Answer: When energy intake falls below needs, a variety of problems arise—physical and mental activity declines; growth slows or ceases altogether; muscle and fat wasting occurs; the immune system weakens, increasing susceptibility to disease; and death rates rise (Fig. 3-1). The consequences of micronutrient deficiencies can be equally devastating. For example, vitamin A deficiency, found in approximately 30% of children under age 5 in developing countries, damages the eyes and sometimes causes blindness. Vitamin A deficiency also increases vulnerability to common diseases, such as measles, diarrhea, and respiratory infections. Iodine deficiency is the world's leading cause of preventable mental retardation and brain damage.

86) Compare a food secure household to one with very low food security. Answer: In the U.S., the Department of Agriculture (USDA) monitors food security, defined as "access by all people at all times to enough food for an active, healthy life." Food insecurity, or lack of this access (Table 3-1), contributes to serious health and nutritional problems for millions of people. For instance, food-insecure individuals often eat fewer servings of nutrient-dense foods, such as vegetables, milk, and meat, and consume poorer-quality diets in general. These nutrient-poor diets can impair physical and mental health status and ability to learn. Food-insecure children are more likely to have poorer general health and report more asthma, stomachaches, headaches, and colds, and they may not grow normally. Behavioral problems in school, lower educational achievement, higher rates of depression and suicidal symptoms, and increased levels of psychological distress also have been linked to food insecurity. Parents may compromise their own diets to allow children to have better diets. Food-insecure adults have a higher risk of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, and poorer management of these diseases.

91) Describe and evaluate 3 objections to the use of genetically modified foods. Answer: Production of new allergens or toxins in GM foods Can increase in GM plants, just as they can with traditional plant breeding. Again, there is no evidence that this has occurred, but new GM plants should be scrutinized. • Development of glyphosate-resistant "superweeds." These superweeds have been found in different areas of the U.S. as well as several other countries. These weeds can reduce crop yields, and killing them requires larger applications of pesticides, raising concerns about environmental damage and higher costs for farmers. • Crossed species lines, such as inserting a gene from a fish into a grain. Consumers may find it unnatural to introduce the genes from an unrelated species into another, especially the transfer of animal genes into plants. • "Gene flow" from GM crops to plants not intended to be modified. • Development of Bt-resistant insects. This is of particular concern to organic farmers who, although they do not grow GM crops, apply Bacillus thuringiensis bacteria to crops as a biological pest management method. Bt resistance also may lead to increased pesticide use by nonorganic farmers. • Loss of genetic diversity. If GM crops are widely adopted, the use of local, indigenous, conventional seeds may decline and these plants may disappear. • Loss of cultural heritage with older, native foods. For example, in Mexico, traditional maize (corn) has a spiritual and cultural significance that is not fulfilled with GM corn. • Insufficient regulation and oversight of GM plants and animals. Some argue that more rigorous regulation, testing, and oversight are needed to assure safety and benefits for consumers. • Development of trade barriers. Regulations about GM foods vary around the world; thus, limitations of both imports and exports of foodstuffs can arise.

93) How do intentional food additives differ from incidental food additives? Give an example of each. Answer: Food additives can be classified as either intentional or incidental. Intentional food additives are purposely added to achieve a goal, such as a longer shelf life (preservative), greater nutritional value, or more appealing color or flavor. Flavors and flavor enhancers are the most commonly used group of food additives—over 2600 are in use. Examples of common food additives and their functions are given in Table 3-3. Incidental additives, also called indirect additives, are not intentionally added but become part of a food through some aspect of food cultivation, processing, packaging, transport, or storage. They have no function in finished products and their presence is not indicated on food ingredient labels. There are safety concerns about some of these incidental additives. The presence of pesticide residue and arsenic in some foods is an example (both of these environmental contaminants are discussed in Section 3.5). Another incidental additive of concern is bisphenol A (BPA).

98) Provide four suggestions for someone who commonly develops constipation. Answer: Answers will vary. Eating foods with plenty of fiber, such as whole-grain breads and cereals, beans, fruits, and vegetables, and drinking more fluid help treat typical cases of mild constipation. The recommended fiber intake for most adults is 25 to 38 grams per day. Fiber stimulates peristalsis by drawing water into the large intestine and helping form bulky, soft feces. The bulky fecal material stretches the peristaltic muscles; the muscles respond by constricting, causing the feces to be propelled forward.

Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 82) Why are premenopausal women at lower risk for heart disease when compared to men of the same age? Answer: Answers will vary. Many studies have demonstrated that the amount of HDL in the blood can closely predict the risk of cardiovascular disease. Risk increases with low HDL levels because little blood cholesterol is transported back to the liver and excreted. Women tend to have high amounts of HDL, especially before menopause, whereas low amounts are more common in men. Difficulty: 2 Medium Section: 06.09 Topic: Cardiovascular Disease Learning Objective: 06.09 Describe dietary measures to reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 83) What is atherosclerosis and what key blood cholesterol factors are most associated with this disease? Answer: Answers will vary. Atherosclerosis, also referred to as hardening of the arteries, develops as plaque thickens in the vessel. This thickening eventually chokes off the blood supply to organs, setting the stage for a heart attack and other problems, or it breaks apart and causes a clot to form in an artery. Typically, high LDL and low HDL values are associated with higher risk.

89) Evaluate the following statement: "Heart disease is more likely due to genetics than diet." Answer: Answers will vary. Having a close relative who died prematurely from CVD, especially before age 50, may increase the risk. Those with the highest risk of premature CVD have genetic defects that block the removal of chylomicrons and triglycerides from the blood, reduce the liver's ability to remove LDL-cholesterol from the blood, limit the synthesis of HDL-cholesterol, or increase blood clotting. However, a genetic link does not ENSURE an individual will suffer from a similar fate. Diet and lifestyle practices that are preventative in nature are important regardless of genetic history.

Although all amino acids are needed for life, 11 of them do not need to be obtained from the diet. They are classified as nonessential (or dispensable) amino acids because our bodies make them, using other amino acids we consume (Table 7-1). The 9 amino acids the body cannot make are known as nutritionally essential (or indispensable) amino acids because they must be obtained from foods. Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized in the body because body cells cannot make the carbon skeleton of the amino acid, cannot attach an amino group to the carbon skeleton, or cannot do the whole process fast enough to meet the body's needs.

For example, a person with the genetic disease phenylketonuria (PKU) has a limited ability to metabolize the essential amino acid phenylalanine due to a deficiency of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase. This enzyme is needed to convert phenylalanine to the nonessential amino acid tyrosine. As a result, individuals with PKU cannot produce sufficient tyrosine, thereby making tyrosine a "conditionally" essential amino acid because it must be obtained from the diet.

