in humans and animals. It is the central component of the cofactors FAD and FMN‚ and is therefore required by all flavoproteins. As such‚ vitamin B2 is required for a wide variety of cellular processes. It plays a key role in energy metabolism‚ and for the metabolism of fats‚ ketone bodies‚ carbohydrates‚ and proteins. It is also used as an orange-red food colour additive‚ designated in Europe as the E number E101‚[2] Milk‚ cheese‚ leaf vegetables‚ liver‚ kidneys‚ legumes‚ tomatoes‚ yeast‚ mushrooms

Since hypoglycemia is the most adverse effect‚ it could be life threatening‚ so you want to make sure theYL has emergency sugar supply with her at all times. Ex. Hard candies‚ juices‚ etc. and carbs (to stabilize).

Introduction: When the body exercises‚ it uses two types of fuel‚ carbohydrates‚ and fatty acids. At the beginning of exercise the main source of fuel is carbohydrates‚ however the duration of the exercise progresses the carbohydrates deplete and fatty acids are needed to maintain the exercise. The type of fuel being used can be seen in the ratio called‚ respiratory exchange rate‚ or RER. An RER of 0.7 means that carbohydrates are being used for fuel‚ and a ratio of 1.0 means that only fatty acids

The Endocrine system helps to maintain homeostasis by secreting hormones into the bloodstream‚ which travels throughout the body. This system regulates activities such as growth and development and influence emotions and behavior. The relationship of this system alongside the other body systems is how the body maintain a stable equilibrium‚ regulating the activity of the organ systems. Nervous - The endocrine system acts as a communication tool within the human body‚ working alongside with the nervous

Chapter 12: The Antioxidant Nutrients - start march 4 at ~ 42 mins - Slide 1 * we produce a lot of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from reactions in the body‚ especially from energy metabolism * these ROS can damage the molecules in the body‚ especially in dna and rna molecules and lipids. This can have serious consequences on the health of the individual * one of the ways that the body deals with ROS is by having compounds that can help to neutralize the radicals or protect the body

95 % of elimination takes place here (Buijsch‚ 2007). Urinary excretion accounts for about 2.4 % Tacrolimus elimination. Concentration of Tacrolimus metabolites is reported to increase through the biliary distraction (Buijsch‚ 2007). Tacrolimus metabolism goes through o-demethylation‚ hydroxylation and oxidtie metabolic reaction by the enzymes of ‚ CYP3A4 and CYP3A5‚ in the liver and the intestinal walls.

P5. Explaining the Concept of Homeostasis. M2. Probable homeostatic response’s to changes in the internal environment during exercise. The actual word homeostasis means "steady state". Homeostasis describes how the body regulates its process to keep its internal conditions as stable as possible. Homeostasis is necessary because human cells are efficient but very demanding. The phrase homeostasis is a bit confusing; conditions inside our bodies are not constant but are kept within a narrow

This unit introduces core knowledge of cellular structure and function‚ and the organisation of the body as a whole‚ and then builds on this to develop a more detailed knowledge of the fine anatomy and physiology of the systems involved in energy metabolism. Learners will examine the homeostatic mechanisms involved in regulating these systems to maintain health. Learners will be given the opportunity to undertake practical activities which will require them to take measurements of the cardio-vascular
