to provide essential fatty acids, for absorption of fat soluble vitamins, production of hormones, protecting organs, cell membranes and satiety. • ↓ Saturated found in whole dairy and meats and many processed foods – too much associated with increased risk of CVD • ↓ Trans Fatty Acids formed from hydrogenation increase LDL “bad cholesterol” • ↑ Unsaturated (considered the more healthy fats) – Monounsaturated found in nuts, olives, canola oil, avocado – Polyunsaturated found in vegetable oils, omega 3 in cold water fish • Recommendation is 15-35% of calories.
