π« Topic:
β²Energy and BMR:
π½ Introduction:
Ask students about the need for energy to function, oxidation of food, production of energy through glycolysis and Krebs cycle etc.
Kilo calories:
A calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1 degree centigrade.
It is a thousand times the smallest caloric used in physics.
Mega joules (MJ):-
One kilo calorie is equal to 4.186 kilo joules. So 1000 kilocalories equals 4.186 x 10Β³ kilojoules or 4.186 megajoules.
To learn the energy value of various foods:
Energy value of food:
The average total energy value of pure carbohydrate, fat and protein as determined by bomb calorimeter is as follows.
1 gram of carbohydrate yields 4.1 kcal of energy.
1 gram of fat yields 9.45 kcal of energy.
1 gram of protein yields 5.65 kcal of energy.
The energy metabolism of a subject at complete physical and mental rest and normal body temperature and in the post-absorptive state (i.e. 12 hours after taking the last meal) is known as basal metabolism.
To learn about determination of BASAL METABOLISM of an individual:
Basal metabolism is usually determined using the apparatus of Benedict and Roth.
The apparatus is a closed circuit system in which oxygen is breathed in from a metal cylinder of about 6 liter capacity and the CO2 thus produced is absorbed by the soda-lime present in the tower.
The oxygen cylinder floats on the water present in the external tank.
Wears a nose clip and breathes the oxygen present in the cylinder through the mouth for 6 minutes.
The volume of O2 used is recorded on graph paper attached to a rotating drum by means of a pen attached to it.
Since the subject is in a post-absorptive state, the RQ is assumed to be 0.82 and the caloric value of one liter of O2 is taken as 4.8 K calories.
Subject – adult male, 50 g weight
Oxygen consumed in 6 minutes = 1.1 liter
Heat produced in 6 minutes = 4.8 x 1.1 Kcal -5.28 Kcal
Heat produced in 24 hours -5.2x60x24-1267 Kcal
the basal metabolism of the individual for 24 hours = 1,267 Kcal
To learn about factors affecting BMR :
π½ Factors Affecting BMR β Factors affecting BMR are discussed as follows β
Body size β BMR is more closely related to body surface area than a person’s height and weight.
Age: Infants and young children have a higher BMR than adults.
Sex: Women have a slightly lower BMR than men.
Climate: In individuals living in tropical climates, BMR is 10% lower than in those living in the template zone. (The cause is unknown).
Dietary SDA: Diet has a stimulatory effect on BMR. If a person is fed in the postabsorptive phase, BMR increases by 8%. It is known as Specific Dynamic Action (SDA) of food.
Under nutrition and starvation: Prolonged starvation or undernutrition reduces BMR by 10-20%.
Sleep: BMR is 5% lower than basal metabolic state.
Fever: Fever increases BMR. For every one degree Fahrenheit increase in body temperature, BMR increases by 7%.
Physical activity: If a person does physical exercise half an hour before determining BMR, an increase in BMR is observed.
Fear and nervous tension: Fear and nervous tension increase BMR
Thyroid: Hypothyroidism lowers BMR by about 30% and hyperthyroidism increases BMR by about 100% depending on the severity of the condition.
Adrenaline: A 1 mg injection of adrenaline increases BMR by about 20%.
To learn about energy requirements of various types of activities:

β Topic: balanced diet
To introduce balanced diet:
So far we have discussed food, classification of food and nutrients, their nutritional value and body requirement including calories.
Now the question arises how to make a balanced diet.
π½ To define balanced diet:
A balanced diet can be defined as “comprising various food groups such as energy-giving foods, body-building foods and protective foods in appropriate proportions to ensure that an individual obtains the minimum requirements of all nutrients”.
Or
A balanced diet is called βJ
(1) Adequate number of calories
(2) Sufficient amounts of protein, fat and carbohydrate
(3) May be defined as providing adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals to maintain health, vitality and general well-being. .
π½ To enlist factors determining balanced diet:
A person’s balanced diet is influenced and determined by various factors such as:
Age
Sex
Physical activity
Physiological state like pregnancy and lactation.
Likes and dislikes
Culture and customs
Food habits
It is important to clarify that a perfectly satisfactory diet may be a balanced diet for one person, while it may be insufficient and unbalanced for another, or excessive for another.
Because everyone’s nutrient needs are different, a balanced diet is also different for different people.
π½ To enlist the principles of planning a balanced diet:
The following principles should be considered while planning a balanced diet.
A balanced diet should include some of the food items mentioned below.
β€ Staple foods: Wheat, rice, millet, carbohydrate-providing vegetables like potatoes, fruits like bananas.
β€ High protein foods: Beans, pulses, fleshy fruits, dairy products, meat, fish, eggs..
β€ Protective foods: Green leafy and other vegetables and fruits.
β€ Fat and sugar: In every meal, some amount of cooking oil or ghee and sugar, jaggery, honey etc. to provide extra calories.
A balanced diet should contain protein that should be 15 to 20% of the daily energy requirement.
Total calories from fat should not exceed 20 to 30% of daily energy requirements.
The rest of the energy should come from carbohydrates. This should include adequate amounts of fibrous foods.
A balanced diet should contain all vitamins and minerals and adequate water.
All factors e.g. Age, gender, rituals, beliefs, working conditions, likes/dislikes should be considered while planning a balanced diet.
π½ To plan balanced diet as per budget:
A balanced diet according to the budget can be of the following types.
Balanced diet at high cost β Such a diet will include generous amounts of expensive foods like milk, eggs, meat, fish, and fruits, and moderate amounts of grains, legumes, nuts, and fats.
