2. Mrs. Kramkowski Fats & Proteins

3. What is a Fat? Essential part of our diets Supplies body with power Gives more energy than any other nutrient: 1 gram = 9 kcal Types of fats: Saturated and Unsaturated Do you know the difference between the two?

4. Fats 20- 30% of our total calories Transports vitamins Are long term energy stores Aids in thermal insulation (especially around organs) Doesn’t dissolve in water Helps flavor food

5. Face the Fats! Using the website: www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/ www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/ Look up each food and list the amount of total fat, saturated fat, and unsaturated fat. Then,answer the questions.

6. “Good Fats” Unsaturated: Fats that are liquid at room temperature Monounsaturated fats: found in plant foods such as canola, peanut,+ olive oils, nuts, avocados. The fat in meats (beef, pork, and poultry) Polyunsaturated fats: found in plant foods such as corn, sunflower + sesame oils, nuts, and seeds, as well as fish and seafood.

7. “Bad Fats” Saturated fats and Tans Fats Solid at room temperature Animal fats, butter, and tropical oils Can lead to obesity Associated with heart disease and atherosclerosis

8. Name that Fat! Saturated, Monounsaturated, Polyunsaturated or Trans Fat?? 1.Tuna 2.Butter 3.Canola Oil 4. Avocados 5. Pork fat(Lard) 6. Margarine 1.P 2.S 3.M 4.M 5.S 6.T

11. Why Do We Need To Know About Limits on Fats and Oils? Limit saturated and trans fat Raise blood cholesterol Increases LDL= bad Heart attacks Stroke Check Nutrition labels https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo4Lrce5EiI

12. Fat Functions 3 Functions: 1. Energy 2. Insulation 3. Vitamin Absorption: A,D,E and K

13. Cholesterol Saturated fats may increase the level of cholesterol, a waxy, fat-like substance produced by body. Important: cell membranes and nerve tissues production of sex hormones testosterone and progesterone bile salts used to break down food form vitamin D Found only in foods that come from animals

14. Cholesterol Transported in the blood in two forms. LDL (low-density lipoproteins) “bad” form HDL (high-density lipoproteins) “good” form Exercise has been proven to raise HDL Low-fat diets lower LDL

15. What Have We Learned? What is a fat? What types of fats are there? What are good fats and bad fats? (give examples) What are the functions of fats (Hint:3 ) What is Cholesterol?

16. Proteins Proteins are made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms that are formed into basic units called amino acids. There are 20 different amino acids. 9 of them are essential 11 amino acids produced by the body What foods contain protein?

17. Types of Proteins Complete ProteinsIncomplete Proteins

18. Low Quality Proteins An incomplete protein One or more limiting amino acids Usually from plant-derived foods Legumes and nuts

19. High Quality Proteins A complete protein Contains extra amino acids for protein synthesis Good digestibility Usually from animal-derived foods

20. Pairing Incomplete Proteins proteins that are incomplete can be combined with other proteins to provide a full complement of all essential amino acids.

21. “Go Lean with Protein” Many foods in the protein group are high in fat. What are some ways that you can decrease the fats you get from the protein foods group? In small groups of 2-3 come up with 5 ways to reduce fat from your proteins. List and describe how you would do so.

22. Choosing Healthy Proteins Limit consumption of red meats Use Low-fat dairy products Choose learner cuts of meat Drain fat from cooked meats Reduce the amount of meat you use in recipes

23. Choosing Health Proteins Try different typed of proteins: grains + nuts Choose cuts that are lower in fat Example 85/15 Bake don’t fry Eat more fish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1p0LEWP7r4g

24. Recommendations 56 grams for men (per day) 46 grams for women (per day) Active adults + athletes often benefit from exceeding these minimum daily needs. Many variations

25. What Have We Learned? What are proteins? What kinds of foods contain proteins? What are complete and incomplete proteins? How can you make healthier protein choices?
