What are the diet-planning principles?
Adequacy
Balance
kCalorie control
nutrient Density
Moderation
Variety
Adequacy
providing all the essential nutrients, fiber, and energy in amounts sufficient to maintain health
Balance (dietary)
providing foods in proportion to each other and in proportion to the body's needs
kCalorie (energy) control
management of food energy intake
nutrient density
a measure of the nutrients a food provides relative to the energy it provides. The more nutrients and the fewer kcalories, the higher the nutrient density
empty kcalorie foods
foods that contribute energy but lack protein, vitamins, and minerals
moderation (dietary)
providing enough but not too much of a substance
variety (dietary)
eating a wide selection of foods within and among the major food groups
Food Groups
fruits
vegetables
grains
meat and legumes
milk
food group plans
diet-planning tools that sort food into groups based on nutrient content and then specify that people should eat certain amounts of foods from each group
legumes
plants of the bean and pea family, with seeds that are rich in protein compared with other plant-derived foods
discretionary kCalorie allowance
the kCalories remaining in a person's energy allowance after consuming enough nutrient-dense foods to meet all nutrient needs for a day
exchange lists
diet-planning tools that organize foods by their proportions of carbohydrate, fat, and protein. Foods on any single list can be used interchangeably. Originally developed for people with diabetes
processed foods
foods that have been treated to change their physical, chemical, microbiological, or sensory properties
fortified
the addition to a food of nutrients that were either not originally present or present in insignificant amounts. Fortification can be used to correct or prevent a widespread nutrient deficiency or to balance the total nutrient profile of a food.
refined
the process by which the coarse parts of a food are remove3d. When wheat is refined into flour, the bran, germ, and husk are removed, leaving only the endosperm
enriched
the addition to a food of nutrients that were lost during processing so that the food will meet a specified standard
whole grain
a grain milled in its entirety (all but the husk), not refined
textured vegetable protein
processed soybean protein used in vegetarian products such as soy burgers
imitation foods
cheese products (vegan)
food substitutes
foods that are designed to replace other foods (egg substitutes)
Daily Values (DV)
reference values developed by the FDA specifically for use on food labels
(20%=good source, 10-19%=good, below 5%=low)
nutrient claims
statements that characterize the quantity of a nutrient in a food
health claims
statements that characterize the relationship between a nutrient or other substance in a food and a disease or health-related condition
structure-function claims
statements that characterize the relationship between a nutrient or other substance in a food and its role in the body
lactovegetarians
milk and milk products
no: meat, poultry, fish, seafood, eggs
lacto-ovo-vegetarians
milk, milk products, eggs
no: meat, poultry, fish seafood
macrobiotic diets
extremely restrictive diets limited to a few grains and vegetables based on metaphysical beliefs and not on nutrition
meat replacements
products formulated to look and taste like meat, fish, or poultry; usually made of textured vegetable protein
tempeh
fermented soybean food, rich in protein and fiber
vegans=total vegetarians=pure vegetarians=strict vegetarians
exclude all animal and animal-derived products
