- bob is an african american male in his 70s - lance is overweight and has a knee injury that prevents him from doing any exercise Inactivity, excessive alcohol intake, overweight, and being of African-American descent all increase hypertension risk. Hypertension risk is decreased by regular exercise, loss of excess body weight, following a DASH diet, consuming less than 2,300 mg of sodium per day, and participating in daily exercise

Jerome enjoys listening to his nutrition professor's experiences with successes and failures in advising people on diet change. The instructor says that when people focus on doing something positive in their diet, they automatically start to do less of the negative—like substituting one behavior with another. While at the pharmacy the other day, Jerome stopped at the station to check his blood pressure. He did not like the results. He went to the student health center for a recheck, as advised by the American Heart Association. He was diagnosed as prehypertensive, with a blood pressure of 129/85. Jerome was sad but not shocked. He is African-American and has a family history of hypertension. He exercises four times per week, controls stress through playing piano, is close to his family, enjoys friends, and does not drink or smoke. Jerome lives in an apartment with three friends. His mom taught him to cook, which he does three nights per week. Jerome does not skip meals (eats breakfast) and packs a lunch to eat on campus. However, too often dinner is late and he grabs packaged snack foods to ward off hunger until he can fix dinner. Jerome talks with his nutrition professor about his dilemma. She wants him to stay positive and asks him to focus on potassium. She tells him that if he focuses on including high-potassium foods, he will receive some added benefits. Answer the following questions about Jerome's situation. What are some potassium-rich foods that Jerome could have readily available at home to help him ward off hunger until he is ready to eat his dinner?

- vegetarian chili made with kidney beans and tomatoes - baked potato - orange juice - spinach salad with strawberries and blueberries A diet with plenty of plant-based foods, especially whole, unprocessed fruits and vegetables, is likely to be rich in potassium.

Since the World Health Organization recently categorized processed meat as carcinogenic and red meat as a probable carcinogen, you have been limiting your meat consumption to no more than once or twice a month. At the same time, you are preparing for a hiking trip at high altitude and have heard that altitude sickness is a possibility if you have iron-deficiency anemia. What would you choose to ensure adequate iron status? Which of the following food choices provides the most iron? 1 cup of fortified breakfast cereal (e.g., Wheaties™) 1/2 cup of kidney beans 1 cup of enriched pasta 1 cup of raw spinach

1 cup of fortified breakfast cereal (e.g., Wheaties™) Many breakfast cereals are fortified with a wide array of vitamins and minerals. One serving of Wheaties™ provides 100% of the Daily Value for iron. Beans, spinach, and enriched pasta do contain some nonheme iron, but fortified breakfast cereals are a very concentrated source of iron. Consuming nonheme iron with a source of vitamin C will enhance its absorption.

To reduce risk for chronic diseases, the Physical Activity Guidelines recommend that most adults should perform at least 10 to 15 minutes of physical activity per day. 60 to 90 minutes of physical activity per day. 150 to 300 minutes of physical activity per day. 150 to 300 minutes of physical activity per week. 300 to 500 minutes of physical activity per week.

150 to 300 minutes of physical activity per week. To decrease risk for chronic diseases, the Physical Activity Guidelines recommend all adults should engage in at least 150 to 300 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per week.

Since being accepted into the business program, your courses are getting tougher and you are staying up late doing homework. You also need work experience, so you are putting in 20 hours a week at the bookstore. Between classes, homework, work, and socializing, you are only getting about 4 to 5 hours of sleep a night and barely have time to eat. You are feeling exhausted and looking for a good, quick energy source. Refer to the Supplement Facts panels to answer the following questions. The supplement facts label from the Nature Made B-Complex with Vitamin C dietary supplement indicates that one caplet contains thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and vitamin B-6 in concentrations 2.5 to 10 times the Daily Value. The information provided for this Nature Made supplement states that "Vitamin B helps to convert food into energy." Do the amounts of any of the B vitamins in the Nature Made® supplement exceed the Upper Level (UL)? 50 mg of niacin 10.2 mg of riboflavin 15 mg of thiamin 5 mg of vitamin B-6 None of these amounts exceeds the UL.

