Chocolate sweet abusers and why may consuming a lot choclate cause you to skip breakfast. (just read)
"Sweet abusers"( eat sweets 3x a time or more) — High consumption of sweets = poor diet because sugar lacks vitamins and minerals Why might this cause you to skip breakfast? — Snacking on chocolate at night not hungry in the morning — (Should eat less chocolate for snack at night to eat wholesome breakfast)
Enriched and fortified and Refined foods and risks and benefits of having them or reducing them Increase refined diet = ? • Increase whole grain diet = ?
(Germ and bran (is a fiber) removed in milling process •Contain most of vitamins and minerals) • Enriched = 1943 FDA mandated that nutrients lost be replaced • Fortification: addition of vitamin or mineral to foods it was not originally present • Refined: strips grains of their bran and germ (removes fiber, antioxidants, minerals, other compounds) • Increase refined diet = increased risk of chronic diseases • Increase whole grain diet = 20-40% decrease risk of heart disease and stroke
Fish and Heart Health If good health is you wish, get hooked on fish. Research indicates that fish may guard against (question on quiz) What does Omega-3 help with, and can you eat too much fish?
(Guards against heart disease, hypertension, cancer, arthritis, etc). Omega-3 fatty acids → What do these help with? Block many harmful biochemical reactions that can cause blood to clot and heart to beat irregularly Don't eat too much fish (Be cautious) because of the methylmercury from pollution in oceans (Fish highest in Omega-3 = methylmercury)

Age, race, and genetics • What percentage of people over 65 have high blood pressure? 70% • What percent of hypertension cases have known causes? 10%
Calculate grams of fat to include in a healthy diet. DCC
1. Determine your total daily calories: There are several ways to do this, including consulting a registered dietitian, using online calculators, or following a general guideline based on your age, sex, activity level, and goals. 2. Calculate the percentage of fat you should consume: Multiply your total daily calories by the recommended fat intake range (20-35%). For example, if you need 2,000 calories per day, you should consume 400-700 calories from fat. 3. Convert calories to grams of fat: Divide the calories from fat by 9, the number of calories per gram of fat. For example, 400 calories is equal to 44 grams of fat, and 700 calories is equal to 78 grams of fat. Therefore, for a 2,000 calorie diet, the recommended range for fat intake is 44-78 grams per day.
counting calories (concept)
1. Estimate your RMR (resting metabolic rate) :calories your body need to live multiply healthy weight by 10 (If you are significantly overweight use an adjusted weight; halfway from where you want to be and where you are Example healthy weight at 120, person ways 160Ib, half = 140Ib (120+160)/2)) 2.Add calories for your acts of daily living (adl) 60-80% for very active; 41-59% for moderately active; 20% - 40% for sedentary Equation (excluding purposeful exercise)= RMR*(active or sedentary) + RMR Ex: RMR = 1,200*50% (moderately active) + 1200 = 1,800 cal/day 3.Add calories =purposeful exercise (exercising/working out on purpose, not walking around the house) Based on how many calories burned Subtract 20% to lose weight Equation =Calories of daily diet - calories of daily diet*20% Example = 2,200 calories- 400 (2,220*0.20) = 1,800 People under 150 pounds try to lose 0.5-1 pound per week over 150Ib 1-2Ib Calories come from carbohydrate (4 cal/g), protein (4 cal/g), alcohol (7 cal/g), and fat (9 cal/g) a day
Glycemic loading How can this help manage blood sugar levels? How can this help manage blood sugar levels? Does research show performance benefits from GI theories?
11. True Athletes muscles can readily take up carbs from the bloodstream (How quickly the amount of carbs in a portion of food raised glucose levels) — (Based on standard serving) How can this help manage blood sugar levels? Low levels of exercise reduce the body's ability to metabolize sugar well and high levels of exercise metabolize sugar well and strong muscles take up carbs without much sugar. No, evidence varies
Example: Sally weighs 140, but 130 healthfully. She is moderately active and burns 350 calories on the treadmill each day. How many calories should she consume if she is trying to lose weight? (concept)
130 X 10 = 1300C (RMR) • 1300C RMR + (1300C X .50) = 1950C/DAY (for daily living) • 1950C + 350 (purposeful exercise = 2300C/DAY • 2300C X .20 = 460C (calories you should lose 460C) • 2300C - 460C = 1840C/DAY (how much you should lose)
Lunch (study blue) The ___ most important meal of the day Hunger occurs every ___ hours or less (True or False: Hunger occurs every 4 hours for most active people). Eat according to ____ not ___
2nd most important meal of the day (breakfast most important) • Hunger occurs every 4 hours or less • Eat 2 lunches if you get hungry early, had a small breakfast, etc. • Eat according to hunger not time - (Breakfast, lunch 1, lunch 2, dinner) (25% of C each) • Pack lunch = ~500 C

