NUT10V WEEK 2 PT.2 VIDEO 1: PROTEIN ON
FOOD LABELS - THE DAILY VALUE FOR PROTEIN
1.
Daily Value (DV) a. Used on food labels i. Nutrition Facts, FDA set daily value for proteins at 50g b. Based on 2,000 calorie diet c. No % Daily value since most consumers eat above 50g i. Calculate % Daily Value for protein 1. 3g per serving 2. Serving size ⅔ cup 3. Daily value for proteins = 50g a. 3g/50gx100 = 6%
VIDEO 2: MEETING
PROTEIN NEEDS - CONCEPT OF PROTEIN WHY DO WE NEED PROTEIN? SOURCE OF NITROGEN AND EAA FOOD PROTEIN DIFFERS IN THEIR EAA COMPOSITION 1. Protein quality a. Food sources differ in quality of protein present because proteins have varying amounts of each EAA they provide. The type/amount of EAA in black beans will be different than beef 2. Protein quality test a. Measure indirectly i. Biological test b. Directly i.
Chemical test
1
c. EAA determines quality of food since our body can't make EAA and must be obtained through diet 3. Complete protein a. Contain all 9 EAA i. Amounts proportional to need ii. Digestivas proteins b. Eggs i.
Eggs have highest protein quality - perfect 1. All essential amino acids
c. Soy Foods d. Beef and other meats e. Protein powders f. Dairy g. Fish 4. Cricket craze a. Complete protein b. Sustainable source of protein 5. Incomplete proteins a. Low in one or more essential amino acids in amount proportional to needs b. Plant products i. Beans ii. iii.
Grains Seeds
iv.
Nuts
VIDEO 3: PROTEIN
QUALITY TEST
1. Measure indirectly a. Protein efficiency ratio (PER) i. ii.
Feed test protein to lab rats Measure weight gain relevant to protein eaten
b. PER(low or high) = Weight Gain/Protein Eaten i. Fish, Milk, Beef = high PER and Complete protein ii. Wheat, Corn = Low PER and Incomplete protein 2. Direct measure a. Chemical score (ONLY FOR EAA NOT NEAA) i. Compare food protein EAA levels relative to egg white protein EAA levels (gold standard egg white protein) 2
1.
Amino acids - Lysine (EAA)
2. Egg white - 7.0 3. White flour Protein - 2.1 a. 2.1/7.0x100 = 30% 1. White flour protein is only 30% as good to ii.
egg whites The EAA with the lowest percentage computed provides the chemical
score b. Complete proteins - High chemical score c. Incomplete proteins - low chemical scores i. Below 70 3. Limiting amino acid (LAA) a. Lowest amount relevant to need b. Most grain products are low in i. Lysine
VIDEO 4: PROTEIN
QUALITY ISSUES FOR INFANTS, CHILDREN, AND VEGANS 1. Vegetarian diets a. NO animal products b. Vegetable based protein diet i. Decreases risk of diseases 1.
Lower risk for heart disease, lower risk of colorectal cancer and type two diabetes, healthy body composition
c. Lower body weight and healthy weight gain over time d. More meatless meals has health benefits e. Vegetarians should combine protein sources to complement incomplete proteins
