FOOD CLASSES Food and Diet

 Classes of Food - Carbohydrates - Proteins - Fats - Vitamins - Minerals - Fibre - Water

 Carbohydrates 1. Carbohydrates are organic compound made up of carbon,hydrogen and oxygen. 2. Carbohydrates gives us the most energy. 3. The ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2:1. 4. Carbohydrates includes sugar, starch, simple sugar and cellulose. 5. Examples of food rich in carbohydrates are rice, bread, potatoes, flour and sugar.

Proteins 1. Proteins are organic compound containing carbon,hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. 2. Sulphur and phosphorus are sometimes present. 3. A molecule of protein is made up of large number of subunits called amino acids. 4. Proteins are needed for growth and the repair of body tissues. 5. They are also needed for formation of enzymes, hormones, haemoglobin and antibodies. 6. Examples of proteins are milk, fish, eggs, chicken and bean curd. Proteins are made by connecting amino acids together.

 Fats 1. Fats are compound of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. 2. Fats is stored under the skin or around the body. 3. Fats helps us keep warm and protects organs from damage. 4. Fats helps us tranports vitamins A, D, E and K. 5. Fats consists of *8smaller unit of fatty acids combined with glycerol.

 Vitamins 1. Vitamins are organic compounds needed in small amounts by our body for health and growth. 2. Vitamins are divided into two groups which are water-soluble vitamins and fat-soluble vitamins. 3. Water-soluble vitamins are vitamins B and C, whereas fat- soluble vitamins are vitamins A, D, E and K.

 Minerals Minerals are organic substances needed in our body in small amounts for healthy growth and development.

 Fibre  1. Fibre is also known as roughage. 2. Fibre is made up of cellulose from plant cell walls. 3. Fibre CANNOT be digested in our body. 4. Fibre holds a lot of water so that our faeces remains soft and can pass from our body easily. 5. Fibre can prevents constipation.

 Water 1. Water makes up 70% of our body. 2. Water is the main components of our blood and body fluids. 3. Water can dissolve a lot of other chemicals in our body and allows chemical to react. 4. Waste substances such as urea and salts are passed from our body in water. 5. Water helps us to regulate our body temperature. 6. Water lost through urine and sweat MUST be replaced.