50 mg of niacin The amounts of the B vitamins listed do exceed the Recommended Dietary Allowances for these nutrients, but only niacin exceeds the Upper Level. There is no UL set for thiamin, riboflavin, or pantothenic acid; thus any negative effects of taking high doses of these vitamins is unknown. The UL for niacin is set at 35 milligrams per day to avoid side effects such as skin flushing and damage to the GI tract or liver. However, the UL pertains to the nicotinic acid form of niacin only; the form of niacin in this supplement is niacinamide, which does not have the same pharmacologic effects as the nicotinic acid form. In addition, adverse effects are typically only seen at intakes in excess of 100 milligrams per day. It is recommended that no more than 100% of the daily value for vitamins and minerals be taken in a dietary supplement.

What is the recommendation for a pre-event meal? A high fiber, low-calorie meal A carbohydrate-rich, high quality protein meal A high-protein meal 20-60 minutes before the game A low-protein meal with lots of raw vegetables

A carbohydrate-rich, high quality protein meal

Osteoporosis is a debilitating disease that impacts quality and length of life. A person with osteoporosis has much less BLANK bone than someone without osteoporosis. This makes the bone fragile and more susceptible to fracture. However, a diet high in BLANK and BLANK and a lifestyle with regular BLANK exercise can reduce the rate at which bone density declines. Women tend to lose 1% to 3% of their bone mass each year after BLANK. Men also gradually lose bone mass as they age. Attaining optimal peak bone mass before reaching adulthood is crucial because some bone loss is an inevitable part of aging. Even moderate bone loss can lead to BLANK, a disease defined by low bone mineral density that is a precursor to osteoporosis.

A person with osteoporosis has much less trabecular bone than someone without osteoporosis. This makes the bone fragile and more susceptible to fracture. However, a diet high in calcium and vitamin D and a lifestyle with regular weight-bearing exercise can reduce the rate at which bone density declines. Women tend to lose 1% to 3% of their bone mass each year after menopause. Men also gradually lose bone mass as they age. Attaining optimal peak bone mass before reaching adulthood is crucial because some bone loss is an inevitable part of aging. Even moderate bone loss can lead to osteopenia, a disease defined by low bone mineral density that is a precursor to osteoporosis.

Which of the following is one of the criteria that must be met in order to classify a compound as a vitamin? The body cannot make the substance. The body synthesizes enough of the compound to maintain health. Absence of the compound from the diet for a defined period produces deficiency symptoms that, if caught in time, are quickly cured when the substance is resupplied. A synthetic version of a compound is provided in amounts of one gram or more per day in supplemental form.

Absence of the compound from the diet for a defined period produces deficiency symptoms that, if caught in time, are quickly cured when the substance is resupplied. To be classified as a vitamin, a compound must meet the following criteria to be an essential nutrient: (1) the body is unable to synthesize enough of the compound to maintain health, and (2) absence of the compound from the diet for a defined period produces deficiency symptoms that, if caught in time, are quickly cured when the substance is resupplied. A substance does not qualify as a vitamin merely because the body cannot make it. Evidence must suggest that health declines when the substance is not consumed.

When designing a fitness program, include a variety of activities to improve all dimensions of fitness and keep your workouts interesting. Click and drag each of the following activities to indicate whether it mainly enhances aerobic fitness, muscular fitness, or flexibility. - hamstring stretch - step aerobics - biceps curl - side bends - cross-country skiing - kettlebell workout

Aerobic Fitness - cross-country skiing - step aerobics Muscular Fitness - kettlebell workout - biceps curl Flexibility - hamstring stretch - side bends Cross-country skiing and step aerobics are examples of exercises that improve aerobic fitness. Kettlebell workouts and biceps curls are exercises that build muscular fitness. Hamstring stretches and side bends are examples of exercises to improve flexibility.

Describe the relationship of Beta-carotene and Vitamin A and list the key functions

Beta-carotene is an antioxidant. It is also a precursor for vitamin A which functions in vision (night blindness, cornea), mucus membranes, epithelial tissues, and immunity

Three functions of calcium

Blood clotting Muscle contraction Nerve impulse transmission Calcium is important for much more than bone mineralization. It is also involved in the processes of blood clotting, muscle contraction, and nerve impulse transmission.

If Matt continues to eat this way for months, which might he experience? Beriberi Bruise easily Nerve damage Pellagra

Bruise easily His diet lacks vitamin C. A function of vitamin C is collagen production. With decreased collagen bleeding and bruising is more likely.

