Some low fat or non-fat food contain a large amount of sugar to replace the fat content of the food. Describe how this leads to increased fat in the body (and weight gain) even though the item is non-fat.
Part One:
Your friend believes that all fats must be bad for one’s health, so he is trying to restrict his dietary fat intake to a minimum. Give him five reasons why he should never restrict his fats to a very low level. Please give a 2 to 3 sentence explanation for each.
Part Two:
Think of a meal that you regularly eat for dinner. Record it, being as specific as you can about ingredients and amounts. Analyze this meal for both its quantity and quality of fats in several sentences. Then, give this meal a makeover, optimizing the quantity and quality of fats it contains. Record the optimal meal, and describe and explain the changes you made.
Discuss how carbohydrates can be stored as fat.

- Which of the following statements is not true? a. Essential nutrients can be synthesized by the body. b. Vitamins are required in small quantities for bodily function. c. Some amino acids can be synthesized by the body, while others need to be obtained from diet. d. Vitamins come in two categories: fat-soluble and water-soluble.arrow_forwardThe preferred energy sources for the body are ________.arrow_forwardEffects of Dietary Fats on Lipoprotein Levels Cholesterol that is made by the liver or that enters the body from food does not dissolve in blood, so it is carried through the bloodstream by lipoproteins. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) carries cholesterol to body tissues such as artery walls, where it can form deposits associated with cardiovascular disease. Thus, LDL is often called bad cholesterol. Highdensity lipoprotein (HDL) carries cholesterol away from tissues to the liver for disposal, so HDL is often called good cholesterol. In 1990, Ronald Mensink and Martijn Katan published a study that tested the effects of different dietary fats on blood lipoprotein levels. Their results are shown in Figure 2.23. In which group was the level of LDL (bad cholesterol) highest?arrow_forward

Figure 2.23 Effect of diet on lipoprotein levels. Researchers placed 59 men and women on a diet in which 10 percent of their daily energy intake consisted of cis fatty acids, trans fatty acids, or saturated fats. Blood LDL and HDL levels were measured after three weeks on the diet; averaged results are shown in mg/dL (milligrams per deciliter of blood). All subjects were tested on each of the diets. The ratio of LDL to HDL is also shown. Source, Mensink RP, Katan MB, Effect of dietary trans fatty acids on high-density and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in healthy subjects.
