18 y/o female
incomplete diet & poor health
Fatigue
vitamin B12, D, potassium, iron deficiency
If current diet is continued
worsening of vitamin deficiencies
symptoms escalate
health crisis
hospitalization
return to adequate nutrient levels,
health crisis abates
release
return to fad diet
cycle repeats
recognition of poor diet
dietary adjustments made (recommended)
death
e. g. vitamin C
scurvy
swollen, bleeding gingiva
painful eating
reinforcement to avoid vitamin C-rich fods
slowly healing wounds
muscle and joint pain
anemia
decreased oxygen flow to tissues
adverse effects to every organ system
further deviation from homeostasis
Vitamins
typically serve as
coenzymes in the body
water-soluble
B vitamins
Coenzymes in metabolism
and other functions
good source: many foods,
depending on the B vitamin
RDA differs depending on B vitamin
C
used in collagen synthesis and
as an antioxidant
a must-have for skeletal system
good source:
fruits and veggies
RDA: 60mg
fat-soluble
A
good source:
green & orange fruits & veggies
RDA: 900mcg (men)
or 700mcg (women)
antioxidant, visual pigments, epithelial tissue maintenance
must-have for healthy integumentary system
D
RDA: 15mcg
good source: skin makes it when exposed to sunlight
calcium and phosphorus use &
absorption
E
RDA: 15mg
good source: vegetable oils
antioxidant
prevents nervous system degeneration
sue to plasma membrane breakdown
K
good source: green veggies
helps with blood coagulation
important for cardiovascular system

or 120mcg (men)
Main macromolecules
Lipids
monomer: triglycerides & fatty acids
insulation, protection, energy storage
found in oils, plant and animal fats
Carbohydrates
monomer: glucose
found in starches, grains, and sugars
energy source
nucleic acids
monomer: nucleotide bases
rapidly growing vegetables and animal products
DNA and RNA formation
proteins
monomer: amino acids and peptides
tissue growth and maintenance
found in meat, beans, tofu, and other plant and animal products
Minerals
chemical element required by the body
for growth & maintenance
Calcium
good source: dark green veggies
bone formation, muscle function
skeletal and muscular systems must have
RDA: 1000 mg
Potassium
nerve function, acid-base balance
urinary system must have
good sources: meat, dairy, fruits and veggies, grains
insufficient evidence for RDA development
Sodium
good source: salty foods
RDA: no MORE than 2,500 mg
important for water balance, blood pressure, and nerve function
necessary in proper amounts for urinary system
Phosphorus
good sources: dairy, meat, grains
bone and tooth formation
RDA: 700mg
recommended dietary allowance (RDA)
minimum amount consumed of a
nutrient per day for good health
Water
main component of ECF and ICF
maintains fluid balance in body
Amenorrhea
Jaundice

If dietary adjustments are made (recommended)
restoration of homeostasis to body systems
alleviation of signs and symptoms
recognition of the importance of a balanced diet