Indicate which of the following foods are high in vitamin A value per cup. Mark all that apply. Cantaloupe Cauliflower Cucumber Green pepper Iceberg lettuce Peas Pumpkin Radishes Spinach Zucchini squash

Cantaloupe Pumpkin Spinach Vitamin A is high in yellow-orange fruits and vegetables and dark, leafy greens.

While Matt is running a 100-meter dash, what fuel is his body primarily using? Carbohydrate Fat Protein

Carbohydrate When muscles use energy at a very high rate, like during a 100-meter dash or sprint, they rely more on anaerobic parts of metabolism. Glucose is the primary fuel that can be broken down to support anaerobic metabolism. Fats require oxygen (aerobic metabolism) to be broken down and therefore they are not used during high-rate energy demand exercises. Protein contribution to muscle fuel is relatively small. Protein is reserved for building and repairing tissues and synthesizing enzymes, hormones, and transporters.

List the criteria for pre-event meals for athletes.

Carbohydrate rich, moderate in fat or fiber, include high-quality protein.

Which of the following would be the best way for a college student to increase his or her intake of provitamin A carotenoids? Choose a baked sweet potato instead of a baked russet potato. Choose whole milk instead of skim milk. Choose plant oils instead of animal fats in food preparation. Consume a whole, fresh orange instead of orange juice.

Choose a baked sweet potato instead of a baked russet potato. Plants with yellow, orange, and red pigments tend to be rich dietary sources of provitamin A carotenoids, which are plant chemicals that can be converted to vitamin A in the body. One large baked sweet potato provides about two times the RDA for vitamin A. Although oranges do have an orange color, citrus fruits are not particularly rich sources of provitamin A carotenoids. All commercially available milk is fortified with similar levels of vitamin A, regardless of fat content. Plant oils are excellent sources of vitamin E, but not vitamin A.

Most North American adults exceed current recommendations for sodium intake. Which of the following represents the best way to limit sodium intake? Choose home-cooked meals prepared with fresh ingredients rather than restaurant and processed foods. Decrease intake of dairy products. Use sea salt instead of iodized salt at the table and in cooking. Avoid adding salt to foods while cooking and at the table.

Choose home-cooked meals prepared with fresh ingredients rather than restaurant and processed foods. Although dairy products are naturally high in sodium, the amount of sodium per serving (about 120 milligrams of sodium per cup of milk) is low compared to that of processed foods. The sodium content of sea salt, kosher salt, and similar gourmet products is equivalent to that of common, iodized table salt. Furthermore, iodide, an essential nutrient, is lacking from such products. Only about 10% of our sodium intake comes from salt added during or after cooking foods at home. Comparatively, about 80% of our sodium intake comes from salt added during food manufacturing and food preparation at restaurants. Choosing home-prepared meals instead of commercially prepared foods would have the greatest impact on total sodium intake.

Which is a consequence of a very high intake of calcium? Constipation Muscle cramps Loss of appetite Vomiting

Constipation

Which statement is accurate about optimizing muscle protein synthesis? Consume 45% of daily calories from fat. Take an amino acid supplement at least 5 times per week. Consume a sport drink containing 6-8% of carbohydrate before weight training. Consume 20-30 grams of protein per meal spaced throughout the day.

Consume 20-30 grams of protein per meal spaced throughout the day.

What could Laurie do to reduce her risk of cancer?

Consume a high plant-based diet, including fruits and vegetables Consume a low saturated fat, high fiber diet Continue maintaining a healthy weight

Of the following options, which would be the best way for a college student to increase his or her intake of folate? Consume a spinach salad topped with strawberries and slivered almonds for lunch. Choose an animal source of protein rather than a plant source of protein at dinner. Choose skim milk instead of calcium-fortified orange juice as a beverage at breakfast. To prepare a sandwich, choose whole grain bread instead of bread made from enriched wheat flour.

Consume a spinach salad topped with strawberries and slivered almonds for lunch. The best sources of folate/folic acid are leafy green vegetables (e.g., spinach), fruits (e.g., orange juice, strawberries), plant sources of protein (e.g., dried beans, nuts), products made from enriched wheat flour (because folic acid is part of the enrichment program), and fortified breakfast cereals. Except for liver, animal sources of protein are not particularly good sources of folate. Dairy products are also quite low in folate.

