what is the difference between fat and obese?

over fat is having more body weight that is normal. obesity is having excess accumulation of fat

essential fat

constitutes about 2-5% of total weight in men and 8-12% of total weight in women; required for normal physiologic functioning and is in the marrow of bones as well as the heart, lungs, liver, spleen, kidneys, intestines.

fiber

a non-digestible complex carb. provides bulk in the large intestines to aid in waste elimination

antioxidants

a substance that slows down the damage that can be caused to other substances by the effects of oxygen; prevents cell damage

most common type of injuries associated with physical activity/sports

acute: single event that causes damage to a part of the musculoskeletal system chronic musculoskeletal injuries: repetitive forces general medical problems

vitamin e

antioxidant to prevent cell damage

body's response to stress

arousal (physiological): heightened awareness that a stressor is present, muscle tension, sweaty feet, signals higher centers in the brain to respond. anxiety (psychologically): feelings of tension, apprehension, nervousness, worry

free radicals

atoms or groups of atoms with an odd (unpaired) number of electrons and can be formed when oxygen interacts with certain molecules

Low Density Lipoprotein

bad cholesterol because it deposits cholesterol on the artery walls that can buildup and result in plaque formation and limit blood flow

Dr. Hans Selye

biologist and endocrinologist, said stress is caused/triggered by stressors that are physical, social, or psychological

vitamin k

blood clotting

cerebral contusions

blow to the head or a fall that shakes the brain inside the skull

exhaustion

body adjustments as a result of a long-term exposure to a stressor. overload: the body systems may not be able to resist the stressor indefinitely.

vitamin c

bone, cartilage muscle, and blood vessel structure, maintain capillaries and gums, aids in absorption of iron

what parts of the body are usually affected by injury?

bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, tissues

connect bones to bones and provide stability to joints

tendons

connection between muscles and bones

recovery

control over the stressful situation is gaines. homeostasis is established. movement toward full recovery is seen. by the end of this stage the body has returned to its pre-stress stage

how to manage stress

exercise regularly, deal with your anger, take time to relax or meditate, eat well, slow down, focus on the positive

nonessential fat

fat that accumulates in excess amounts that result in fatness and obesity

saturated fats

fats that are solid at room temperature, nou double bonds, not healthy for you ex. cheese, whole milk, bacon, hot dogs, palm and coconut oil

benefits of water

muscle contraction nerve conduction, waste elimination, joint lubrication, nutrient transport, metabolism and proper fluid balance. 2.7 quarts for males and 3.7 quarts for females

body's response to chronic injuries

musculoskeletal tissues begin to break down and injury ensues, can be followed by a low grade inflammatory response which can cause pain

exercised induced asthma

narrowing of the airways in the lungs that is triggered by strenuous exercise; causes shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing and other symptoms during or after exercise.

distress

negative/detrimental stressors

Are multivitamins necessary?

no

stress

nonspecific response of the body to any demand made upon it

heat exhaustion

weakness, fatigue, sweating

limit cholesterol to _____ per day

300mg

how many calories are in one pound of fat

3500

calories per gram of carbohydrates

4 calories/gram

4 calories/gram

calories per gram of fat

9 calories/gram

fat soluble vitamins

A - leafy veggies, yellow/orange veggies, milk, butter, cheese D - eggs, dairy, milk, fish liver oil E - seeds, leafy green veggies, margarine K - green leafy veggies, cereals

personality types and stress

A: always "on the go" is competitive, appears tense, impatient and has a sense of time urgency, high achievers. B: more easy going, relaxed patient, and is satisfied with their level of achievement C: love dtails spend lots of time figuring out how things work, not assertive, suppress their own desires, very vulnerable to depression D: negative outlook on life, pessimist, suppresses emotions, fears rejections

water soluble vitamins

C - citrus fruit, berries, veggies(peppers) Vitamin B

nutrient

Compounds in food that the body requires for proper growth, maintenance, and functioning

injury treatment

Rest: 24 - 72 hours or more Ice: apply immediately to reduce swelling and tissue damage 10 - 15 min 2-3 times a day for 2-3 days Compression: when not icing the area, wrap the injured part with elastic band to prevent fluid buildup - but not too tight Elevation: raise injured area above the level of the heart

alarm

first phase of stress response; fight or flight response. sympathetic nervous system releases stress hormones and causes the body to increase heart rate, strengthen skeletal muscle, dilated coronary arteries, pupils, bronchial tubes

how much daily protein is recommended?

for an adult, .8 kg of body weight. 10-15% intake of calories

folate

genetic material development of red blood cell production

High Density Lipoprotein

good cholesterol, produced in the liver and small intestine, protects against heart disease by removing cholesterol from the artery wall and carrying it to the liver where it is converted into bile and excreted through intestine.

vitamin d

growth of bones and calcium absorption

male body fat ranges

healthy: 18-24% obese: 25%+

female body fat ranges

healthy: 25-31% obese: 32%+
