Not all Carbs are the same
Diabetes and obesity
Obesity
In 2016, 26 per cent of adults were classified as obese. New update due May 2019.
Causes
type 2 diabetes
coronary heart disease
some types of cancer, such as breast cancer and bowel cancer
stroke
Diabetes
4.6 million people living in the UK have diabetes, 6.6% of the population.
12.3 million people, including children, are at a high risk of Type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes is a common condition that causes the level of sugar (glucose) in the blood to become too high.
It's a lifelong condition that can affect your everyday life. You may need to change your diet, take medicines and have regular check-ups.
It's caused by problems with a chemical in the body (hormone) called insulin. It's often linked to being overweight or inactive, or having a family history of type 2 diabetes.
What is a carbohydrate?
Macronutrient that is needed in the body for energy production
3 types of carb
disaccharaide
2 molecules bonded
takes more energy and time to break down
sucrose
lactose
polysaccharaide
takes a lot of energy to break down into a mono to be used
starch
long chain of 9+ monos
glycogen
monosaccharaide
fructose e.g. apples
galactose e.g. honey
glucose. c6h12o6
one molecule of e.g. C6H12O6. fairly easy to break down for quick energy
Carbs or Fats for energy
Once the muscle has taken in enough glucose, they are then converted into lipids (fat) and stored elsewhere.
Fat gives to more energy than carbohydrates at a low pace, when blood lactate is 0.7
When your body is working at moderate intensity, the cross-over faise means that carbs and fats are being used at similar levels
When working at a high intensity, your body is using mostly carbs because they are easier to break down
Stored in: Liver, Muscles, Kidney, Brain
What is energy?
The ability for the body to work
You get energy from food and water
Daily energy intake is different for each individual
Age
Gender
Body compositon
PA levels
genetic factors (conditions)
How you burn your daily energy intake
Non-exercise activty thermogenisi (NEAT) e.g shivering, fidgeting, or postural control
Energy required to digestion, absorption, metabolization, and store food takes up 10% of daily energyb intake
Resting Metabolic Rate (energy needed to survive at rest, not moving) 50-60% of energy goes on this