All are good ideas.
10. Eating out at restaurants can pose a challenge. However, it is possible to get a healthy meal if you read the menu carefully and consider the following: Broth based soups are great, but you should avoid creamy chowders All of these. Tomato juice, fruit juice, or shrimp cocktail are great starters.
All of these
What should a person who's unhappy with their appeance do?
All of these
Sugar and glucose (just read) Is glucose digested at different rates and is it a type of sugar

Antioxidants: Nutrients ability to deactivate harmful chemicals (free radicals) • Free radicals are harmful; can harm vital cell structures (unstable) - Formed daily through normal body processes - Can be generated by pollutants
What is BMI good for? What is BMI bad for?
BMI should be used to determine if you're too thin, athletes normal BMI is 18.5 to 24.9 Bad way to determine fatness in people/athletes because accounts for body mass, not body fat — (Football players who had lots of muscle mass were ranked obese, but they weren't ( a lot muscle not fat))
Eating at the right time (before strength training, immediately after post workout....
Before strength training: carb-protein snack — (I.e. yogurt, cereal, and milk) Post strength training: eat protein to repair/heal/build muscle + carbs to refuel depleted glycogen (Don't eat too much protein at 1 time because average human can only take in about 30g of protein at a time, skip) Eat throughout the day: eat every 4 hours for steady supply of glucose (fuel) and amino acids (growth)
Is BMI or body fat more accurate for determining if someone is overweight Body fat measurements Underwater (Hydrostatic) weighing: Bod Pod: Skinfold Calipers: Bioelectrical Impedance:
Body fat: Underwater (Hydrostatic) weighing: most accurate (and expensive) method of measuring body density Bod Pod: Measure body volume from air displacement Skinfold Calipers: convenient (cheap) method measuring thickness of (certain) fat layers Bioelectrical Impedance: Measures body composition, but the amount of water in your body may affect accuracy — Somewhat cheap
Where is Glycogen Stored? (Different form glucose ) What happens if the stores are too low? ◦ What is a limiting factor for endurance athletes? What biochemical changes can occur from training?

Get fatigued and yearn to quit What biochemical changes can occur from training? Well-trained muscles store 20-50% more glycogen than untrained muscles 2. Well trained muscles can store 20-50% more glycogen than can untrained muscles. True False
Chapter 3: Eating to Stay Healthy for the long Run Breakfast and chapter 4: Lunch and Dinner — Understand the importance of consuming a nutritious breakfast. (CLO 1), (Assignment #4, Journal) • Discuss the importance of fueling during the day and eating less in the evening. (CLO 4), (D #4) Chapters 4 and 5 Between Meals Snacking and Lunch, Dinner and Snacks Calories: • Discuss how to eat balanced meals despite busy schedules. (CLO 4) (D #5) Review of Carbs (Important)
Carbs • Foundation of your diet • Carbs breaks down into glucose • 4 calories/gram of carbohydrates • Help fuel and refuel muscles (for excersie) • Whole grains are best • Use a variety of colors • Increase activity = increase # of servings At least 600 calories per day
Athletes should avoid low and/or no carb diets because
Carbs for energy
Storing Carbs. Are they fattening? Is the conversation limited? Body prefers to store fat and ________
Carbs not fattening, excess calories are, particularly excess calories from fat along with carbs. Carbs 16C/tsp v. 36C/tsp of fat — Conversion limited (burn during exercise) ◦ Body prefers to store fat and burn carbs because metabolic cost of converting excess carbs to fat is 23% of ingested C vs. 3% for fat ◦ Means if glycogen stores (carbs) are full = excess calories stored as body fat
Chapter 5: Snacking for Health and Sustained Energy Snacks • Discuss the challenges of socializing and eating healthy when dinning out. Snacks commonly take up ____ total C View snacks as ____ lunch Prevent _____ sensations and cravings?
Commonly take up 20-50% total C (most people undereat meals and overeat snacks) • Views as snacks as 2nd Lunch (so don't eat unhealthy) — Prevent hunger sensations and cravings (Get hungry every 4 hours)
2) How can you lose body fat? Myths about losing body fat: 1 If I start exercise program will I automatically loose fat?
Create a calorie deficit: By bedtime need to burn off more calories than consumed that day. Helps to prevent weight gain, maintain weight loss, and improve health, but not with losing weight —Just because you exercise doesn't mean you will not gain weight because eating more calories than losing.
• Type 2 - what is it? Who typically gets it?
Diabetes 2: Insulin dependent diabetes = body can't produce enough insulin to carry blood sugar into cells. People who are overweight and unfit • Overweight individuals who increase their activity and decrease their weight can reduce the risk of developing diabetes by 58% (prevention is key) • Increased risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, blindness, amputation due to high levels of blood glucose
Winning eating plan (only study blue) Match terms You should aim to eat about 35 different foods in a week You should enjoy healthy foods, but not deprive yourself of foods you enjoy, eat 85-90% quality foods and allow yourself to have 10% of your diet consist of food that may have More nutritional value Not all foods should be eaten equally. There are different recommendations for the amount and types of carbs, protein, and fats you consume.
Eat at least 3 kinds of meals/food groups (preferably 4 or 5): — 35 types of food per week — Allows you to (avoid repetition) and consume > vitamins, minerals and nutrients. — Choose food in their Natural state; (eat clean) — More nutritional value —Minimally processed; — (Think) Moderation — 85-95% nutrient dense foods; 10-15% less nutritional (healthy) Your diet should like a circle and not a line: (Not all foods should be eaten equally. There are different recommendations for the amount and types of carbs, protein, and fats you consume)
Increasing weight (what 2 things should you eat)
Eat larger meals + snacks ( 3-4 large meals + 1 or 2 snacks per day) Don't eat proteins with bad fats (like ice cream/cookies/grease on hamburgers) leaves muscles underfueled Instead, eat healthy fatty foods (like nuts, olive oil, fish)
Losing Weight By choosing.... (Study bold and underlined)
Eat the right amounts of foods (i.e. don't just have coffee or a Red Bull for breakfast) Watch portions and eat mindfully Eating mindfully: chew food slowly, enjoy each mouthful/don't need to eat as much(smaller portion) to be satisfied. Eat wholesome foods ("eat closer to the earth") Less processed/refined foods more fruits, veggies, unrefined/whole grains, and fiber-rich foods Wholesome foods are more filling and healthier By choosing wholesome food, lean meats/ low fat dairy (protein) you will also decrease your risk of cancer, heart disease, hypertension
What is a solution to 'snack attacks'?
Eating before feeling hungry can help prevent cravings.
Eggs and Heart Health: What effect does egg cholesterol have on people's blood cholesterol level? Why is this so? 5.You should watch the amount of eggs you consume because in studies egg cholesterol has been shown to have a large effect on people's blood cholesterol level.

