DEFINE/LIST: disaccharides
(all of them contain ...?) |
The formation of two monosaccharides.
-sucrose -lactose -maltose (all of them contain glucose) |
|
Sucrose, Lactose, Maltose
-made how? -found where? |
S: 2 sugar glucous & fructose
found in honey, sugarcane-processed to make different forms of sugars(brn,wht,pwd) L: glucolse+ glalctose milk products M: results in the breakdown of starch to just 2 glucose molecules. found in beer, liquor |
|
3 groups of complex carbs
list one important nutritional fact for each |
polysaccarides (starch)
-amylose long straigh chain of glucose units 20% of digestable starch in veggies -amylopectin: highly branched Fiber -cellulous: cant be digested. |
|
What is Glycogen?
Where is it stored? How can each store be used by the body? |
Carbohydrate made of multiple units of glucose with a highly branched structure.
AKA: animal starch storage form of glucose -stored in the liver and muscles - can maintain blood glucose avalibility when diet does not supply enough carbs. |
|
Dietary Fiber
|
Fiber found in foods
|
|
Soluable Fibers
(identify the sources and functions of them ) |
fibers that can dissolve of swell when put in water
-from plant cells - pectins, gums, mucilages, some forms of hemicelluloses - found in salad dressings, frozen desserts, jas. |
|
Insoluable Fibers
(identify the sources and functions of them ) |
Fibers that readily dissolve in water not are easily meabolized by intestinal bacteria
- cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin - whole grains |
|
Identify that various sugar substitutes or alternatives sweeteners and sugar alchols.
|
Saccharin:
Apertame: Neotama: Acesulfame K: Sucralose: |
|
Saccharin:
|
oldest sweetener 1/2 the alt sweetener market in N America
|
|
Apertame:
|
Equal(powder) 4kcal/gram 200x sweeter then sucrose
|
|
Neotama:
|
nonnutrative, high-intensity sweetener7,000-13,00x sweeter then table sugar
|
|
Acesulfame K:
|
200x sweeterthan sucrose, no cal diets
can be used well baking cause it doesnt lose it sweetness with heat. |
|
Sucralose:
|
600 times sweeter than sucrose
can be used in cooking |
|
3 functions of simple carbohyrates
|
1. basic uni of all sugar structures
2. Energy |
