1. FST 307 BASIC NUTRITION CHAPTER 2 FATE OF NUTRIENTS IN HUMAN BODY

2. FST 307 CHAPTER 2.1 DIGESTION CHAPTER OUTCOMES
At the end of this chapter, students should be able to:-
Explain briefly about the functions of digestive organs.
Describe the carbohydrate, fat and protein digestion.

3. DIGESTION Definition:
is a process where foodstuffs are broken down into smaller and simpler units
It also require enzymes to speed up reaction and hormones to control the process
Basic anatomy of the GI tract
mouth  esophagus  stomach  small intestine  large intestine

4. HUMAN DIGESTIVE SYSTEMS
If food is not digested and absorbed,
it is eliminated; doesn’t provide nutrients

5. DIGESTIVE ORGAN

6. MOUTH The mouth is the beginning of the digestive tract
Chewing breaks the food into pieces that are more easily digested, while saliva mixes with food to begin the process of breaking it down into a smaller form for body to absorb and use.
Saliva
Excreted by Salivary glands
Containing : Water, salts, mucus, enzymes

7. ESOPHAGUS Located in throat near trachea
Esophagus receives food from mouth when swallow.
By means of a series of muscular contractions called peristalsis, the esophagus delivers food to stomach

8. STOMACH
The stomach is a hollow organ, or "container," that holds food while it is being mixed with gastric juice (enzymes, water & HCl) that continue the process of breaking down food into a usable form.
Cells in the lining of the stomach secrete a strong HCl and powerful enzymes that are responsible for the breakdown process.
Goblet cell secrete mucin to form mucus
When the contents of the stomach are sufficiently processed, they are released into the small intestine.

9. PANCREAS
Pancreas secretes pancreatic juice (enzymes and bicarbonate) into the duodenum, the first segment of the small intestine.
These enzymes break down protein, fats, and carbohydrates.
The pancreas also makes insulin, secreting it directly into the bloodstream. Insulin is the chief hormone for metabolizing sugar.

10. LIVER
Its main function within the digestive system is to process the nutrients absorbed from the small intestine.
Bile from the liver secreted into the small intestine also plays an important role in digesting fat.
It is the body’s chemical "factory“ where it takes the raw materials absorbed by the intestine and makes all the various chemicals the body needs to function.
The liver also detoxifies potentially harmful chemicals. It breaks down and secretes many drugs.

11. GALLBLADDER
It stores and concentrates bile, and then releases it into the duodenum to help absorb and digest fats.

12. SMALL INTESTINE
It is a 22-foot long muscular tube that breaks down food using enzymes released by the pancreas and bile from the liver.
Made up of three segments
Duodenum - responsible for the continuous breaking down process
Jejunum - absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream
Ileum - absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream

13. Peristalsis is also working in this organ, moving food through and mixing it with digestive secretions from the pancreas and liver.
Contents of the small intestine start out semi-solid, and end in a liquid form after passing through the organ.
Once the nutrients have been absorbed and the leftover-food residue liquid has passed through the small intestine, it then moves on to the large intestine, or colon.

14. LARGE INTESTINE
The colon is a 6-foot long muscular tube that connects the small intestine to the rectum.
The large intestine is made up of the cecum (pronounce “seh-kum”), the ascending (right) colon, the transverse (across) colon, the descending (left) colon, and the sigmoid colon, which connects to the rectum.
The appendix is a small tube attached to the cecum.
The large intestine is a highly specialized organ that is responsible for processing waste so that emptying the bowels is easy and convenient.

16. CARBOHYDRATE DIGESTION

18. LIPID / FAT DIGESTION

20. BILE IN FAT DIGESTION

21. PROTEIN DIGESTION

23. PAUSE TO PONDER…
Can you explain briefly about the functions of digestive organs?
Ask your friend to describe the carbohydrate, fat and protein digestion.

24. FST 207 CHAPTER 2.2 ABSORPTION & TRANSPORTATION
CHAPTER OUTCOMES
At the end of this chapter, students should be able to:-
Explain briefly about types of absorption and nutrients transportation.
Describe briefly about carbohydrate, fat and protein absorption and transportation.

25. NUTRIENTS ABSORPTION

26. TYPES OF ABSORPTION Passive without carrier or energy expenditure
[nutrient] in intestine > [nutrient] in absorptive cells
Water, small lipid and some minerals
Facilitative
need a carrier molecule but no energy expenditure
WSV & fructose

27. Active
need a carrier molecule and energy (ATP)
[nutrient] in intestine < [nutrient] in absorptive cells
glucose, galactose, amino acids, others
Phagocytosis/pinocytosis
phagocytosis "cell eating"
pinocytosis "cell drinking"
absorptive cells engulf compounds or liquid
ex. infant absorbs antibodies from mother's milk

28. ABSORPTION

29. NUTRIENTS TRANSPORTATION

32. CARBOHYDRATE ABSORPTION & TRANSPORTATION

34. LIPID / FAT ABSORPTION & TRANSPORTATION

36. LIPID TRANSPORT
Lipoproteins – particles containing a core of lipids surrounded by a shell of protein and phospholipid.
Classification of lipoprotein:
Chylomicrons
VLDL = very-low-density lipoproteins
LDL = low-density lipoproteins
HDL = high-density lipoproteins

38. LIPOPROTEINS AND HEALTH
LDL vs. HDL

39. PROTIEN ABSORPTION & TRANSPORTATION

41. VITAMIN ABSORPTION & TRANSPORTATION

42. Vitamins are absorbed primarily in the small intestine
Fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed along with fats and transported in lipoproteins
Some water-soluble vitamins require active transport, or special carrier molecules for absorption
Some vitamins are absorbed as an inactive provitamin, which is converted to the active form in the body

44. DIGESTION & ABSORPTION FLOW OF A SANDWISH

47. PAUSE TO PONDER…
Please explain briefly about types of absorption and nutrients transportation.
Describe briefly about carbohydrate, fat and protein absorption and transportation.