81) What is a limiting amino acid? Answer: Answers will vary. The essential amino acid in smallest supply in a food or diet in relation to body needs is called the limiting amino acid because it limits the amount of protein the body can synthesize. For example, assume the letters of the alphabet represent the 20 different amino acids we need Difficulty: 1 Easy Section: 07.01 Topic: Proteins Learning Objective: 07.02 Define essential and nonessential amino acids and explain why adequate amounts of each of the essential amino acids are required for protein synthesis. Bloom's: Remember Est Time: 3-5 minutes 82) Define the four levels of protein organization. Answer: Answers will vary. Four different levels of structure are found in proteins. The primary structure of a protein is the linear sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. Secondary structure consists of areas in the polypeptide chain that have a specific shape stabilized by hydrogen and sulfur bonds. The 3-dimensional shape of proteins is called tertiary structure. It determines the function of the protein. Some proteins also show quaternary structure where 2 or more protein units join together to form a larger protein, such as hemoglobin, depicted in the figure Difficulty: 2 Medium Section: 07.02 Topic: Protein synthesis and organization Learning Objective: 07.01 Describe how amino acids form proteins. Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 83) Explain why denaturation of a protein destroys its biological function. Answer: Answers will vary. Protein is partly uncoiled during a denatured state.

84) Define and explain the importance of "protein turnover." Answer: Answers will vary. Most vital body proteins are in a constant state of breakdown, rebuilding, and repair. This process, called protein turnover, allows cells to adapt to changing circumstances. For example, when we eat more protein than necessary for health, the liver makes more enzymes to process the waste product from the resulting amino acid metabolism—namely, ammonia— into urea. Overall, protein turnover is a process by which a cell can respond to its changing environment by increasing the production of needed proteins while reducing the production of proteins not currently needed.

Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 91) Compare and contrast kwashiorkor and marasmus. Answer: Answers will vary. PEM usually occurs as either marasmus or kwashiorkor. These conditions differ in the severity of the overall energy and protein deficit and the related clinical characteristics (Fig. 7-15). Marasmus develops slowly from a severe deficiency of energy (and, in turn, protein and micronutrients). Over time, this leads to extreme weight loss, muscle and fat loss, and growth impairment. Kwashiorkor occurs more rapidly in response to a severe protein deficit, typically accompanied by underlying infections or disease. Kwashiorkor is characterized by edema, mild to moderate weight loss, growth impairment, and the development of a fatty liver (excess accumulation of fat in the liver).

94) What suggestions would you give to a mother who would like her 5-year-old child to follow a vegetarian diet? Answer: Answers will vary. At the forefront of nutritional concerns for vegetarians are riboflavin, vitamins D and B-12, calcium, iron, and zinc. A major source of riboflavin, vitamin D, and calcium in the typical North American diet is milk, which is omitted from the vegan diet. However, riboflavin can be obtained from green leafy vegetables, whole-grain breads and cereals, yeast, and legumes—components of most vegan diets. Alternate sources of vitamin D include fortified foods (e.g., soy milk) and dietary supplements, as well as regular sun exposure. Calcium-fortified foods are the vegan's best option for obtaining calcium. These include fortified soy milk, fortified orange juice, calcium rich tofu (check the label), and certain ready-to-eat breakfast cereals, breads, and snacks. Green leafy vegetables also contain calcium, but it is not well absorbed. Dietary supplements provide another option for meeting calcium needs (see Part 4). It is important to read supplement labels and to plan supplement use carefully because a typical multivitamin and mineral supplement supplies only 25 to 45% of daily calcium needs. Vitamin B-12 occurs naturally only in animal foods. Plants can contain soil or microbial contaminants that provide trace amounts of vitamin B-12, but these are negligible sources of the vitamin. Therefore, vegans need to eat food fortified with vitamin B-12 or take supplements to protect against deficiency. Infants and children are at highest risk of nutrient deficiencies as a result of poorly planned vegetarian diets. However, with the use of complementary proteins and good sources of the problem nutrients discussed earlier, the energy, protein, vitamin, and mineral needs of vegetarian and vegan infants and children can be met. The most common nutritional concerns for infants and children following vegetarian and vegan diets are deficiencies of iron, vitamin B-12, vitamin D, zinc, and calcium. Vegetarian and vegan diets tend to be high in bulky, high fiber, low calorie foods that cause fullness. Although this side effect can be a welcome advantage for adults, children have a small stomach volume and relatively high nutrient needs for their size and may feel full before their energy needs are met. For this reason, the fiber content of a child's diet may need to be decreased by replacing high fiber sources with some refined grain products, fruit juices, and peeled fruit. Including concentrated sources of energy, such as fortified soy milk, nuts, dried fruits, and avocados, can help meet calorie and nutrient needs. Overall, vegetarian and vegan diets can be appropriate during infancy and childhood. However, to achieve normal growth and ensure adequate intake of all nutrients, these diets must be implemented with knowledge and, ideally, professional guidance Difficulty: 3 Hard Section: 07.08 Topic: Plant-based diets Learning Objective: 07.13 Develop a vegetarian diet plan that meets the body's protein needs.

95) Why are high-protein diets potentially harmful? Answer: Answers will vary. High protein diets may overburden the kidneys' capacity to excrete nitrogen wastes. Additionally, because water is needed to dilute and excrete urea, inadequate fluid intake can increase the risk of dehydration as the kidneys use body water to dispose of the urea. These concerns are greatest for people who already have impaired kidney function. A lower protein diet with adequate fluid intake is recommended for these individuals to help preserve kidney health. When excess protein is primarily from a high intake of animal proteins, the overall diet is likely to be low in plant-based foods and consequently low in fiber, some vitamins (vitamins C and E and folate), minerals (magnesium and potassium), and beneficial phyto-chemicals. Animal proteins are often rich in saturated fat and cholesterol and may be cured to create hot dogs, ham, salami, and luncheon meats. As a result, these diets can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer.

Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 96) What suggestions would you give to athletes taking multiple amino acid supplements? Answer: Answers will vary. Our bodies are designed to obtain amino acids from dietary sources of whole proteins. This assures a supply of amino acids in proportions needed for body functions and prevents amino acid toxicity, especially for methionine, cysteine, and histidine—the most toxic amino acids. When individual amino acid supplements are taken, chemically similar amino acids can compete for absorption, resulting in amino acid imbalances and toxicity risk.

Men use alcohol at higher rates than women. Difficulty: 2 Medium Section: 08.03 Topic: Alcohol Learning Objective: 08.02 Define the terms alcoholic drink equivalent and moderate drinking. Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 50) List 3 reasons why women are less tolerant of alcohol than men. Answer: Answers will vary. Compared with men, women produce less of the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme in the cells that line their stomachs—as a result, women absorb about 30% to 35% more unmetabolized alcohol from the stomach directly into the bloodstream. Another gender-related factor is that, in comparison with men, women are generally smaller in body size, have more body fat, and have less total body water. As a result, alcohol becomes more concentrated in the blood and body tissues of a woman than in a similar-size man because alcohol can be diluted by water, but not by adipose tissue. For these reasons, a woman becomes intoxicated on less alcohol than a similar-size man. Other factors that can affect alcohol metabolism include the alcohol content of the beverage, the amount of alcohol consumed, and the individual's usual alcohol intake. As described earlier, individuals who drink large amounts of alcohol regularly are able to metabolize alcohol more rapidly and have a greater tolerance to alcohol.

51) Describe 2 methods used to treat alcoholism. Answer: Answers will vary. The treatment of an AUD typically involves behavioral therapy, along with medication. Behavioral therapy is usually facilitated by a psychologist, social worker, or counselor. Important goals of counseling are to identify triggers for alcohol consumption and ways to compensate for the loss of pleasure from drinking. Total abstinence must be the ultimate objective because, for most alcoholics, there is no such thing as safe and controlled social drinking. Because other mental health disorders often go hand in hand with AUDs, these conditions must be treated as well for successful outcomes. Three medications are approved in the U.S. to treat AUDs.

