Folate is also critical during the entire pregnancy. Vitamin B12 works with folate to make new cells Iron supplements are needed (make RBCs) Sodium restriction normally not necessary 11 Spina bifida 12 Diet-Related Concerns of Pregnancy Nausea/vomiting Food cravings and aversions Constipation Heartburn Alcohol (fetal alcohol syndrome) Caffeine & Artificial Sweeteners Seafood with high levels of methyl mercury 13 Guidelines for Eating Fish & Shellfish Do not eat Shark, Swordfish, King Mackerel, or Tilefish because they contain high levels of mercury Eat up to 12 ounces (2 average meals) a week of a variety of fish and shellfish that are lower in mercury Five of the most commonly eaten fish that are low in mercury are shrimp, canned light tuna, salmon, pollock, and catfish Another commonly eaten fish, albacore ("white") tuna has more mercury than canned light tuna. So, when choosing your two meals of fish and shellfish, you may eat up to 6 ounces (one average meal) of albacore tuna per week 14 Menu Planning Guidelines for Pregnant Women Offer a varied and balanced selection of nutrient-dense foods Choose some entrees based on legumes and/or grains and dairy products Be sure to offer dairy products made with nonfat or reduced-fat milk Use a variety of whole-grain and enriched breads, cereals, rice, etc 15 Menu Planning Guidelines for Pregnant Women Use assorted fruits and vegetables in all areas of the menu Be sure to have good sources of problems nutrients: essential fatty acids, calcium, vitamin D, magnesium, folate, vitamin B12, and iron Use iodized salt 16 MyPyramid Plan for Moms Nutrition and Menu Planning During Lactation First 6 months: additional 330 kcal needed Second 6 months: additional 400 kcal Because lactating mother normally produce about 25 ounces of milk a day, they need at least 3-4 quarts of fluids daily 18 Nutrition and Menu Planning During Lactation If the lactating mother is not eating properly, this is more likely to affect the quantity of milk she makes rather than the quality Moderate use of caffeine is okay Regular consumption of alcohol is not advised Iron supplements are needed to replenish stores 19 Infancy: The First Year of Life Infants double their birth weight in the first 4 to 5 months and then triple their birth weight by the first birthday Infants also grow 50% in length by the first birthday 20 Nutrition During Infancy Newborns need a plentiful supply of all nutrients For first 4–6 months – source of all nutrients is breast milk or formula 21 Advantages of Breast-Feeding Nutritionally superior Less apt to cause allergic reaction Suckling promotes development of infant’s jaw and teeth Promotes a close relationship Less likely to be mishandled Helps the infant build up immunities May reduce risk of chronic diseases Less expensive Breast-fed babies have lower rates of hospital admissions, ear infections, diarrhea, and other medical concerns Breast-fed infants need vitamin D at 2 months of age. 22 Breast Feeding To ensure success, the mother must breast-feed the child ASAP after delivery Colostrum – first secretion from breast, rich in proteins and antibodies Colostrum changes to transitional milk between 3rd and 6th days By the tenth day, major changes are done Suckling stimulates milk letdown 23 Formula-Feeding All formulas must meet nutrient standards set by the American Academy of Pediatrics 3 forms of formula: ready-to-feed, liquid concentrate, and powdered Soy formula is used if baby is allergic to cow milk-based formulas Some formulas contain fatty acids: DHA and AA, which are present in breast milk and may enhance mental and visual development 24 When are babies able to eat solids? When the baby can: Has doubled his/her birth weight Drinks more than 1 quart of formula/day Seems hungry often Opens his/her mouth in response to food coming Can move tongue from side to side without moving the head 25 Introduction of Solid Foods 4 – 7 months: Iron-fortified baby cereals Pureed then textured vegetables Pureed then textured fruit Fruit juice (start at 6 months, dilute at first) 26 Introduction of Solid Foods 8 – 11 months: Mashed or diced soft fruit Mashed or soft cooked vegetables Mashed egg yolk Finely cut meat/poultry Mashed cooked beans or peas Cottage cheese, yogurt, or cheese strips Pieces of soft bread Crackers 27 Introduction to Solid Foods 12 months: Cut-up table foods Whole milk Whole eggs 28 Choking Hazards Nuts and seeds Raisins Hot dogs Popcorn Whole grapes Hard candies Peanut butter Cherry tomatoes Raw carrots Many other raw fruits and veggies Fruit with pits Large chunks of any food 29 Additional Concepts Baby bottle tooth decay Pincer grasp Palmar grasp Allergies Milk Eggs Wheat Nuts Chocolate Shellfish 31 Childhood Around age 1, the baby’s growth rate decreases a lot Yearly weight gain now averages 4 to 6 pound/year and children grow about 2-3 inches per year until puberty After age 1, children start to lose baby fat, and their legs become longer By age 2, most children have all their baby teeth and can drink from a cup 32 Energy and Macronutrients for Children Estimated Energy Requirement (EER) and Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for Protein Gender and Age Height Weight EER Protein Male 1 - 3 34 inches 27 pounds 1046 kcal 1.1 g/kg Female 1 – 3 34 27 992 1.1 Male 4 – 8 45 44 1742 0.95 Female 4 – 8 45 44 1642 0.95 Children experience growth spurts and food jags 33 Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Ranges for Children Age Carbohydrate Fat Protein 1-3 years 45-65% 