  • Diet and Food
    • Nutrition
      • carbohydrates
        • energy source
        • rice potato bread pasta
        • 250g needed per day
      • Proteins
        • growth and repair
        • meat cheese milk lentils bean
        • 60g neeeded per day
      • Fats
        • Energy store, cell membranes, waterproofing, absorption of fat and soluble vitamins.
        • Meat, Dairy, Oils
        • 80g needed per day
      • Minerals
        • Chemical reactions
        • Vegetables
        • 9.2g needed per day
      • Vitamins
        • chemical reactions
        • meat fruit veg
        • traces needed per day
      • Water
        • transport, medium for chemical reactions
        • fruit veg and water
        • variable amount needed per day
      • Fibre
        • Aids peristalsis
        • Fruit and veg
        • 12g needed per day
    • key terms
      • balanced diet
        • contains all nutrients required for health in appropriate proportions
      • Obesity
        • A person is 20% or more heavier than the recommended weight for their height
        • linked to cancer, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, gallstones, arthritis, hypertension
      • Malnutririon
        • too much or too little of the balanced diet components
      • Body Mass index
        • Mass in Kg/(height in m)^2. Over 30=obese
    • Coronary Heart Disease
      • Cause
        • Deposition of fat in the artery walls by atherosclerosis. Causes reduced blood flow and oxygen starvation.
        • Salt decreases water potential in the blood which means more water is held in the blood and the blood pressure increases meaning there is damage to the lining of arteries
        • fats:used to make glycoproteins
        • Cholesterol  is needed for cell membranes. Transported by lipoproteins
          • Lipoproteins
            • High density
              • unsaturated fats, cholesterol, protein. Carry cholesterol from tissues to liver and may remove fatty deposits of atherosclerosis.

                        • Saturated fats, cholesterol and proteins. Carry cholesterol from liver to tissues, can cause deposition in artery walls along the way