53) How does alcohol abuse impair nutritional status? Answer: Answers will vary. Individuals who abuse alcohol often have poor nutritional status and are at risk of developing nutrient deficiencies for a variety of reasons. Alcohol, a poor source of nutrients, may replace food in the diet. For instance, if a person were to use beer as a nutrient source, he or she would need to consume daily 40 to 55 bottles (12 oz each) to meet protein needs and 65 bottles for thiamin needs. When an individual relies on alcohol for the majority of his or her energy needs, protein-energy malnutrition develops. The symptoms of protein-energy malnutrition with alcoholism are similar to those seen in individuals with kwashiorkor (see Chapter 7). In addition to protein deficiencies, deficiencies of vitamins and minerals can result in further complications. These deficiencies are usually the result of decreased intake, impaired absorption, altered metabolism, and alcohol-related tissue damage in the GI tract, liver, and pancreas.

Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 54) Describe the health consequences to the fetus of drinking alcohol during pregnancy. Answer: Answers will vary. If a woman chooses to drink during pregnancy, she may cause serious harm to her developing offspring. Alcohol slows nutrient and oxygen delivery to the fetus, thereby retarding growth and development. Alcohol also may displace nutrient dense foods in the mother's diet. Although the most severe damage occurs during the first 12 to 16 weeks of pregnancy, when organs are undergoing major developmental steps, consuming alcohol at any time during pregnancy can cause lifelong damage. The alcohol-related health consequences are known collectively as fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD). An individual with an FASD may experience a range of effects, including facial malformation (Fig. 8-8), growth retardation (including a smaller than normal brain), birth defects, lifelong learning disabilities, a short attention span, and hyperactivity. The most serious FASD is known as fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS). Individuals with FAS have facial malformations, growth deficits, and central nervous system problems.

57) How does the body absorb and digest low to moderate amounts of alcohol? Answer: Answers will vary. Alcohol, unlike most carbohydrate, protein, and fat molecules, requires no digestion. It also does not need specific transport mechanisms or receptors to enter cells. Therefore, it is absorbed rapidly throughout the digestive tract by simple diffusion. The stomach absorbs about 20% of ingested alcohol, with the remainder being absorbed in the duodenum and jejunum. When food is consumed with alcohol, absorption is slowed. Larger meals with a high fat content leave the stomach more slowly, thereby slowing the absorption of any alcohol consumed. In contrast, alcohol consumed on an empty stomach is absorbed quickly from the stomach and small intestine into the bloodstream. Alcohol is readily dispersed throughout the body because alcohol is found wherever water is distributed in the body. Alcohol moves easily through the cell membranes; however, as it does, it damages proteins in the membranes.

76) Explain the meaning of the phrase "fat burns in the flame of carbohydrates" in regards to how carbohydrates help in fat metabolism. Answer: Answers will vary. In addition to its role in energy production, the citric acid cycle provides compounds that leave the cycle and are used for other pathways. This results in a slowing of the cycle, as eventually not enough oxaloacetate is formed to combine with the acetyl-CoA entering the cycle. Cells are able to compensate for this by synthesizing additional oxaloacetate. One potential source of this additional oxaloacetate is pyruvate (Fig. 9-14). Thus, as fatty acids create acetyl-CoA, carbohydrates (e.g., glucose) are needed to keep the concentration of pyruvate high enough to resupply oxaloacetate to the citric acid cycle. Overall, the entire pathway for fatty acid oxidation works better when carbohydrate is available.

Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 77) Differentiate between aerobic and anaerobic metabolism and state how many ATP are produced from glucose in each process. Answer: Answers will vary. When oxygen is readily available, cellular respiration may be aerobic. When oxygen is not present, anaerobic pathways are used. Aerobic respiration is far more efficient than anaerobic metabolism at producing ATP. As an example, the aerobic respiration of a single molecule of glucose will result in a net gain of 30 to 32 ATP. In contrast, the anaerobic metabolism of a single molecule of glucose is limited to a net gain of 2 ATP.

78) Why do fats yield more energy per gram than proteins or carbohydrates? Answer: Answers will vary. Glucose carbons exist in a more oxidized state than fat; as a result, fats yield more energy than carbohydrates (9 kcal/g versus 4 kcal/g).

Carnitine helps shuttle free fatty acids in the cytosol into mitochondria. Carnitine is a popular nutritional supplement. In healthy people, cells produce the carnitine needed, and carnitine supplements provide no benefit. In patients hospitalized with acute illnesses, however, carnitine synthesis may be inadequate.

80) Name and briefly describe the 4 stages of aerobic respiration of glucose. Answer: Answers will vary. Stage 1: Glycolysis. In this pathway, glucose (a 6-carbon compound) is oxidized and forms 2 molecules of the 3-carbon compound pyruvate, produces NADH + H+, and generates a net of 2 molecules of ATP. Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol of cells. Stage 2: Transition reaction. The transition reaction converts 2 molecules of the 3-carbon pyruvate from glycolysis into 2 molecules of the 2-carbon molecule acetyl-CoA (Fig. 9-6). The transition reaction also produces NADH + H+ and releases carbon dioxide (CO2) as a waste product. The transition reaction is given this name because these molecules are transitioning from the cytosol into the mitochondria of cells where this reaction occurs. Stage 3: Citric acid cycle. In this pathway, acetyl-CoA enters the citric acid cycle, resulting in the production of NADH + H+, FADH2, and ATP. Carbon dioxide is released as a waste product. Like the transition reaction, the citric acid cycle takes place within the mitochondria of cells. Stage 4: Electron transport chain. The NADH + H+ produced by stages 1 through 3 of cellular respiration and FADH2 produced in stage 3 enter the electron transport chain, where NADH + H+ is oxidized to NAD+ and FADH2 is oxidized to FAD. At the end of the electron transport chain, oxygen is combined with hydrogen ions (H+) and electrons to form water. The electron transport chain takes place within the mitochondria of cells. Most ATP is produced in the electron transport chain; thus, the mitochondria are the cell's major energy-producing organelles.

81) Explain what happens to ketone levels in the body after prolonged starvation. Answer: Answers will vary. When a person is in a state of semistarvation or fasting, the amount of glucose in the body falls, so insulin production falls. This fall in blood insulin then causes fatty acids to flood into the bloodstream and eventually form ketone bodies in the liver. The heart, muscles, and some parts of the kidneys then use ketone bodies for fuel. After a few days of ketosis, the brain also begins to metabolize ketone bodies for energy. Therefore, ketone levels rise during this period of time. Difficulty: 2 Medium Section: 09.03; 09.07 Topic: Metabolism; Lipids; Nutritional biochemistry Learning Objective: 09.04 Illustrate the metabolic pathways involved in ATP production from fats.; 09.08 Summarize how fed and fasted states affect metabolism. Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 82) Explain why individuals with type 1 diabetes can suffer serious complications during ketosis. Answer: Answers will vary. In type 1 diabetes, little to no insulin is produced. This lack of insulin does not allow for normal carbohydrate and fat metabolism. Without sufficient insulin, cells cannot readily utilize glucose, resulting in rapid lipolysis and the excess production of ketone bodies. If the concentration of ketone bodies rises too high in the blood, they spill into the urine, pulling the electrolytes sodium and potassium with them. Eventually, severe ion imbalances occur in the body. The blood also becomes more acidic because 2 of the 3 forms of ketone bodies contain acid groups. The resulting condition, known as diabetic ketoacidosis, can induce coma or death if not treated immediately, such as with insulin, electrolytes, and fluids (see Chapter 5). Ketoacidosis usually occurs only in ketosis caused by uncontrolled type 1 diabetes; in fasting, blood concentrations of ketone bodies typically do not rise high enough to cause the problem.

Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 3-5 minutes 84) Describe one inborn error of metabolism, discussing the metabolic process it affects, the consequences of the disease, and its treatment. Answer: Answers will vary. Inborn errors of metabolism occur when a person inherits a defective gene coding for a specific enzyme from both parents. Both parents are likely to be carriers of the defective gene—that is, they have 1 healthy gene and 1 defective gene for the enzyme in their chromosomes. When each parent donates the defective form of the gene to the offspring, the offspring has 2 defective copies of the gene and therefore little or no activity of the enzyme that the gene normally would produce. If a person has a defective gene, he or she produces a defective protein based on the instructions contained in that defective gene. See "CLINICAL PERSPECTIVE" for possible answers to this question specifically.

85) Using metabolic terms, explain how the MEOS system is different from the alcohol dehydrogenase pathway for metabolism of alcohol. Answer: Answers will vary. The MEOS differs in several ways from the ADH pathway. First, the MEOS uses potential energy (in the form of NADPH + H+, another niacin coenzyme), rather than yielding potential energy (as NADH + H+ in the ADH pathway) in the conversion of alcohol to acetaldehyde. This use of energy may, in part, explain why individuals who consume large amounts of alcohol do not gain as much weight as might be expected from the amount of alcohol-derived energy they consume.

Such a disorder is suspected when otherwise physically well children develop a loss of appetite, vomiting, dehydration, physical weakness, or developmental delays soon after birth. For some of these conditions, infants are screened for the potential to have a specific inborn error of metabolism. • They are very specific, involving only 1 or a few enzymes. These enzymes usually participate in catabolic pathways (in which compounds are degraded). • No cure is possible, but typically the disorders can be controlled. The type of control depends on the inborn error—control might include reducing intake of the substance the individual is unable to metabolize normally, taking pharmacological doses of vitamins, and replacing a compound that cannot be synthesized.

87) Which portion of cellular respiration benefits from the Cori cycle? A) citric acid cycle B) anaerobic glycolysis C) transition reaction D) aerobic glycolysis Answer: B Explanation: Even though muscle cells have mitochondria, during high intensity exercise they rely heavily on anaerobic glycolysis to quickly produce ATP. Anaerobic glycolysis causes lactate accumulations and NAD+ regeneration, both of which allow anaerobic glycolysis to continue in the muscle. The lactate generated is transported from the muscles to the liver, where it is converted to glucose, which can then be returned to the muscles. This process is known as the Cori cycle.

Leptin is a protein made by adipose tissue; it functions as a hormone to reduce food intake, thus decreasing body fat. The obesity gene (ob gene) codes for the synthesis of leptin. When the ob gene is functioning normally, leptin is made and signals satiety. However, when there is a mutation in the ob gene and leptin is not made in sufficient quantities, the desire to eat is increased dramatically, metabolic rate declines (which reduces energy output), and weight gain occurs. Because treating people with leptin doesn't cause significant weight loss, experts suggest that, instead of protecting against obesity, leptin may be more important for signaling low body fat stores and setting in motion adaptations that promote energy conservation, delaying the effects of starvation.

90) Explain how hunger signals change several hours after eating. Answer: Answers will vary. Several hours after eating, concentrations of macronutrients in the blood begin to fall and the body starts using energy from body stores. This change causes feelings of satiety to diminish, and feeding signals begin to dominate again. Endorphins, the body's natural painkillers, and hormones, such as cortisol and ghrelin, stimulate appetite and increase food intake. As you can see, the regulation of food intake and satiety is complex and involves body cells (brain, adipose tissue, stomach, intestines, liver, and other organs), hormones (e.g., cholecystokinin and ghrelin), neurotransmitters (e.g., serotonin), dietary components, and social customs. This system is not perfect, however; your body weight can increase (or decrease) over time if you are not careful to balance your energy intake with your energy output.

91) Explain the difference between hunger and appetite and discuss if a craving for chocolate is a sign of hunger? Answer: Answers will vary. Hunger, the physiological drive to find and eat food, is controlled primarily by internal body mechanisms, such as organs, hormones, hormonelike factors, and the nervous system. Appetite, the psychological drive to eat, is affected mostly by external factors that encourage us to eat, such as social custom, time of day, mood (e.g., feeling sad or happy), memories of pleasant tastes, and the sight of a tempting dessert. Internal and external signals that drive hunger and appetite generally operate simultaneously and lead us to decide whether to reject or eat a food. For example, external signals can cause cephalic phase responses by the body—that is, saliva flows and digestive hormones and insulin are released in response to seeing, smelling, and initially tasting food. These physiological responses encourage eating and prepare the body for the meal. Although hunger and appetite are closely intertwined, they don't always coincide. Almost everyone has encountered a mouthwatering dessert and devoured it, even on a full stomach. Alternately, there are times when we are hungry but have no appetite for the food being served. Where food is ample, appetite—not hunger—mostly triggers eating.

Bloom's: Remember Est Time: 3-5 minutes 93) What are the advantages and disadvantages of skinfold measurements as a technique for assessing body composition? Answer: Answers will vary. Skinfold thickness is a common anthropometric method to estimate total body fat content. Technicians use calipers to measure the fat layer directly under the skin at multiple sites and then enter those values into a mathematical formula (Fig. 10-11). The accuracy of this method is good (3 to 4% error margin) when performed by a trained technician. Advantages are that it can be fairly non-invasive way to measure body fat, but a disadvantage is that an unskilled technician can perform a bad measure.

94) Which body fat measurements are considered the most accurate and why? Answer: Answers will vary. To measure body fat content accurately using typical methods, both body weight and body volume must be measured. Body weight is easy to measure. Of the typical methods used to estimate body volume, underwater weighing is 1 of the most accurate (2 to 3% error margin). This technique determines body volume by measuring body weight when under water and body weight in air and entering these values into a mathematical formula that accounts for the differences in the relative densities of fat tissue and lean tissue (Fig. 10-9). Air displacement, another method for determining body volume, measures the space a person takes up inside a small chamber, such as the BodPod® (Fig. 10-10). This method also has a 2% to 3% error margin and is an accurate alternative to underwater weighing. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is considered the most accurate way to determine body fat (1% to 4% error margin), but the equipment is very expensive and not widely available. The usual whole-body scan requires about 5 to 20 minutes and the dose of radiation is less than a chest X-ray. This method can estimate body fat, fat-free soft tissue, and bone minerals. Thus, obesity, osteoporosis, and other health conditions can be investigated using DXA.

