Permission required for reproduction or display. 1 Chapter 18 Nutrition and Metabolism Nutrients – chemical substances supplied by the environment required for survival Macronutrients • carbohydrates • proteins • fats Micronutrients • vitamins • minerals Essential Nutrients • nutrients human cells cannot synthesize such as certain amino acids 2 Substances Controlling Appetite 3 Hormones Control Body Weight 4 Carbohydrates Organic compounds primarily used to supply cellular energy Sources • sugars • starches • usually from plant sources • glycogen in meats RDA is 125-175g Excesses lead to • obesity • dental caries • nutritional deficits Deficiencies lead to • metabolic acidosis • weight loss 5 Carbohydrate Utilization • oxidized for energy • production of certain molecules (ribose, deoxyribose) • stored in liver and muscles as glycogen • converted to fats and stored in adipose tissue 6 Carbohydrate Utilization 7 Lipids Organic compounds that supply energy and are used to build cell structures Excesses lead to Sources • obesity • meats • increased serum • eggs cholesterol • milk • increased risk of • lard heart diseases • plant oils RDA is 80-100g Deficiencies lead to • weight loss • skin lesions • hormonal imbalances 8 Lipid Utilization • oxidized for energy • production of triglycerides, phospholipids, lipoproteins, and cholesterol • stored in adipose tissue • glycerol may be used to synthesize glycerol 9 Lipid Utilization 10 Lipid Utilization The liver uses fatty acids to synthesize a variety of lipids. 11 Proteins Organic compounds that serve as structural materials, act as enzymes, and provide energy Sources • meats • cheeses • nuts • legumes RDA is 0.8g/kg body weight or 10% of diet Excesses lead to obesity Deficiencies lead to • extreme weight loss • muscle wasting • anemia • growth retardation 12 Protein Utilization • build cell structures • enzymes • hormones • transport of oxygen • regulation of water balance • control of pH • formation of antibodies • can be converted to carbohydrates or fats • may be broken down and oxidized for energy 13 Protein Utilization 14 Protein Utilization 15 Nitrogen Balance • amount of nitrogen taken in is equal to amount excreted • negative nitrogen balance develops from starvation • positive nitrogen balance develops in growing children, pregnant women, or an athlete in training 16 Carbohydrate, Lipid and Protein Nutrients 17 Energy Values of Food Calorie – indicates amount of potential energy a food contains Carbohydrates 4.1 calories per gram Lipids 9.5 calories per gram Proteins 4.1 calories per gram 18 Energy Requirements Basal metabolic rate (BMR) • rate at which body expends energy at rest • primarily reflects energy needed to support activities of organs • varies with gender, body size, body temperature, and endocrine function Energy needed • to maintain BMR • to support muscular activity • to maintain body temperature • for growth in children and pregnant women 19 Energy Balance • occurs when caloric intake in the form of food equals caloric output from BMR and muscular activities • positive energy balance leads to weight gain 20 Desirable Weight • most common nutritional disorders involve caloric imbalances • overweight is defined as exceeding desirable weight by 10% - 20% • obesity occurs when person is 20% above desired weight due to excess adipose tissue 21 Vitamins • Organic compounds (other than carbohydrates, lipids and proteins) that are essential for normal metabolic processes • Cannot be synthesized by body cells in adequate
