Question
Answer
What does CHO stand for   Carbohydrates  
🗑
what are the sources of CHO   Plant foods- 1.grain cereal, 2.veggies, 3.fruits, 4.nuts, 5.sugars  
🗑
what are the types of CHO   1.Monosaccharides(simple form), 2.Disaccharids(pairs of mono's), 3.Polysaccharides(Complex CHO's)  
🗑
What are the names the types of Monosaccharides   1.glucose, 2.Fructose, 3.Galactose  
🗑
What are the names the types of Disaccharides   1.Sucrose, 2.Malotose, 3.Lactose  
🗑
What are the names the types of Polysaccharides   1.Starch, 2.Glycogen, 3.Cellulose  
🗑
How does Monosaccharides digest/absorb in the body   Directly absorbed in bllod stream  
🗑
How does Disaccharides digest/absorb in the body   converted to simple then into blood stream  
🗑
How does Polysaccharides digest/absorb in the body   Starch-starts in the mouth and complete in small intestine then absorbed into the blood stream  
🗑
Name 2 things related to all CHO's in relation to digestion and absorption   All CHO has to be changed to glucose before it can be used by the bodies cells. Any excess glucose is converted to glycogen &stored in liver & muscles, but if too much, the rest is converted to fat & stored in adipose tissue as Tryglycerides  
🗑
What is the purpose of CHO   To 1.provide energy, and 2.provide fiber  
🗑
What is the function of CHO   For 1.protein sparing, 2.normal fat metabolism,  
🗑
what is the types of proteins (PRO)   1.incomlpete-lacks one or more amino acids, & 2.complete-has all essential amino acids  
🗑
What are the sources of PRO   Plants and animals  
🗑
What are some sources of (incomplete)Plant porteins   1.corn, 2.grains, 3.peanuts, 4.peas, 5.beans, 6.nuts, 7.seeds  
🗑
what are some sources of (complete)animal proteins   1.eggs, 2.meat, 3.fish, 4.milk, 5.poultry  
🗑
What is non-essential amino acids & how many are there   They are amino acids that the body produces, and there are 11  
🗑
What is essential amino acids and how many are there   They are amino acids that the body can't produce BUT must have for normal G&D. there are 9  
🗑
What is the function or purpose of proteins   It is for 1.the building and repair of body tissues, 2.to regulate body functions, 3.and provide energy (1gm=4cal)  
🗑
when does digestion and absorption of proteins take place   Mechanically-starts in the mouth by teeth grinding... chemically-starts in stomach & ends in small intestine where amino acids carried by blood to all body tissues  
🗑
What does the term PROTEIN stand for   "Of first importance" = Greek  
🗑
what is the purpose of Fat   To 1.provide energy, 2.provide satiety to meals, 3.protect & support organs & bones, 4.insulation from the cold, 5.& is essintial for the structure and function of the body tissues  
🗑
What are food sources of fats   Animal and Plant  
🗑
What are the yypes of fats   1.cholesterol, 2.saturated, 3.monosaturated, and 4.polysaturated fats  
🗑
How are fats digested/absorpted   by a complex process- most digestion occurs in small intestine. Bile emulsifies fats and pancreatic enzimes separate to fatty acids  
🗑
What is the range for VLDL   55-65% TRI  
🗑
What is the range for LDL   45% chol with few TRI  
🗑
What is the purpose of HDL   Choleterol to liver for excretion  
🗑
