PEH 2 REVIEW

2ND SEM PRELIMS, 11-BLSD. GABRIELA

QuestionAnswer
is the health branch that stresses the importance of food for growth and development, as well as lowering the chances of acquiring diseases and illnesses. It relies on the mix of food with varying nutrients that we need to eat every day. Nutrition
They are important food substances that help our body function properly. It provides energy and facilitates the growth and repair of cells Nutrition
A substance required in relatively large amounts by living organisms. Macronutrients
4 Food Groups Included in Macronutrients Proteins, Carbohydrates, Fats, & Water
Needed for growth, building, and repair of body tissues. Enough protein is essential to maintain muscle mass and strength, but eating more of this macronutrient does not yield bigger muscles. Proteins
Main source of energy – maintains blood glucose level during exercise and replaces glycogen stores after exercise. Carbohydrates
Needed for immune system function and help the body store and use vitamins. It is stored to provide enough energy for long endurance events. Fats
Needed for waste removal, regulates body temperature, and cushions the spinal cord & joints. Water
Such as vitamins and minerals are only needed in very small amounts. – They all help our bodies produce enzymes, hormones, and other substances critical for growth and development Micronutrients
Maintains healthy skin, bones, teeth, and hair. It also aids vision. Vitamin A
Important in the production of energy from carbohydrates and fats. Vitamin B
Needed to break down glycogen to release glucose and make hemoglobin that carries oxygen in the blood. Vitamin B6
Aids in the maintenance of red blood cells. Vitamin B12
Aid bone, teeth, and skin formation and resistance to infection. It helps protect the body from oxidative damage Vitamin E and C
Aids in the formation of red blood cells and protein. Folate
Help in regulating the chemical reactions in the body. Minerals
Helps build and maintain bones & teeth; nerve & muscle function & blood clotting. Needed to maintain blood calcium levels and promote bone density. Calcium
Helps carry out body processes; plays a role in immune function, protein synthesis, and wound healing. Zinc
Helps in energy metabolism; important in transporting oxygen through the bloodstream. It is important during exercise for the formation of hemoglobin, myoglobin, and other iron-containing proteins that are essential for energy production. Iron
Eating a carbohydrate-rich meal three to four hours --------- exercise boosts blood glucose and glycogen for energy. A moderate amount of protein aids recovery. Keep the meal low in fat and fiber to avoid digestive issues. Before Exercise
Proper food intake ------- exercise enhances endurance and performance, helps prevent fatigue, and supplies glucose to working muscles. The required amount varies with exercise duration During Exercise
It's crucial to eat ------ exercise to replenish glycogen. The amount and timing depend on the exercise's duration and intensity. After Exercise
Insufficient intake of carbohydrates, fats, and protein can hinder achieving peak performance. Resistance exercise relies on carbohydrates for energy, while endurance exercise requires both fats and carbohydrates. Poor Performance
Exercise causes minor muscle damage, leading to repair and growth in muscle mass, strength, and endurance. It highlights that the first two hours post-exercise are crucial for recovery. Long Recovery
Stress hormones are produced during exercise, helping to release stored energy like body fat. However, if these hormones stay elevated, immune system function can be compromised. Immune Suppression
Exercise and diet modification are key for weight loss. Crash and fad diets fail because they result in the loss of both fat and muscle mass. A successful weight loss strategy preserves or improves muscle while significantly reducing fat. Weight Changes
