Proteins/ Vitamins/ Minerals (Protein denaturation (complex to simple)…
Proteins/ Vitamins/ Minerals
Amino acids
1st primary
Vitamins
Two main categories
Fat soluble
Water soluble
Are organic compounds
contain carbon
Protein denaturation (complex to simple)
Hydrochloric
Mixing + movement in intestine
Chewing
Heat
Fire
Mixing + cutting pounding
marinades (Acid + alcohol)
Denaturing of proteins
which is the disturbance of 3d structure
Occurs in the body and in cooking
Caused by - Heat, Ph change, Alcohol, metals, physical or mechanic manipulation
Disrupt/ change the proteins stability
We can only absorb amino acids! not full proteins!
Fat soluble
A,D,E,K
Not easily excreated
Found in oils, meats, dairy, eggs, nuts, fish
Pros/ Cons
they are stored in the fat cells
We don't need to consume daily
Can intake to much creating toxic amounts (Supplements)
Water soluble
C,B's
Found in fruits, veggies, grains, seeds, lean meats
Easily Excreted
Pros/ Cons
not posible to reach toxicity
They aren't stored
Needed daily
Micronutrients
Vitamins
Fat soluble
Water soluble
Minerals
Major
Trace
Minerals
Major
Needed in the diet
100mg/ day (0lg)
Include: calcium, phosphors, potassium, sulfur, chloride, magnesium, sodium
Trace
Needed in the diet less than 100mg/day (less than 0lg)
Include: iron, iodine, zinc, florine
Also in very small amounts
Boron, copper, magnesium, chromium, selenium
Two main categories
Major
Trace
Simplest chemical structure of any nutrient
Since they are pure elements
Make up ~5g of adult's mass. ~3% body mass