98) Compare and contrast anorexia nervosa and bulimia. In what ways are they similar? In what ways are they different? Answer: Answers will vary. Table 10-8 Typical Characteristics of Those with Eating Disorders Anorexia Nervosa
Bulimia Nervosa
• Rigid dieting, causing dramatic weight • Secretive binge eating; generally not loss, generally to less than 85% of what overeating in front of others would be expected for one's age (or BMI of 17.5 or less) • False body perception—thinking "I'm too fat; " even when extremely underweight; relentless pursuit of control
• Eating when depressed or under stress
• Rituals involving food, excessive exercise, and other aspects of life
• Bingeing on a large amount of food, followed by fasting, laxative or diuretic abuse, self-induced vomiting, or excessive exercise (at least weekly for 3 months)
• Maintenance of rigid control in lifestyle; security found in control and order
• Shame, embarrassment, deceit, and depression; low self-esteem and guilt (especially after a binge)
• Feeling of panic after a small weight gain; intense fear of gaining weight
• Fluctuating weight (+10 lb or 5 kg) resulting from alternate bingeing and fasting
• Feelings of purity, power, and • Loss of control; fear of not being able superiority through maintenance of strict to stop eating discipline and self-denial • Preoccupation with food, its preparation, and observing another person eat
• Perfectionism, "people please?"; food as the only comfort/escape in an otherwise carefully controlled and regulated life

• Helplessness in the presence of food
• Erosion of teeth; swollen glands from vomiting
• Typically lack of menstrual periods after what should be the age of puberty
• Purchase of syrup of ipecac, a compound sold in pharmacies that induces vomiting
• Some binge eat and purge
Binge Eating Disorder • Same characteristics as bulimia nervosa without purging • Eats faster than normal • Eats even when full or not hungry • Feels unpleasantly full after binge eating • Eats alone to hide binge eating from others
People who exhibit only a few of these characteristics may be at risk but probably do not have a disorder. They should, however, reflect on their eating habits and related concerns and take appropriate action, such as seeking a careful evaluation by a physician.

99) Explain how psychological therapy can help in the treatment of a patient with an eating disorder? Answer: Answers will vary. Once the physical problems of anorexic patients are addressed, the treatment focus shifts to the underlying emotional problems of the disorder. To heal, these patients must reject the sense of accomplishment they associate with an emaciated body and begin to accept themselves at a healthy body weight. Establishing a strong relationship with either a therapist or another supportive person is especially important to recovery. A key aspect of psychological treatment is showing affected individuals how to regain control of other facets of their lives and cope with tough situations.

100) Someone you know is suspected of having an eating disorder. What are some of the steps you can take to help this person? Answer: Answers will vary. The following are some ways that caregivers and health professionals can help growing children and adolescents avoid eating disorders: Discourage restrictive dieting, meal skipping, and fasting (except for religious reasons). Encourage children to eat only when hungry. Promote good nutrition and regular physical activity in school and at home. Promote regularly eating meals as a family unit. Provide information about normal changes that occur during puberty. Correct misconceptions about nutrition, healthy body weight, and approaches to weight loss. Carefully phrase any weight-related recommendations and comments. Don't overemphasize numbers on a scale. Instead, primarily promote healthful eating irrespective of body weight. Increase self-acceptance and appreciation of the power and pleasure emerging from one's body. Encourage coaches to be sensitive to weight and body image issues among athletes. Emphasize that thinness is not necessarily associated with better athletic performance. Enhance tolerance for diversity in body weight and shape. Encourage normal expression of emotions. Build respectful environments and supportive relationships.

Bloom's: Evaluate Est Time: 0-1 minute 108) Describe the differences between disordered eating and an eating disorder. Answer: Answers will vary. Disordered eating can be defined as mild and short-term changes in eating patterns that occur in response to a stressful event, an illness, or a desire to modify the diet for health and/or personal appearance reasons. The problem may be no more than a bad habit, a style of eating adapted from friends or family members, or an aspect of preparing for athletic competition. Although disordered eating can lead to changes in body weight and certain nutritional problems, it rarely requires in-depth professional attention. However, in today's world, given the common practice of dieting, skipping meals, eating at odd times, and having hectic jobs and schedules, it may not be obvious when disordered eating stops and an eating disorder begins. Disordered eating can escalate into physiological changes associated with sustained food restriction, binge eating, purging, and fluctuations in weight that interfere with everyday activities. It also involves emotional and cognitive changes that affect how people perceive and experience their bodies, such as feelings of distress or extreme concern about body shape or weight. Eating disorders frequently co-occur with other psychological disorders, such as depression, substance abuse, and anxiety disorders. Eating disorders are not due to a failure of will power or behavior; rather, they are real, treatable medical illnesses that require complex professional intervention that must go beyond nutritional therapy. Without treatment, eating disorders can cause serious physical health complications, including heart conditions and kidney failure, which may even lead to death.

79) What are the basic components of an exercise program? Answer: A good fitness program meets a person's needs—the ideal program for an individual may not be right for another. The first step in designing a fitness program is to define goals. Some may want a program that trains them for athletic competition; others may want to lose weight or just increase their stamina or improve their balance. Different goals mean different fitness programs. To reach goals, fitness program planning should consider the mode, duration, frequency, intensity, and progression of exercise, as well as consistency and variety. Also, a good fitness program must help individuals achieve and maintain fitness.

Bloom's: Remember Est Time: 3-5 minutes 80) Before initiating a new fitness program, what are two important considerations for the beginner? Answer: To stick with an exercise program, experts recommend the following: Start slowly. Vary activities; make exercise fun. Include friends and others.

81) Describe how the intensity of exercise affects glycogen utilization. Answer: Glycogen is broken down to glucose, which can be metabolized by both the anaerobic and aerobic pathways. Liver glycogen is used to maintain blood glucose levels, whereas muscle glycogen supplies the glucose to the working muscle. Glycogen is, in fact, the primary source of glucose for ATP production in muscle cells during fairly intense activities that last for less than about 2 hours. In short events (e.g., less than 30 minutes or so), muscles rely primarily on muscle glycogen stores for carbohydrate fuel. Muscles do not take up much blood glucose during short-term exercise because the action of insulin, which increases glucose uptake by muscles, is blunted by other hormones, such as epinephrine and glucagon during exercise. As exercise time increases, muscle glycogen stores decline and the muscles begin to take up blood glucose to use as an energy source. The depletion of glycogen in the muscles contributes to fatigue, whereas the depletion of glycogen in the liver leads to a fall in blood glucose.

Bloom's: Analyze Est Time: 3-5 minutes 82) Contrast the protein requirements for an endurance athlete to requirements for a strengthtrained athlete. Answer: Although amino acids derived from protein can fuel muscles, their contribution is relatively small compared with that of carbohydrate and fat. As a rough guide, only about 5% of the body's general energy needs, as well as the typical energy needs of exercising muscles, is supplied by amino acid metabolism. However, proteins can contribute to energy needs in endurance exercise, perhaps as much as 15%, especially as glycogen stores in the muscle are exhausted. Endurance exercise is when protein is most likely to make its most significant contribution as a fuel source—but, even then, it provides limited energy, with estimates ranging from 3 to 15%. In contrast, protein is used least in resistance exercise (e.g., weight lifting) Difficulty: 2 Medium Section: 11.05 Topic: Dietary requirements; Proteins; Sports nutrition Learning Objective: 11.05 Apply the principles of sports nutrition to create diet plans for athletes.