Several phytochemicals, such as lycopene and resveratrol, may help the body ward off cancer. What is the best way to incorporate phytochemicals into your diet? Take a multivitamin and mineral supplement with added phytochemicals. Consume a variety of brightly colored fruits and vegetables. Take a supplement made of natural plant extracts. Consume fortified foods and beverages.

Consume a variety of brightly colored fruits and vegetables. Phytochemical supplements and fortified foods contain isolated plant compounds with purported health benefits. Dietary supplements are not tightly regulated in the United States, so the quality and composition of any dietary supplement are questionable. In addition, there are components of whole foods that likely contribute to cancer prevention beyond the effects of an isolated phytochemical.

Laurie's daughter, 18-year-old Ashley (5'7", 140 pounds) is a senior in high school and lives at home. She is a vegan. For breakfast, she eats oatmeal, applesauce, and soymilk. Lunch is a pasta with tomato sauce and spinach salad. She snacks on carrots and trail mix throughout the day. For dinner, she eats stir-fry vegetables with rice. Ashley recently noticed her skin has turned a bright yellowish-orange color. What is most likely responsible for this condition? Consuming a diet high in vitamin D Consuming a diet high in folic acid Consuming a diet high in beta-carotene Consuming a diet high in vitamin C

Consuming a diet high in beta-carotene

Laurie (51 years old, post-menopausal, height 5'5", weight 138 pounds) works full time as a teacher. Each day she eats a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast, and takes a lunchmeat sandwich and diet soda to work for lunch. When she gets home from work she fixes dinner for the family, which generally consist of meat, enriched breads or pastas, and dessert. Laurie uses many convenience foods such as helper mixes and canned soups, plus condiments to enhance the flavor of the grains. The family drinks bottled water or soda with their meals. They eat little produce, because they believe that America's soils are depleted, resulting in foods that aren't very nutritious. They keep cookies, candy, chips, crackers and similar foods on hand for convenient snacking. What, if any, foods in Laurie's diet provide sodium? Indicate whether her intake is probably too high, probably adequate, or probably too low.

Convenience foods/canned soup, condiments, snack foods provide sodium. Intake is probably too high. Contrary to popular belief, soda pop is not high in sodium. A 12 oz. drink has about 35-50 mg per 12 oz drink, compared to ~170 mg in 1 Tbsp. of ketchup, 800-1000 mg in many frozen entree meals, ~1000 mg in 1 Tbsp. of soy sauce or up to ~4500 mg in some "helper" mixes.

Insufficient intake of vitamins and minerals can result in a variety of deficiency diseases. Niacin micronutrient with its deficiency symptoms.

Initial symptoms include poor appetite, weakness, and weight loss; advanced symptoms include dementia, diarrhea, and dermatitis pellagra is a niacin-deficiency disease

Insufficient fluoride

Insufficient fluoride leads to dental caries.

Iron-deficiency

Iron-deficiency anemia is characterized by weakness, fatigue, and impaired mental function.

In the dietary supplements aisle of the grocery store, the choices are endless—and expensive. Julie, a college sophomore, just read the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' Position Paper on nutrient supplementation for her class. She learned that dietary supplements, such as a basic multivitamin and mineral supplement, can be a good backup plan to ensure adequate nutrition, but the jury is still out when it comes to demonstrating a long-term benefit of dietary supplements. About one-third of U.S. adults regularly take nutrient supplements, but interestingly, it is usually the people who already consume a healthy diet who take them. Getting more than the recommended amount of a nutrient does not confer additional health benefits. In fact, too much of some vitamins and minerals can lead to ill health and toxicities. Julie decides she would rather focus on getting her nutrients from foods. How can she get the most vitamins and minerals out of the foods she eats? When storing fruits and vegetables in her apartment, what steps can Julie take to minimize nutrient losses? Click to select the correct responses.

Delay washing and peeling fresh produce until just before eating Freeze fresh produce if it will not be eaten within a few days Store fresh produce in closed containers in the refrigerator

Excessive iodine

Hydration is an important concern during physical activity. Complete each sentence with the appropriate hydration term. For most athletes who are exercising for less than an hour or not losing significant amounts of weight during exercise, the best beverage for replacing fluid losses is BLANK. A sports drink may be beneficial when exercise surpasses BLANK minutes or if weight loss is greater than BLANK to BLANK pounds during a workout. While special consideration should be paid to ensuring adequate hydration during exercise, it is also possible to consume too much water, which leads to the dangerous condition known as BLANK.

