Germ: "embryo", source of oil & vit E
🗑
|
||||
Carbohydrates compared to other nutrients in a diet | Basis of most modern diets and accounts for 45-65% of my plate guidelines.
🗑
|
||||
Whole vs Refined | refined grains are mostly the endosperm & starch and maybe enriched with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, iron, and fortified with folate. DO NOT contain madnesium, vit E, and some B vits or other nutrients of whole grains.
🗑

||||
Photosynthesis | Plants convert glucose to starch.
Humans eat plants convert starch to glucose.

Hydrolysis | Chemical reaction that breaks down sugar molecules
🗑
|
||||
Condensation Reaction | Chemical reaction that links two sugar molecules together
🗑
|
||||
Maltose | Glucose + glucose - starch - formed in digestive tract when starch is digested
🗑
|

Soluble Fiber | Fiber dissolves in water.
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
Lactose Intolerance | Enzyme lactase is needed to digest lactose. Must be digested in small intestine, if not then moves to lg intestine. Causes cramping, abdominal distention and diarrhea.
🗑
|
||||
Indigestible carbs | Resistant starch, Oligosaccharides, and fiber, are not digested and can affect transit time, type of instestinal microflora, intestinal gas, and nutrient absorption.
🗑
|
||||
Fiber inhibits absorption of | Cholesterol & bile (soluble fiber)
Minerals, Zinc, Calcium, Magnesium, Iron
Slows absorption of glucose by increasing volume and thickness of food *bulk*
🗑
|
||||
Regulation of Blood *sugar* Glucose | concentration of glucose is regulated by the liver and by enzymes secreted from the pancreas.
🗑
|
||||
Glycemic Response | How quickly and how high glucose rises after carbohydrate consumption.
🗑
|
||||
Glycemic Index | Ranking of how a food affects the glycemic response
🗑
|
||||
Glycemic Load | Calculated by a food's glycemic index by the amount of available carbs in a serving.
🗑
|
||||
Cellulalr Respiration | One glucose molecule creates 38 molecules of ATP, 6 molecules of H2O, 6 molecules of carbon dioxide.
🗑

||||
Diabetes Mellitus | Leading cause of blindness and accounts for 44% of new cases of kidney failure in US.
🗑
|
||||
Gestational Diabetes | Occurs in women who are pregnant and increases risk of type 2 diabetes later in life.

Low Carb diets | Produce more ketones which help suppress appetite.
🗑
|
||||
Carbs and heart disease | diets high in fiber found to reduce heart disease because water soluble fiber binds to cholesterol and reduces absorption of cholesterol.