83) Why is a high intake of protein for athletes discouraged? Answer: Consuming more protein than the body needs or can use will not lead to greater muscle mass. Eating high carbohydrate, moderate protein foods immediately after a weight training workout can enhance the anabolic effect of the activity. This most likely increases blood concentrations of insulin and growth hormone and contributes to protein synthesis. Remember, it is impossible to increase muscle mass simply by eating protein; putting physical strain on muscle through strength training or other physical activity is needed, as is adequate protein intake to support growth and recovery. Protein intakes above recommendations result in an increased use of amino acids for energy needs and has disadvantages, such as insufficient carbohydrate intake and increased urine production, which may interfere with body hydration. No advantages, such as an increase in muscle protein synthesis, are seen. Despite marketing claims, protein supplements are an expensive and unnecessary part of a fitness plan.

87) How would your diet plan for a football player differ from that of a marathon runner? Answer: Athletes need varying amounts of food energy, depending on their body size, their body composition, and the type of training or competition. A petite gymnast may need only 1800 kcal/day to sustain normal daily activities without losing body weight; a tall, muscular swimmer may need 4000 kcal/day. If an athlete experiences daily fatigue and/or weight loss, the first consideration should be whether that person is consuming enough food. Up to 6 meals per day may be needed, including 1 before each workout. Monitoring body weight is an easy way to assess the adequacy of calorie intake. Athletes should strive to maintain weight during competition and training. Generally, if athletes are losing weight, then energy intake is inadequate; however, if athletes are gaining weight, then energy intake is too high. If an athlete needs to lose weight, his or her food intake should be lowered by 200 to 500 kcal per day. This slight reduction will allow the athlete to continue to train and compete yet will create a calorie deficit so that weight loss can be achieved. Reducing fat intake is the best way to cut calories and not affect performance. On the other hand, if an athlete needs to gain weight, increasing food intake by 500 to 700 kcal/ day will eventually achieve that goal. The extra calories should come from a healthy balance of carbohydrate, protein, and fat; exercise needs to be maintained to make sure this gain is mostly in the form of lean muscle mass. In general, both athletes should focus on clean unprocessed foods. The calorie levels would depend on weight goals and current status. The football player (focusing on strength), would require a high calorie load, with focus on 1-1.7g/kg protein, while the marathoner would focus on 1.7g/kg protein with a very high carbohydrate intake as well.

88) How would you convince a football coach that a sports drink would be better than water for his high school athletes during two-a-day practices? Answer: When exercise extends beyond 1 hour, sports drinks can offer several advantages over water alone—even more so in hot weather (Fig. 11-14): Carbohydrates in sports drinks supply glucose to muscles as they become depleted of glycogen, thus enhancing performance. Electrolytes in sports drinks help maintain blood volume, enhance the absorption of water and carbohydrates from the intestines, and stimulate thirst.

86) List 3 differences between fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins. Answer: Fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed along with dietary fat. Thus, adequate absorption of fat-soluble vitamins depends on efficient use of bile and pancreatic lipase in the small intestine to digest dietary fat and adequate intestinal absorption (Fig. 12-1). Under optimal conditions, about 40% to 90% of the fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed when they're consumed in recommended amounts. In contrast, absorption of B-vitamins and vitamin C typically ranges from 90% to 100% and occurs in the small intestine independent of dietary fat. In contrast to the fat-soluble vitamins, water-soluble vitamins are delivered directly to the bloodstream and distributed throughout the body. With the exception of vitamin K, fat-soluble vitamins are not readily excreted from the body. Instead, they are often stored in the liver and/or adipose tissue. In contrast, most water-soluble vitamins are excreted from the body quite rapidly, resulting in limited stores. Although the toxic effects of an excessive intake of any vitamin is theoretically possible, toxicity from the fat-soluble vitamins A and D is the most likely to occur.

However, because the USP labeling of dietary supplements is voluntary, many manufacturers use their own standards for manufacturing and quality control.

Bloom's: Remember Est Time: 3-5 minutes 90) Why do some scientists suggest that the DRI and UL for vitamin D be increased? Answer: To support the diverse functions of vitamin D, some researchers estimate that the body requires approximately 3000 to 4000 IU (75–100 μg) of vitamin D daily to maintain optimal blood levels of 25–OH vitamin D3. However, typical inputs from UV exposure (2000 IU), food sources (150–200 IU), and dietary supplements (200 IU) often provide 2400 IU daily or less for the average individual. Thus, an oral intake of approximately 1000 to 4000 IU daily might be necessary to maintain optimal vitamin D status in people who have limited sun exposure.

Answer: Excessive intakes of vitamin A and vitamin E negatively affect the actions of vitamin K. Vitamin A is thought to interfere with the absorption of vitamin K from the small intestine, whereas large doses of vitamin E can lead to a decrease in vitamin K–dependent clotting factors and increased bleeding tendency. In either case, megadose supplements of these vitamins increase the risk of vitamin K deficiency and bleeding, as noted in earlier discussions of the Upper Levels of the vitamins.

32) A diet that provides 75 g protein per day can contribute ________ mg niacin from tryptophan. A) 25 B) 7.5 C) 12.5 D) <5 Answer: C Explanation: Protein is about 1% tryptophan, so 1 g of protein provides 10 mg of tryptophan. The overall contribution of dietary protein to niacin can be roughly estimated as shown in the following example of a diet containing 90 g of protein. 1 g protein yields 10 mg tryptophan 60 mg tryptophan yields 1 mg niacin 90 g protein × 10 mg tryptophan/g protein = 900 mg tryptophan 900 mg tryptophan = 60 mg tryptophan/mg niacin = 15 mg niacin A "shortcut" for this calculation is to divide protein intake (in grams) by 6. In the previous example, 90 g protein/6 yields 15 mg niacin. 75 g protein × 10 mg tryptophan/g protein = 750 mg tryptophan 750 mg tryptophan / 60 mg tryptophan/mg niacin = 12.5 mg niacin Difficulty: 3 Hard Section: 13.04 Topic: Vitamins; Food sources; Proteins Learning Objective: 13.02 List important food sources for each water-soluble vitamin.

115) Describe how vitamin C, iron, and copper interact to allow metalloenzyme function to proceed. Answer: As an electron donor, vitamin C has a cofactor role for several metalloenzymes and has antioxidant defense functions. Metalloenzymes contain metals, such as iron, copper, or zinc (usually as an ion), as a part of their structures. When a metalloenzyme catalyzes a reaction, the metal ion becomes oxidized. For example, reduced iron (ferrous, Fe2+) is converted to its oxidized form (ferric, Fe3+) during enzymatic activity. Ascorbic acid, by donating an electron to the oxidized iron, keeps the iron in its reduced ferrous form. This, in turn, allows enzymatic action to continue.