False. Can you have too much? ≥1000mg caffeine/day is linked to heart disease • What has more caffeine coffee or espresso? Express 2x as strong as coffee ounce by once, espresso is smaller, so coffee has more than caffeine. • Expresso 35-65mg ; Coffee135mg • Who should lower their consumption? Why? Pregnant women can cause premature birth and women breast feeding (caffeine) can make babies agitated poor sleeps
Types of Snack attacks Fast Snack, chocolate, premenstrual, and pre-dinner
Fast Snack: Include wholesome items from 3 food group to create a balanced diet. Chocolate: you may end up skipping breakfast due to eating too many Calories the night before. Premenstrual: may be due to hormonal changes and an increase in esterogen levels (can lead to carb cravings) Pre-dinner: Can cause you to eat unhealthy options when you get home, which can increase your Caloric intake for the day.
What are fast snacks? 2 main characteristics?
Fast snacks are consumed on the go instead of having a proper meal. Wholesome foods 3 food groups
What does cholesterol increase the risk of?

Men: waist Women: hips, thighs, and breasts.
simple and complex carbohydrates (only study blue and read rest)
Monosaccharides (a single sugar molecule) and disaccharides (double sugar molecules) Ex: of monosaccharides = table sugar — Common Disaccharides: Glucose, fructose, and galactose (a combination of lactose and glucose). — Examples of disaccharides are milk sugar, honey, and high-fructose corn syrups (all are galactose different combinations of glucose and fructose). — (Simple carbs are less healthy because they don't supply the body with needed nutrients and minerals unless fortified (added back into the food)._ Complex: (when many sugar molecules called complex chains link together) Complex carbs = ◦ Starch (plant form) and glycogen (muscles) —Plants store extra sugar in the form of starch. Fiber: (plant cells and walls) (part plant cells that humans can't digest/enhances carbs) ◦ Soluble: forms gel in water (oats, barley, legumes, some fruits/veggies) ◦ Insoluble: gives plants their structure/absorbs wate(whole grains, nuts, seeds, some veggies) ◦ Starches/complex carbs: Stored as muscle glycogen and liver glycogen (generally not as body fat) → available for energy during exercise. — So, complex carbs such as fruit and vegetables are healthier than simple carbs.
A skinny kid who wants to gain weight. Your 14 year old son asks if you would buy him some creatine since he heard it will help him bulk-up. Is this a good idea?

Nature knows the best weight for you (when you're most healthy), but guidelines estimated of healthy range (+ or - 10% if you have larger or small bone). How much should a men or women weigh (5ft tall + what?) What should a 5'5" woman weigh? A 6'1" man?
• Women: 100 pounds for the first 5 feet of height + 5 pounds per inch thereafter (45 kg for the first 152 cm (5ft), 0.9 kg/cm thereafter) • Men: 106 pounds for the first 5 feet of height + 6 pounds per inch thereafter (48 kg for the first 152 cm (5ft), 1 kg cm thereafter) What should a 5'5" woman weigh? A 6'1" man? Women in pounds: 100+ 5 Ib x 5 (in) = 125 pounds In kg = 45 kg + 0.9 kg x 5 = 49.5 kg Men in pounds: 106 + 6 Ib x 13 in = 184 pounds — For bones + or - calculation multiply answer by 10% + answer
