Front 1

What are the tradition diets of developing countries?

Back 1

Primarily stachy vetetables

Front 2

As Income increases.....

Back 2

food availability increases and physical activity decreases

Front 3

These chronic diseases are related to poor nutrition

Back 3

Cardio vacular disease
Obesity
Diabetes
Hypertension
Cancer

Front 4

Rural, Traditional Diets are composed of _____ and are ________, which causes________

Back 4

Low fat, low sugar, high fiber, LITTLE variety, carbs as staples. --> inadequate in energy and or nutrients --> undernutrition and increased risk of infection

Front 5

Affluent Western diets are composed of ________ and are ________ which leads to ________

Back 5

High fat, high fugar, low fiber, very diverse diets, high in animal protein ---> nutrionally adequate bu imprudent ---> over nutrition, obesity, heart disease, stroke etc

Front 6

Malnutrition begins during pregnancy, the fetus is deficient in________

Back 6

vitamin B12 and Iron

Front 7

Low Birth Weight Infants have____ and ______. This results in __________

Back 7

high infant mortality rate and a depressed immunity. This results in small weak children who are shorter than usual and undernourised as adults

Front 8

What are the two main causes of undernutrition?

Back 8

1. Food Shortages
2. Poor quality diets

Front 9

Food shortages care caused by _____

Back 9

1. famine due to diaster, poverty, disease
2. Poverty: food insecurity, disease, less access to education
3. Overpopulation: less developed countries have massive population growth which puts a strain on the environment
3. culatural practices
4. limited environment resources: not enough arable land

Front 10

Poor quality diets are deficient in _______, ________, and _______. They are ________ energy malnutritive.

Back 10

vitamin a, iron, and iodine. They are protein energy malnutritve

Front 11

Protein Energy Malnutrition and two diseases associated with it.

Back 11

the wasting and increasing infection rates dut to insufficient kcal and protein to meet needs.
1) marasmus
2)Kwashiorkor

Front 12

Marasmus

Back 12

lack of energy and skinny (look similar to someone who is anorexic)
associated with Protein Energy malnutrition

Front 13

Kwarhiorkor

Back 13

sufficient calorie intake but not enough protein. Eatting too many grains. Infections and inflated bellys.
associated with Protein Energy malnutrition

Front 14

Causes of Iron Deficiency

Back 14

Caused by not eatting meat, loss of blood, not eatting an iron source with vitamin C.

Front 15

Effects of Iron Deficiency

Back 15

Leads to increased risk of maternal/fetal mortality, premature births, low birth weight babies, slow mental development, decreased resistance to infection, fatigue, kids who get sick more often

Front 16

what causes an Iodine Deficency

Back 16

Not enough salt or things grown near the sea, regions with deficient soil (prevented with iodized salt)

Front 17

Effects of Iodine deficiency

Back 17

stillborn babies, impaired cognitive development, cretinism (stunted growth and cognitive abilities), in adults can cause poor decision making, goiter (enlarged thyroid gland)
it is the greatest cause of preventable developmental problems.

Front 18

Effects of Vitamin A deficiency

Back 18

leading cause of preventable blindness, affects more than 250 million preschool children, causes blindness, depressed immunitiy, and slows growth.

Need for Vit A increases with infections

Front 19

Malnutrition In Utero: common deficiencies and consequences

Back 19

energy, iodine, and folate.
results in low birth weight, brain damage, neural tube defects

Front 20

Malnutrition in infants: common deficiencies and consequences

Back 20

protein, energy, iron, iodine, vitamin A. results in growth retardation, anemia, development retardation, goiter, and infection/blindness

Front 21

Malnutrition in Adolescents: common deficiencies and consequences

Back 21

protein, energy, iron, iodine, vitamin A, calcium. Results in delayed growth, anemia, impaired intellectual development, infection/blindness, inadequate bone mineralization

Front 22

Malnutrition in Pregnant Women: common deficiencies and consequences

Back 22

Protein energy, folate, iron, iodine, vitamin A. results in intrauterine growth retardation, increased mortality of mother and baby, maternal anemia, neural tube defects, cretinism in infant, goiter in mother, infection, blindness

Front 23

Malnutrition in Elderly Adults

Back 23

energy, calcium and protein. results in lethargy, thinness, osteoporosis fractures

Front 24

Malnutrition in Adults: common deficiencies and consequences

Back 24

energy, protein, iron. results in thinness, lethargy, anemia

Front 25