Balanced diet at moderate cost: This diet includes moderate amounts of milk, eggs, meat, fish, fruits, and fats, and generous amounts of grains, legumes, nuts, and green leafy vegetables.
Balanced diet at low cost β This diet includes low amounts of milk, eggs, meat, fish and fat and generous amounts of grains, legumes, nuts and green leafy vegetables.
π½ To learn the steps in planning balanced diet:
Steps to Plan a Balanced Diet:
1) Identify the person and his/her unique characteristics.
Age, sex, activity level, income, socio-economic background, religion, region of residence.
2) Approach the RDA for energy and protein. (This ensures adequacy of other nutrients)
3) Determine the total volume of the following groups.
Energy giving: Cereals
roots and tubers
fats and oils
sugar and jaggery
Body building: Milk and milk products
Meat/Poultry/Eggs
Beans
Protective/regulatory:
Vegetables and fruits.
4) Distribute the determined total amount between meals.
5) Determine the number of meals to eat
6) Plan the menu by determining the items in each group and their amounts for each meal.
7) Check the daily diet for inclusion of each food group and set amount.

π½ DIETARY REQUIREMENTS & DEFICIENCY DISEASES.
The Calorie:-
The term used to describe the energy value of food is called calorie.
definition:-
The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade is called a calorie.
Calories are always measured in joules. The unit d of energy is equal to zero value. . Philk Coolery
Its normal energy
CEO = 4 calories /1 g.m. – 17 kj. (Jul)
Protein=tqcalory / 1 g.m. – 17 kilos. (Jul)
Fat-9 calories /1g.m. -37 k.j. (Jul)
π½ Factors affecting energy requirement
The following factors are used to determine the calorie requirement in humans.
(1) Age
(2) Sex
(3) Working Condition
(4) Body Composition
(5) Physical Activity
π½ Daily Requirement of Energy :-
If the person is not doing any business and his daily activities like sitting, standing, walking, how many calories are consumed by this person. Its estimated Pradomo !or) requirement is determined. A typical working and sedentary person needs the following chattori.
(1) Eight Hours in Bed – 498.7 Calories
(2) Eight Hours Light Work – 748.0 Calories
(3) Eight Hours With Out Work – 1220.0 Calry
In short, if the body weight is 55 kg, then 2400 calories are required.. ! For work and if there is moderate work, 2800 calories are required. A person requires 3900 calories during hard work. If a woman’s weight is 45 kg, she needs 1900 calories. Women need 2200 calories for light work and 3000 calories for moderate work.
Balancediet:
The diet from which all the food components can be obtained in sufficient quantity for maintenance of health in addition to calories in sufficient quantity is called balance diet. Caste, age, habitation, customs and standard of health vary from person to person. Therefore, the amount of food consumed is also different.
Composition of Balanced diet:-
(1)Cereals- 400 gm
(2) Pulses- 55 to 70 gm
(3) Leafy vegetables β 100 grams,
(4) Other vegetables β 5 grams
(5) Roots & tubers- 75 gm
(6) Milk- 200 grams
(7) Fats β 30 grams
(8) Fruits- 30 grams
(9) Sugar – 30 grams
(10) Mutton β 30 grams
d11) Eggs β 30 grams
All these are taken in food according to the standard of living and caste of the person.
π½ Factors affecting selection and planning of meals.
In a poor country like India where there is not enough food, the question arises how to plan. So nutrition education in the community is always necessary. It is not only to give education but also to show it practically.
Factors Affecting Planning :-
(1) Income
(2) Family size
(3)Religion (Business)
(4) Habit
(5) Business
(6) Knowledge
Advantages of planning:-
(1) It helps to choose different types of food.
(2) Sufficient nutrition can be provided to every member of the family.
(3) Manu is prepared and served attractively.
(4) Planning once prepared lasts for many days.
Nutritive Value of “food ltems:-
Which we take. Many of them nutri:on we get theta . It is classified on the basis of its therapeutic value, food and stut.
(1) Cereals & Mallets
Grains are high in our daily diet. Like Dhanu, Rice, Jowar, Lajri, Rice etc. are divided into three parts.
(1) Outer layer
(2) Inner layer
(3) It has an innermost layer.
The outer layer contains protein, fat and minerals. The inner layer is high in starch. Rice looks very attractive when it is polished. But when it loses its polish, it is judged by the taste. Its top layer, which contains fat, protein, and minerals. J
is destroyed. Washing and cooking rice destroys its elements. Frequent washing destroys vitamins – B, starch, vitamin-D. And parboiling rice destroys its nutrients.
Coriander is the most important grain after rice. Whole coriander is ground and used in the form of flour. Which is high in protein.
(2)Pulses (Legumes) :-
Pulses are second only to grains in the Indian diet. In which first class protein is contained in mung bean, matha, chickpea, sosabean etc. Hence it is called poor man’s protein. These include B vitamins and salts. More than 40% protein is found in soybeans. Apart from C, saffron is also high in protein.
(3)Vegetables:-
Green leafy vegetables including fenugreek, fenugreek, spinach bhaji, radish bhaji, etc. It contains vitamins – A, B, and minerals. Every person should eat 100 grams of bhaji every day which prevents constipation. Basically Yeti vcgetables:β’
These types of vegetables include turnip, potato, yam, carrot etc. Carrots are also considered as tubers. 5 grams of calcium, protein, vitamins per day can be obtained from each tuber
Tuber should be taken. All the remaining vegetables like brinjal, tomato, cabbage perire manchi also get vitamins and minerals. Take 80 grams of vegetables daily
(4) Ground Nuts & Oilseeds :-
Vegetables are mostly used in this. From which fat and protein are found in higher quantity. Libya, which is grown in soil, from which fat and protein are available in high quantity.
