6. Nutrients and Nutrition
The fuel your body uses comes from nutrients.
nutrients Substances in food that your body needs to carry out its normal functions
Your body is like a car. It needs fuel to run. The fuel you body uses comes from food, or more specifically from nutrients. There are over forty kinds of nutrients. Some give you energy, others provide the building blocks your body needs to grow and to repair itself. You need to eat a variety of foods each day to supply yourself with different nutrients.

7. Nutrients and Nutrition
The question of what nutrients your body needs is the subject of nutrition.
nutrition The process of taking in food and using it for energy, growth, and good health

8. DO NOW
Directions: Try to remember what you have eaten this past weekend. You do not have to list every single food that you have eaten but at least 6 different ones. Next, write them down on your notebook and classify them as one of the 6 main nutrients. For example: Bread=Carbohydrate.

9. Six Categories of Nutrients
The 6 Basic Nutrients
Six Categories of Nutrients
Carbohydrates
Fats
Proteins
Vitamins
Minerals
Water
Eating a variety of different nutrients is important to good health.

10. Complex Carbohydrates
The fuel you body gets the most mileage from is carbohydrates.
carbohydrates Sugars and starches contained in foods
Carbohydrates are broken down by a process called digestion
Simple Carbohydrates
Complex Carbohydrates
Sugars
(fruits, milk, table sugar)
Starches
(bread, rice, pasta, beans, vegetables)
The body cannot use these nutrients directly. First, the body must break them down through the process of digestion.

11. Fiber is a complex carbohydrate that cannot be digested.
Carbohydrates
Fiber is a complex carbohydrate that cannot be digested.
fiber Tough, stringy part of raw fruits, raw vegetables, whole wheat, and other whole grains
You will learn more about digestion in Chapter 7.
Fiber helps carry wastes out of your body.

12. Proteins promote healing and aid in the repair of tissues.
proteins Nutrients that provide the building blocks your body needs for growth
Proteins
Fish, chicken, beef, eggs, milk, beans, nuts, soy-based products

13. Fats
Fats carry certain vitamins in your blood stream and help keep your skin healthy.
fats A nutrient found in fatty animal tissue and plant oils
Fats help you feel full after a meal. They are also a source of energy for your body. Although fats are important, you only need small amounts in your diet.
Health problems related to eating too much fat usually appear later in life, but can be traced to unhealthy eating habits developed earlier in life. Salad dressings, doughnuts, and fried foods are often high in fat. You should only eat small amounts of these foods.
Eating too many fatty foods can contribute to heart disease and obesity.

14. Vitamins help your body use other nutrients and fight disease.
vitamins Nutrients that help regulate body functions
Some vitamins, such as vitamin C and the B-complex vitamins, need to be replaced daily. Other vitamins—including vitamins A, D, E, and K—are stored in your body. Vitamin A is important for good vision. Vitamin D promotes strong bones and teeth.
Foods rich in vitamins include fruits, vegetables, some meats, and whole-grain breads.

15. Like vitamins, minerals are needed in only small amounts.
minerals Elements in foods that help your body work properly
Some people take supplements to get extra vitamins and minerals. Food sources are the best. Eating a variety of foods will help you get the nutrients you need. Always check with a parent or guardian before taking any vitamin or mineral supplements.
Calcium helps build strong bones and teeth. Iron contributes to healthy blood.

16. Two-thirds of your body is water (about 58%).
Water carries other nutrients around your body.
Water helps with digestion.
Drink when you are thirsty and with meals to help your body get enough water.
A person can become more resilient by having a “can do” attitude and not being discouraged by disappointment.

17. Water Most of the weight of these foods is from water.
A person can become more resilient by having a “can do” attitude and not being discouraged by disappointment.

32. Weight Problems and Teens
Some children and teens are becoming obese, which means they are significantly overweight.
People who are obese are at risk for developing diseases such a diabetes and heart disease.
The number of overweight young people has risen dramatically in the past twenty years. Being overweight can slow down your performance in school and have a negative effect on your self-esteem.

33. Treatment for Obese Teens
Obese teens should be under a doctor’s care.
Obese teens should reach a healthy weight slowly.
The best approach is to avoid gaining weight as your body grows.

34. Respect for Others’ Bodies and Feelings
Some teens tease peers who are overweight or underweight. This type of behavior shows a lack of respect. It is a form of bias, acting cruelly to those who look different. A person who does this is not demonstrating good character.

35. Body Image and the Teen Years
Like your self-concept, your body image may differ from how others see you.
body image How you view your body
It is important to note that most people do not look like those you see on television or in magazines. Instead of comparing yourself to others, try to be realistic about your body. Bodies come in all shapes and sizes. Take care of your body by eating healthfully and staying active. These habits will help you look and feel better.
Comparing yourself to images from the media can lead to a negative body image.

36. Eating Disorders
People who feel they may need to lose weight when they really don’t are at risk for developing an eating disorder.
eating disorder An extreme eating behavior that can seriously damage the body
Some teens, and even some adults, become overly concerned with their weight. They might have a negative body image. Eating disorders are most common among teen girls and young women.

37. Eating Disorders
Two of the most common eating disorders are anorexia nervosa and bulimia.
Anorexia: People with anorexia are overly concerned with weigh gain. They may starve themselves
Bulimia: People with bulimia eat large amounts of food, then “purge” themselves by vomiting or taking laxatives.
People with anorexia are overly concerned with weigh gain. They may starve themselves. They eat fewer calories that they need to stay healthy.
People with bulimia eat large amounts of food, then “purge” themselves by vomiting or taking laxatives. Victims of bulimia may exercise excessively to burn off the calories from the foods they eat.

38. Treatment for Eating Disorders
A person with an eating disorder should get help right away.
The sooner a person gets treatment, the better his or her chances of recovering.
Eating disorders can affect normal growth and development. If you are concerned that you or someone you know may have an eating disorder, talk to a trusted adult.

The MyPlate Food Guidance was developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).
How do you know which foods give your body the nutrients it needs? MyPyramid can help you decide.
MyPlate A system designed to help Americans make healthful food choices

44. Do Now
Create a top 10 food list that you are going to eat for the next four days. Please consider to write down calories, total calories, total fat, carbohydrates, protein, sugar, at least two vitamins. Record all these information before next Monday (Sep/19) for each food.

45. A Closer Look at MyPlate
MyPlate is designed to help each person develop a personal eating plan based on how many calories he or she needs.
calorie A unit of heat that measures the energy available in foods
If you are physically active on most days, your body needs more calories than someone who is not physically active. MyPyramid estimates that females between the ages of 9 and thirteen need 1,600 to 2,200 calories per day based on activity level. Males in the same age group need 1,800 to 2,600 calories per day.
The amount of calories your body needs is based on your age, gender, and how physically active you are.

47. You should eat a variety of foods
You should eat a variety of foods. In this graphic, a different food group appears for each color band. The figure going up the stairs is a reminder that regular physical activity should be a part of your lifestyle.
Grains—the orange group: Girls should have five to seven 1-ounce equivalents of grain products each day. Boys should have six to nine 1-ounce equivalents.
Vegetables—the Green Group: Most boys need 2½ to 3 ½ cups of vegetables a day, girls 2 to 3 cups.
Fruits—the Red Group: Most girls and boys should have 1½ to 2 cups from this group daily.
Milk—the Blue Group: Boys and girls should both have 3 cups of milk or other foods made from milk.
Meats and Beans—the Purple Group: Most girls should have 5 to 6 ounces from the meat or beans group every day. Most boys should have 5–6½ ounces.
The narrow yellow band in MyPyramid represents fats and other foods you should eat only in small amounts.