109) Compare and contrast the characteristics of a high-sodium diet to that of a high-potassium diet. Answer: Diets high in potassium and low in sodium offer the most protection against high blood pressure. Such diets are consistent with the DASH Diet and recommendations from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015–2020. Many individuals can approximate the AI for potassium (4700 mg) by adding an additional 1500 mg of potassium to their daily diets. One banana, 1/2 cup of beans, and 1 sweet or white baked potato easily provide this added potassium. On the other hand, low potassium and high sodium diets, which many people eat today, are more likely to result in high blood pressure. Difficulty: 3 Hard Section: 14.03; 14.04 Topic: Minerals; Dietary requirements Learning Objective: 14.05 Discuss the problems with low and high intakes of major minerals and how to avoid inadequate or excessive intakes. Bloom's: Analyze Est Time: 1-3 minutes 110) Describe two of the physiologic processes that contribute to primary hypertension. Answer: Primary hypertension develops over a period of years in response to changes in the arteries, kidneys, and sodium/ potassium balance. As we age, our arteries tend to narrow and become more rigid through a process called arteriosclerosis. Additionally, endothelial cells that line the arteries often release vasoconstrictors, substances that cause the arteries to constrict, in response to arterial damage, poor blood flow, stress, and other factors. Although these events alone can result in increased blood pressure, their additive effects on kidney function increase arterial pressure. In response to this, the kidney releases more renin, causing the formation of additional angiotensin II enzyme (see Fig. 14-9). Angiotensin II is a powerful vasoconstrictor that triggers the kidney's retention of sodium and water. Diets high in sodium and low in potassium worsen these physiological changes. Over time, the result is elevation of blood pressure.

Bloom's: Apply Est Time: 1-3 minutes 112) Describe the nutritional characteristics of the DASH diet. Which food groups are emphasized? Answer: The DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) Diet was designed to test the effect of a diet low in saturated fat, total fat, and cholesterol and high in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products on blood pressure. The diet is rich in magnesium, potassium, calcium, protein, and fiber (see Table 14-9). In fact, the amounts of magnesium, potassium, calcium, and fiber greatly exceed typical intakes, but without using nutritional supplements.

113) Explain how the kidneys maintain fluid balance. Answer: In response to increased osmotic pressure from inadequate water intake, the pituitary gland releases antidiuretic hormone (ADH). ADH signals the kidneys to retain water, thus reducing urine output (Fig. 14-8). At the same time, falling blood pressure initiates another sequence of events—highly sensitive pressure receptors in the kidneys trigger the release of the enzyme renin (Fig. 14-9). Renin, in turn, activates angiotensinogen (a circulating blood protein made in the liver), forming angiotensin I. In the lungs, angiotensin I is converted to angiotensin II, which, among other effects, causes the constriction of blood vessels and release of the hormone aldosterone by the adrenal glands. Aldosterone signals the kidneys to retain more sodium and chloride, and therefore more water. (Remember, water always follows electrolytes.) Thus, low blood pressure, through this roundabout sequence, causes the kidneys to increase water conservation in the body. There is, however, a limit to how concentrated urine can become. Eventually, if sufficient fluid is not consumed, dehydration and ill effects ensue. When water intake exceeds that needed to excrete waste via the urine and replace insensible losses, the kidneys are able to decrease their reabsorption of water. With this, urine volume increases and the urine becomes more dilute. In rare cases, urinary excretion cannot match high water intake, and water intoxication occurs.

80) How does vitamin C increase the absorption of iron? Answer: Vitamin C provides an electron to Fe3+ (ferric iron) to yield Fe2+ (ferrous iron), which then forms a soluble complex with vitamin C. Ferrous iron is better absorbed than ferric iron because it more readily crosses the mucosal layer of the small intestine and reaches the brush border of the intestinal absorptive cells. Heme iron does not need to undergo this reduction reaction because the iron in heme is already in the more soluble ferrous form.

Bloom's: Understand Est Time: 1-3 minutes 85) Describe the symptoms of iodine deficiency. Answer: When iodine availability decreases and plasma levels of T4 hormone drop, the pituitary gland secretes thyroid-stimulating hormone. In response to increased TSH levels, the thyroid gland enlarges in an attempt to increase its efficiency at trapping iodine. The characteristic enlargement of the thyroid gland that occurs is called a goiter. This early adaptive response allows the thyroid gland to temporarily maintain thyroid hormone synthesis. Although a goiter is a painless condition, it can cause pressure on the esophagus and trachea and impair their function. If the underlying iodine deficiency is not corrected, decreased T4 synthesis, slowed metabolism, and more serious complications can develop. Iodine deficiency is of particular concern during pregnancy because of the adverse effects it can have on the developing offspring. These include congenital abnormalities, low birth weight, neurological disorders, impaired mental function, poor physical development, and death. The resulting restriction of brain development and growth, called cretinism (Fig. 15-15), is characterized by severe mental retardation, loss of hearing and speech abilities, short stature, and muscle spasticity.

86) What trace mineral toxicity causes tooth mottling and how? Answer: In the early 1930s, it was observed that individuals living in the southwestern U.S., where the water naturally contained high concentrations of fluoride, had fewer dental caries (cavities). Many people in these areas also had small spots on their teeth (known as mottling or fluorosis) due to excess fluoride (Fig. 15-19). Although discolored, the mottled teeth were virtually free of dental caries. This discovery led to research studies confirming this mineral's ability to reduce cavities and the start of controlled water fluoridation in parts of the U.S .

88) Explain why a deficiency of selenium can impair iodine metabolism. Answer: Iodine is an essential component of the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Most of the circulating thyroid hormone in the body is in the form of T4. Within body cells, T4 loses an iodine molecule and is converted to T3, the active form of the hormone. The enzymes involved in this conversion (called deiodinase enzymes) require the trace mineral selenium. Thus, a selenium deficiency can limit the activity of deiodinase enzymes, resulting in decreased T3 levels.

Bloom's: Analyze Est Time: 1-3 minutes 89) Why are children at risk of iron toxicity? Answer: Young children also are at risk because they are growing fast and typically have low intakes of iron-rich meat and high intakes of iron-poor cow's milk. One in 4 children in the U.S. ages 12 to 23 months has intakes below the RDA, increasing the risk of iron deficiency. In the U.S., iron-fortified formulas and cereals provided by the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) to children from limited-resource families who are at nutritional risk have been instrumental in decreasing rates of iron deficiency anemia. However, in less developed countries, many young children are iron deficient because iron supplementation programs frequently are not available.

90) List 2 proteins that transport oxygen in the body and describe which mineral is essential for these proteins to function. Answer: Iron is an essential part of 2 proteins, hemoglobin and myoglobin, that are involved in the transport and metabolism of oxygen. Hemoglobin, which is found in erythrocytes (red blood cells), is composed of 4 iron-containing heme compounds that each bind 1 molecule of oxygen (Fig. 15-3). As a component of hemoglobin, iron carries oxygen in the blood from the lungs to all tissues of the body. It also transports carbon dioxide back to the lungs for expiration. Because the body produces approximately 200 billion erythrocytes each day, much of the body's iron is contained in hemoglobin. If the oxygen-carrying capacity of erythrocytes declines, the kidneys produce the hormone erythropoietin, which stimulates the bone marrow to produce more red blood cells (Fig. 15-4). This, in turn, increases the body's need for iron to support hemoglobin production. Iron has a similar oxygen-carrying role in myoglobin, a protein in muscle cells.

