Glucose levels and gycemic index tested in the blood systems of university students over a ninety minute time period. After ingesting high‚ medium‚ low carbohydrate foods. Authors Mark McDonald‚ Elliot Ness ‚Michael Joseph‚ Brendon Myers Abstract Introduction The blood glucose level is measured on how much of a rise is in the blood‚ carbohydrates trigger– the glucose and with this we get a blood glucose response. A low( Glycemic index) GI food you will see a small rise‚ while a high GI will

discussion will also include major subtypes of molecules. The four Major biological molecules are Carbohydrates‚ Lipids‚ Proteins‚ nucleic acids. Carb is an abbreviation for carbohydrates. The body breaks down carbohydrates into simple sugars. Carbohydrates are easily used for energy by the body. The nervous system and brain need the glucose formed from breakdown of carbohydrates. If carbohydrates are not available‚ the body burns lipids/fats for energy. Lipids is the scientific name for fats

Generally speaking diabetes is not an uncommon disorder. In fact‚ Whiting et al (2011) states that diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases in nearly all countries. There are two main types of diabetes mellitus: type 1 and type 2. Fonseca (2006) defines type 2 diabetes mellitus as a disorder characterised by an insulin resistance followed by a progressive decline in β-cell function. Type 2 diabetics produce insulin but the target cells for insulin fail to respond‚ therefore blood glucose

Dancer’s nutrition To be a healthy and successful dancer you need a balanced diet to ensure your body has maximum energy. A massive part of a dancer’s health is what they consume and the nutrients such as carbohydrates‚ fats‚ protein‚ vitamins‚ minerals‚ fibre and water that they take in through these foods. The amount of these nutrients that are in the food we eat varies a lot so we need to make sure we eat a variety of different foods to fulfil the body’s requirements of all nutrients. The five

Carbohydrateby Anthrone Method Carbohydrates are the important components of storage and structural materials in the plants.They exist as free sugars and polysaccharides. The basic units of carbohydrates are themonosaccharides which cannot be split by hydrolysis into more simpler sugars. The carbohy-drate content can be measured by hydrolysing the polysaccharides into simple sugars by acidhydrolysis and estimating the resultant monosaccharides. PRINCIPLE Carbohydrates are first hydrolysed into simple
