Nutrition is about eating a healthy and balanced diet. Food and drink provide the energy and nutrients we need to be healthy. The foods we eat provide energy (calories) and nutrients such as protein, fat, carbohydrate, vitamins, minerals, and water. Eating healthy foods in the right amounts gives our body energy to perform daily activities, helps us to maintain a healthy body weight, and can lower risk for many health issues.
Nutrient
Nutrients are chemical compounds in food that are used by the body to function properly and maintain health. Examples include proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.
Calories
A unit of energy in food. Carbohydrates, fats, protein in the foods we eat and drinks we take provide food energy or “calories.”
Protein
Protein is in every living cell in the body. Our body needs protein from the foods that we eat to build and maintain bones, muscles, and skin. We need to eat protein every day, because our body doesn’t store it the way it stores fats or carbohydrates. Protein helps to build muscle tissue, maintain lean muscle mass and provides energy.
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are one of the main types of nutrients. Our digestive system changes carbohydrates into glucose (blood sugar). Our body uses this sugar for energy for our cells, tissues and organs. It stores any extra sugar in our liver and muscles for when it is needed. There are two types of carbohydrates: simple and complex. Simple carbohydrates include natural and added sugars. Complex carbohydrates include whole grain breads and cereals, starchy vegetables and legumes.
Total Fat
Fat is a type of nutrient. We need a certain amount of fat in our diet to stay healthy, but not too much. Fats give us energy and help our body absorb vitamins. Dietary fat also plays a major role in our cholesterol levels. Not all fats are the same. We should try to avoid saturated fats and trans fats.
Fiber
Fiber is a substance in plants. Dietary fiber is the kind we eat. It’s a type of carbohydrate. We may also see it listed on a food label as soluble fiber or insoluble fiber. Both types have important health benefits. Fiber makes us feel full faster, and stay full for a longer time. That can help us control our weight. It helps digestion and helps prevent constipation.
Diet
Our diet is made up of what we eat and drink. There are many different types of diets, such as vegetarian diets, weight loss diets, and diets for people with certain health problems.
Dietary Supplements
A dietary supplement is a product we take to supplement our diet. It contains one or more dietary ingredients (including vitamins; minerals; herbs or other botanicals; amino acids; and other substances). Supplements do not have to go through the testing that drugs do for effectiveness and safety.
Digestion
Digestion is the process the body uses to break down food into nutrients. The body uses the nutrients for energy, growth, and cell repair.
Dehydration
Dehydration is a condition that happens when we do not take in enough liquids to replace those that we lose. We can lose liquids through frequent urinating, sweating, diarrhoea, or vomiting. When we are dehydrated, our body does not have enough fluid and electrolytes to work properly.
Electrolytes
Electrolytes are minerals in body fluids. They include sodium, potassium, magnesium, and chloride. When we are dehydrated, our body does not have enough fluid and electrolytes.
Water Intake
We all need to drink water. How much we need depends on our size, activity level, and the weather where we live. Keeping track of our water intake helps make sure that we get enough. Our intake includes fluids that we drink, and fluids we get from food.
