Document Summary
Nutrition: the science of foods and the nutrients they contain, and of their actions within the body. Kinesiol 1f03 notes psychological implications of food and eating. Food choices are based on: preferences (taste), habit, tradition, social interactions, availability, convenience, economy, positive/negative associations, emotions, values, body weight/image, health benefits. Organic: carbon-based, contain h and o as well. Carbs, fats, and vitamins contain c h o, proteins contain c h o and n (often measure nitrogen stores in body to determine muscle mass) Alcohol: 7 kcal/g (not considered a nutrient because it interferes with body"s growth, maintenance, and repair) Foods with high energy density deliver more kcalories per gram than foods with low energy density. Energy dense does not mean nutrient dense (nutrient dense means having a good variety of c, p, f, vit. , and min) Fuel (supports all body activities, as well as storage for later use) Raw materials for building body tissues and regulating activities (particularly protein)