30-40% 5-20% 4-18 years 45-65% 25-35% 10-30% Over 18 45-65% 20-35% 10-35% 34 Tactics for Dealing with Preschoolers’ Food Habits Make mealtime as relaxing and enjoyable as possible Don’t nag, bribe, force, or cajole a child to eat. Stay calm Allow children to choose what they want from 2 or more healthy choices Let children participate in food selection and preparation 35 Tactics for Dealing with Preschoolers’ Food Habits Respect your child’s preferences when planning meals, but don’t make a quick peanut butter sandwich if dinner is rejected Have appropriately-sized utensils Eat with your child and be a good role model 36 Tactics for Dealing with Preschoolers’ Food Habits Expect your child to reject new foods at least once, if not many times. Continue presenting the new food Serve small portions Do not use desserts as a reward for eating meals Ask children to try new foods often Be consistent at mealtimes Pickiness will eventually pass 37 Menu Planning for Preschoolers Offer simply prepared foods. Avoid casseroles Present new foods to children often Offer at least 1 colorful food Vegetables are more likely to be accepted if served raw as finger foods. (for older preschoolers) Provide at least 1 soft/moist food and 1 crisp/chewy food to develop chewing skills 38 Menu Planning for Preschoolers Avoid strong-flavored and highly salted foods Offer carbohydrate foods such as breads & cereals: they are easy to hold and chew No lumpy foods! Before age 4, serve in bite-size pieces Serve foods warm, not hot Minimize choking hazards for children under 4 Serve good sources of iron, vitamin E, potassium, and fiber 39 Menu Planning for School-Age Children Serve a wide variety of foods including children’s favorites Good snack choices are important Balance menu items higher in fat with those containing less fat Pay attention to serving sizes Offer iron-rich foods Be sure to include some good sources of vitamin E, potassium, and fiber 40 Adolescence Puberty Girls: starts at age 10 or 11 Boys: starts at 12 or 13 During the 5 to 7 years of pubertal development, adolescents gain about 20% of adult height and 50% of adult weight Males now put on twice as much muscle as females. Females gain more fat 41 Nutrition During Adolescence Males now need more kcal, protein, magnesium, and zinc for muscle and bone development than females Females need increased iron due to menstruation Females have to pack more nutrients into fewer kcal than males Three problem nutrients: vitamin E, potassium, and fiber 42 Nutrition During Adolescence (cont’d) Teenagers make more of their food choices Teenagers are influenced by peers, body image, family, media, etc. Menu Planning for Adolescents Emphasize complex carbohydrates such as whole grains and legumes Offer well-trimmed lean beef, poultry, and fish Offer non-fat and low-fat milk Have nutritious foods for on-the-go eating Emphasize quick and nutritious breakfasts Emphasize foods with iron, vitamin E, potassium, fiber, calcium, and magnesium 44 45 Eating Disorders Female Athlete Triad Disordered eating No menstruation Osteoporosis Treatment for Eating Disorders includes: Individual psychotherapy Family therapy Cognitive-behavior therapy Medical nutrition Medications therapy 46 Older Adults The maximum efficiency of many organ systems occurs between 20 and 35. After age 35, the functional capability of almost every organ system declines BMR declines as we age. We lose muscle mass. The functioning of the cardiovascular system declines with age. Blood pressure increases. Pulmonary capacity decreases Kidney function deteriorates 47 Factors Affecting Nutrition Status: Physiological Disease Less muscle mass Activity levels Dentition Functional disabilities (interfere with doing daily tasks) Decreased sensitivity to taste and smell Changes in GI tract (slowing down, heartburn) Medications Diminished sense of thirst 48 Factors Affecting Nutrition Status: Psychosocial Cognitive functioning Social support 49 Factors Affecting Nutrition Status: Socioeconomic Education Income Living arrangements Availability of federally funded meals 50 Nutrition for Older Adults Nutrients of concern: Water Vitamin B12 and folate Vitamin D Calcium Zinc 51 Modified Food Pyramid for Adults Age 70 and Over 52 Menu Planning for Older Adults 1. 2. 3. 4. Offer moderately sized meals and/or half portions Emphasize high-fiber foods such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and beans Moderate the use of fat Dairy products are important sources of calcium and other nutrients 53 Menu Planning for Older Adults 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Offer adequate protein but not too much Moderate the use of salt Use herbs and spices Offer a variety of foods Fluid intake is critical Serve softer foods if chewing is a problem 54 Food Allergies A food allergy involves an abnormal immune system response. If the response doesn’t involve the immune system, it is a food intolerance. Symptoms of food allergy may include hives, rashes, stomach cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, wheezing, swelling of the lips or tongue, and itching lips The greatest danger in food allergy comes from anaphylaxis 55 Common Sites for Allergic Reactions Childhood Obesity Contributing Factors to Childhood Obesity Energy intake Physical activity Sedentary behavior Home, child care, school, and community environments can influence children’s behaviors related to food intake and physical activity Copyright ©2010 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