For most athletes who are exercising for less than an hour or not losing significant amounts of weight during exercise, the best beverage for replacing fluid losses is water. A sports drink may be beneficial when exercise surpasses sixty minutes or if weight loss is greater than five to six pounds during a workout. While special consideration should be paid to ensuring adequate hydration during exercise, it is also possible to consume too much water, which leads to the dangerous condition known as hyponatremia. For sports that require less than 60 minutes of exertion or when total weight loss is less than 5 to 6 pounds, the primary concern is replacing the water lost in sweat, because losses of carbohydrate stores and electrolytes (sodium, chloride, potassium, and other minerals) are not usually very great. Although electrolytes are lost in sweat, the quantities lost in exercise of brief to moderate duration can be easily replaced later by consuming normal foods, such as orange juice, potatoes, and tomato juice. Keep in mind that sweat is about 99% water and only 1% electrolytes and other substances. It is also possible for some athletes to drink too much water and thereby develop water intoxication (hyponatremia).

How does vitamin A support the immune system? It maintains the health of epithelial tissue, which forms a barrier against infection. It improves vision, so you can see bacteria and viruses. It promotes the formation of free radicals. It increases acid production in the stomach.

It maintains the health of epithelial tissue, which forms a barrier against infection. Vitamin A is involved in vision, but no matter how good your vision is, you will still need a microscope to see microbes! Vitamin A maintains the integrity of the epithelial tissue, which makes up the skin and the mucous membranes that line the GI tract, lungs, and urinary tract. Healthy epithelial cells form a barrier against invading germs.

Which use of protein for exercise is accurately described? It contributes a major part of fuel in strength training. It spares carbohydrate from being used for fuel. It repairs muscle tissue after exercise. It is converted to glycogen for storage in muscles.

She does not consume any good food sources of calcium. There may be small amounts in various foods, but not much. Intake is probably too low.

Which cooking method is best for preserving vitamin content of fresh vegetables? Steaming or stir-frying Baking or grilling Deep-frying Boiling

Steaming or stir-frying Steaming, microwaving, and stir-frying are the best cooking methods for preserving vitamin content of foods. During food preparation, some vitamins may be destroyed by heat or leached into cooking water or fat, thus reducing nutrient availability. Boiling vegetables, for example, results in losses of B vitamins, especially folate. Higher temperatures and longer cooking times increase vitamin losses. Using quick cooking methods, such as microwaving, and avoiding overcooking vegetables can help to retain nutrients. Using a lid on the cooking pot can reduce cooking time, helping to preserve vitamin content. When vegetables are steamed, fewer water-soluble vitamins are lost in cooking water. Fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin A and carotenoids, can be lost in fat used for cooking, so use minimal fat during cooking or add any fats for flavoring after the food is cooked.

Laurie's son, 20-year-old Matt (5'10", 160 pounds) is away at college. He wants to be more muscular, so he lifts weights, has a protein shake 2 times a day, and eats many protein bars for snacks during the day. His meals consist of meat, bread, rice and peanut butter. He recently started using the college's indoor track to run the same routines he practiced in high school when he was on the track and field team, including the 100, 200- and 400-meter races. His routine allows for about 30 minutes of actual activity each day, and Matt is trying to decide which beverage will help him most. His roommate, talks about eating a lot of carbs as a way to improve performance on the field. His roommate also tells him to eat a substantial, high-protein meal of steak and ribs before running. How adequate is Matt's diet in vitamins A & C? Too low in vitamin A only Too low in vitamin C only Too low in both vitamins A and C Adequate in vitamins A and C

As the intensity of exercise increases from low to high intensity, the proportion of ______ used to fuel activity increases. carbohydrates ketones fatty acids protein

carbohydrates Anaerobic breakdown of glucose (also called glycolysis) is used to supply energy during short, intense exercises. This allows for quick generation of ATP, but it cannot be sustained for a long time. As the intensity of exercise decreases and the supply of oxygen can be sustained, aerobic glucose metabolism and use of fat for fuel increases. These processes are slower, but generate more energy. Protein is a minor source of energy during exercise, typically supplying only 5% of the body's energy needs. Ketones are generated when glucose is synthesized from fatty acid precursors during a fasted state, but this is a slow process that does not supply a significant amount of energy during exercise.
