10. Food nutrition and health Macro nutrients Proteins Fats Carbohydrates Carbs are needed for energy. Two types: Sugar (simple) Starch (complex). Sugar: glucose and fructose can be found naturally in fruit and V or added to cakes etc. Starch: Potatoes, bread, pasta etc. Contain nutrients: b vitamins, iron and calcium. Simple carbs are digested quickly (sugars) Complex carbs take longer (starch). Glycaemic index: (helps with diabetes) High GI digested quickly Low GI Digested slowly (healthier) 50% of our energy should come from carbs. Too much carbs: Converted to fat if we don't need the energy. Tooth decay Simple carbs shoot blood sugars up, can cause diabetes. Too few carbs: Blood sugar to drop (tiredness, hunger, dizzy). Provide energy, nutrients and insulation. A layer of fat needed to protect organs and bones. Source of fat soluble vitamins. Saturated fats: BAD for health Animal sources. Can increase cholesterol = heart disease. Unsaturated fats: Healthier. Vegetable sources. Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats can help to lower blood pressure. Fats should make up less than 35% of daily food energy. Too much fat leads to: Weight gain. High blood pressure and stroke. Too little fat leads to: Less fat soluble vitamins A,D,E and K = vitamin deficiency. Weight loss Less insulation = colder quicker, illness. Needed for growth, repair and maintenance. Different biological values (HBV & LBV) Average male 55g per day/ female 45g per day Too much puts pressure on liver and kidneys. Too little = growth is slowed down, wounds don t heal, growth slows on hair and nails Oedema (fluid filled swelling) Alternative proteins = Soya (beans) Micro protein (Quorn style) TVP (vegetable protein) Tofu (beans).

12. Food nutrition and health Micro nutrients Vit A Vit D Good eyesight Growth Healthy immune system. Main source: Liver, butter, oily fish, eggs. Too much can weaken bones Too little: night blindness 0.7mg men, 0.6mg women per day. Helps Vit E Vit K

13. Food nutrition and health Needs of different age groups. BMR Energy needs. PAL Young children (2-5) Children 5-12 Teenagers Adults Elderly adults

14. Food nutrition and health Diet related health problems. Obesity Coronary heart disease Anaemia Diabetes Skeleton Rickets Osteoporosis Tooth decay.

15. Food nutrition and health Different groups Lactose intolerance Nut Allergy Coeliac disease Vegetarians

16. Food Science Why cook food? To make it safe to eat To improve shelf life To develop flavours To improve texture Give variety in the diet.

17. Food Science Heat transfer Conduction Convection Radiation .

18. Food Science Cooking methods Water based Fat based Dry based.

19. Food safety Food spoilage High risk foods Microorganisms love Mould and Yeast Enzymes

20. Food safety Storing food safely Cooking/ Reheating (75 C) The danger zone (5-63 C) Chilling (0-5 C) Freezing (-18 C) Freeze drying Canning Vacuum packing Using chemicals Use by date Best before date

21. Food safety Preparing food safely Cross contamination Preparing Cooking Serving Campylobacter E.Coli 0157 Salmonella Staphyloccus Listeria Controlling bacteria

22. Food safety Micro organisms Moulds Yeasts Bacteria

23. Food choice Influences Physical activity level (PAL) Healthy eating Cost of food Income Culinary skills Lifestyle Seasonality Availability Special occasions Enjoyment
