NUTRIENTS
•
Carbohydrates
● Are the body’s main source of
energy.
● An important and unique example
is dietary fibre . It is a mixture of
plant materials that is not broken
down in the digestive system.
● All forms of carbohydrates, except
fibre, provide energy .
● Examples: Sugar, and starch.
SIMPLE CARBOHYDRATES
•
•
•
Are a natural part of many foods.
Also provides other nutrients such as
proteins, vitamins, and minerals.
Includes:
● Fructose found in fruits
● Maltose found in grain products
● Lactose found in milk products
● Sucrose found in plants such as
sugar cane or sugar beets. Do not
supply nutrients other than simple
carbohydrates.
COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES
•
•
Are broken into two categories:
dietary fibre and starches.
Found in legumes, lentils, peas,
potatoes, pasta, rice, breads, and
corn.
FIBRE
•
Insoluble Fibre
● Will not dissolve in water.
● Absorbs water and helps to move
food through the large intestine at a
normal rate.
● Promotes regular bowel movements
and prevents constipation.
● Lowers the risk of colon cancer.
● Found in fruit and vegetable skins
and in whole wheat or bran
products.
FIBRE
•
Soluble Fibre
● Dissolves in water.
● Increases the thickness of the
stomach contents.
● May reduce blood cholesterol levels.
● Found in fruits, vegetables, legumes,
peas, lentils, and oat products.
NUTRIENTS
•
Fat
● Are a reserve supply of energy
and act as a cushion to protect
your heart, liver and other vital
organs.
● Promote healthy skin and
normal cell growth.
● Carries vitamins A, D, E, and K
to wherever they are needed.
CHOLESTEROL
•
•
•
•
•
•
Is not a fat.
It is a fat-like substance present in all
body cells.
Needed for many essential body
processes.
Contributes to the digestion of fat and
the skin’s production of vitamin D.
Adults manufacture all the required
amount in the liver.
Transported by lipoproteins (LDL and
HDL).
CHOLESTEROL
•
LDL
Moves cholesterol from the liver to
wherever it is needed by the body.
● Too much can lead to a build-up on
artery walls. Therefore heart disease
and stroke.
●
•
HDL
●
Picks up excess and returns it to the
liver, to prevent harm.
NUTRIENTS
•
Protein
● Are nutrients that help build,
repair, and maintain body
tissues.
● Also are a source of energy.
● Examples: Complete and
incomplete
PROTEIN
•
Complete proteins
Supply all nine essential amino
acids include meat, poultry, fish,
eggs, milk products, and soy
products.
● Most Canadians get the largest
amount of their protein from
animal sources.
● Health experts recommend that
people get more of their protein
from plant sources due to the fact
●
PROTEIN
•
Incomplete proteins
All foods from plant sources supply
incomplete proteins (exception
soybeans).
● Incomplete proteins are lacking
one or more essential amino acids.

NUTRIENT SUPPLEMENTS
•
Taking a daily vitamin/mineral
supplement is common among
Canadians.
•
However, eating a healthy diet is MORE
important than taking antioxidants,
vitamins, and minerals in pill or powder
form.
Healthy foods have much more to offer
than supplements alone.
