Drug Medical Information
BASIC FOOD COMPONENTS: THE ENERGY NUTRIENTS
Six categories of nutrients—carbohydrates, fats, and proteins (the energy nutrients), and vitamins, minerals, and water (the nonenergy nutrients)—satisfy the basic body needs:
• Energy for muscle contraction
• Conduction of nerve impulses
• Growth
• Formation of new tissue and tissue repair
• Chemical regulation of metabolic functions
• Reproduction
The body's use of these nutrients for conversion into tissue, production of energy for muscle contraction, and maintenance of chemical machinery is called metabolism.
THE ENERGY NUTRIENTS:
CARBOHYDRATES, FATS, AND PROTEINS
Carbohydrates and fat provide the body with its two main sources of energy. All food has energy potential, measured in calories. Since one calorie is too small a unit to be convenient, nutritionists use a large, or kilocalorie (kcal), as a measure. One kilocalorie is equal to 1,000 small calories. One kilocalorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one kilogram (about one quart) of water one degree Celsius. The energy in one peanut, for example, can add one degree of heat to two gallons of water. Only carbohydrates, fats, and protein contain calories; vitamins, minerals, and water do not.
Just how much energy do these nutrients provide? Carbohydrates and protein contain 4 cal per gram (g), fat contains 9 kcal per g, and alcohol contains 7 kcal per g (1 g equals 1/5 of a level teaspoon, 100 g equal 1/2 cup, 1 milligram [mg] equals .001 g).
Basal metabolism is the number of calories expended by a resting person over a 24-hour period to meet the energy requirements of the cellular and tissue processes in a resting state. Basal metabolism depends on age, gender, height, weight, and activity patterns (work and play).
