Vitamins

Macronutrients
Carbs
Proteins
Energy sources
Proteins and carbs: 4 cal/g
Fats: 9 cal/g
Metabolism: stores and uses energy as required
Synthesis: anabolism
Breakdown of storage: catabolism
Basal metabolic rate: energy for body maintenance
Approx 10 cal/lb
Lower if high adipose tissue and low muscle tissue (less energy required)
Decreased Hunger
Sympathetic stimulation
Pain
Stress
Trauma
Low Iron
Medications
Normal Regulation of Hunger
Hunger
Hypothalamic stimulation via CNS peptides + Ghrelin
Ghrelin (G-receptor binding):
Stimulates peristalsis
Dopamine release
Pancreas stimulation
Satiety
CNS signaling to shut off hunger stimulus
CCK: digestion of fat + protein
PYY: inhibits gut motility
Insulin
Leptin: shuts of Ghrelin
