FOOD AND NUTRITION & The Digestive System Lecture No. 10 FOOD AND NUTRITION Food Food is any edible material that supports growth‚ repair and maintenance of the body. Foods are substances containing nutrients Nutrients are needed for: • Cell repair • Cell growth • Energy • Protection Food Classification of foods: A. According to the source of origin 1. Animal foods 2. Plant foods B. According to the calorigenicity 1. Calorigenic foods 2. Non-Calorigenic foods C. According to the main

Nutrition has to do with the human digestive system because in order for you to get nutrition you have to be able to digest it‚ to get it across the cell membrane to distributed threw out your body. There are two types of digestion mechanical and chemical. Mechanical digestion is the breakdown of without altering the chemical composition . In order to digest a material the food has to go through many organs .The order in which it goes is the mouth ( oral cavity)‚ pharynx

enzymes that could force the sphincter to emit the reflux. D. How will protein digestion be affected by Chloe’s surgery? The proteins would be flushed out of the body quicker than usual with the high vulnerability of malabsorption. Normally‚ pepsin begins the enzymatic digestion of the ingested proteins; they linger in the stomach longer than most of the ingested food with the end result of gastric protein digestion is a chyme of mostly polypeptides and some free amino acids to be absorbed in

they need every day to survive. In order to do this they have a specialised digestive system where there is an efficient absorption of energy. Food passes through very quickly and is all absorbed‚ leaving little waste. Birds have no teeth so digestion does not begin in the mouth‚ all of the food breakdown must occur within the digestive system. Food enters through the mouth where it passes down the esophagus into the crop. This organ is where the food is stored and begins to soften. From here

enzymatic reaction will take place. Enzymatic reaction is known as digestion and this is defined as the chemical breakdown of the ingested complex food molecules by the action of biological enzymes‚ into simplest form that can be absorbed into the blood stream and assimilated into living cells. In human beings‚ various components of the ingested food are digested and absorbed at various sections of the alimentary canal . The first digestion process starts at the mouth in which cooked starch is reduced

add-ons within the mouth and hold it in place while the teeth crush or tear it. The incisors and canines primarily cut and tear the hamburger‚ while the premolars and molars primarily crush and grind it. Mastication begins the process of mechanical digestion‚ in which the hamburger particles are broken down into smaller ones. The tongue moves the hamburger in the mouth and‚ in cooperation with the lips and cheeks‚ holds the hamburger in place during mastication. During this process‚

Diarrhea Causes & Causes of Diarrhea Most of the time we know what caused our diarrhea‚ right? You had a meal and within 2 hours you were stuck on the toilet. Or you had some ice cream and an hour later the diarrhea hit you. Or maybe it was the next morning. But what is it about that meal or that ice cream that has you screaming‚ "I hate diarrhea!"? Or what about other times when diarrhea seems to come out of nowhere? What caused it then? I’m going to share with you a number of causes of diarrhea

chemical digestion that is in the mouth. Amylase is an enzyme that catalysts the breakdown of starch into sugars. Amylase is present in human saliva‚ where it begins the chemical process of digestion. Digestion prepares food for use by cells. It breaks down large complex food molecules and turns it into small‚ soluble food molecules. There are two types of digestion. Mechanical Digestion‚ which is the process of physically breaking down big chunks of food to smaller chunks‚ and Chemical Digestion‚ which