Bloom's: Remember Est Time: 1-3 minutes 91) Describe how fluoride works to prevent dental caries. Answer: Fluoride works in several ways to prevent caries. During the development of teeth and bones, fluoride forms hydroxyfluorapatite crystals. These crystals provide greater resistance (than typical hydroxyapatite crystals) to bacteria and acids in the mouth that can erode tooth enamel. Fluoride in the blood contributes to fluoride in the saliva, which promotes the remineralization of enamel lesions and reduces the net loss of minerals from tooth enamel.

92) What population areas are at increased risk of iodine deficiency? Answer: Descriptions of goiter have been documented for many centuries in China and other parts of the world. Prior to World War I, goiter was very common in the Great Lakes region of the U.S., where the soil and lake waters are very low in iodine. Cretinism also was common in parts of the U.S. Today, approximately one-third of the world's population remains at risk of iodine deficiency. Many countries in the world still have iodine-deficient areas (Fig. 15-16). A higher incidence of iodine deficiency disorders occurs in areas of Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. The discovery in the early 1920s, by scientists in the U.S. and Switzerland, that iodine can prevent the development of goiter resulted in the fortification of table salt in the U.S. and many other countries. Using a small amount of iodized salt has eradicated endemic iodine deficiency in these areas. Unfortunately, approximately 30% of households worldwide still do not have access to iodized salt.

94) What suggestions would you provide to a client to decrease cancer risk? Answer: Many experts believe that environmental factors, such as exposure to radiation, chemicals, and air and water pollutants; smoking; lack of physical activity; obesity; and diet play a greater role in cancer initiation and development. For the U.S., estimates are that one-fourth to one-third of cancers are due to poor diet, physical inactivity, overweight, and obesity and another one-third are caused by tobacco use. The menu in Table 15-7 provides an example of a dietary plan to decrease cancer risk. Various dietary factors have been associated with cancer. Evidence supports overall benefits of foods, not dietary supplements. The following list provides a summary of factors likely related to risk of cancer. Much of the evidence is based on epidemiological Fruits and vegetables. Diets low in fruits and vegetables (rich sources of phytochemicals and antioxidant nutrients, such as selenium, vitamin C, and vitamin E) have been associated with an increased incidence of certain cancers. Fruit and vegetable intake also may contribute to a decreased risk for some cancers by replacing energy dense foods and helping maintain a healthy weight. • Excessive energy intake and obesity. Excessive energy intake and obesity have been associated with an increased risk of breast, colorectal, and other cancers. This relationship may occur because obesity increases the production of hormones such as estrogen and insulin. Additionally, cancer cells may multiply more readily when excess energy is available to support their growth. Obesity also may contribute to cancer recurrence and reduce survival rates. • Meat. High intakes of meats, especially red meat and grilled meat, are associated with an increased risk of colorectal, kidney, pancreatic, and stomach cancers. The saturated fat content of red meat, and the production of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., benzopyrene) when meats are charbroiled, may increase the risk of cancers. Nitrosamine compounds found in processed meats such as sausage, hot dogs, and bacon also may increase cancer risk. *Fried foods. In addition to increasing calories, fried foods also contain acrylamide, which can increase cancer risk. Acrylamide is not naturally found in these foods but is produced when potatoes and other starches are fried at high temperatures. • Whole grains and fiber. Increased intake of dietary fiber from whole grains is associated with a decreased risk of developing colorectal cancer. Diets containing more whole grains and fewer refined grains improve weight control. • Alcohol. Excess alcohol intake increases the risk of cancers of the mouth, throat, esophagus, breast, and colon. Alcohol abuse also severely damages the liver and other tissues in the body, which may predispose them to cancer development. • Vitamin D and calcium. Evidence is inconsistent on whether adequate intakes of calcium and vitamin D decrease the risk of colorectal cancer. Calcium may bind free fatty acids and bile acids in the colon and prevent them from interacting with potential cancer cells. Vitamin D may inhibit the progression of cancer growth from malignant polyps in the colon. More research is needed. Difficulty: 3 Hard 34 Copyright 2019 © McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved.

Bloom's: Apply Est Time: 1-3 minutes 95) What dietary suggestions would you provide to a vegan to prevent iron deficiency? Answer: Polyphenols, such as the tannins found in tea, and related substances in coffee are known to reduce nonheme iron absorption. Therefore, individuals trying to rebuild iron stores are advised to reduce coffee and tea consumption, particularly at mealtimes. Excessive intakes of other minerals, such as zinc, manganese, and calcium, may interfere with nonheme iron absorption. Because of these potential mineral-mineral interactions, individuals with high iron needs should avoid taking iron supplements with foods or supplements containing significant amounts of these minerals. Vitamin C, or other organic acids, in the diet also increases nonheme iron absorption. Vitamin C provides an electron to Fe3+ (ferric iron) to yield Fe2+ (ferrous iron), which then forms a soluble complex with vitamin C. Ferrous iron is better absorbed than ferric iron because it more readily crosses the mucosal layer of the small intestine and reaches the brush border of the intestinal absorptive cells.

96) Should individuals with a family history of cancer take selenium supplements? Explain your answer. Answer: Diets low in fruits and vegetables (rich sources of phytochemicals and antioxidant nutrients, such as selenium, vitamin C, and vitamin E) have been associated with an increased incidence of certain cancers. Selenium acts as a cofactor for glutathione peroxidase, which prevents the oxidative destruction of cell membranes by hydrogen peroxide and free radicals. Selenium also aids in the conversion of the thyroid hormone T4 to T3. The selenium content of the soil in an area greatly affects the amount of selenium in the foods from that area. In general meat, eggs, seafood, grains, and seeds are the best sources of selenium. In areas where the soil lacks selenium, deficiencies are more prevalent. Selenium deficiency increases the risk of Keshan disease and possibly certain cancers. Because selenium has a narrower range of safety for intake than most other trace minerals, selenium supplementation can cause symptoms of toxicity at lower levels of intake. However, research evidence does not suggest selenium, alone, PREVENTS cancer. Therefore, in advising an individual about supplements, it is important to understand that selenium supplements alone will not likely prevent cancer. An individual should assess his/her overall diet and determine needs for supplementation if selenium is deficient.

Answer: FALSE Explanation: Untreated gestational diabetes can severely deplete fetal iron stores. In addition, uncontrolled diabetes can cause the fetus to grow quite large. The oversupply of glucose from maternal circulation signals the fetus to increase insulin production, which causes fetal tissues to readily use glucose for growth. Another threat is that the infant may have low blood glucose at birth because of the tendency to produce extra insulin, which began during gestation. Other concerns are the potential for preterm delivery and increased risk of birth trauma and malformations.

89) Design an appropriate exercise program for a healthy, pregnant female. Explain the benefits of this program and why this program is associated with the least possible risks. Answer: A low or moderate intensity exercise program can offer physical and psychological benefits to a woman experiencing a normal, healthy pregnancy. Benefits include improved cardiovascular function, an easier and less complicated labor, and an improved attitude and mental state. Exercise also can help prevent or treat gestational diabetes. Infants born to women who exercise tend to be leaner and more neurologically mature than babies born to nonexercisers. Women with high risk pregnancies, such as those experiencing premature labor contractions, may need to restrict their physical activity. Exercise moderately for about 30 minutes daily on most days of the week. • Drink plenty of liquids to maintain normal fluid and electrolyte balance and avoid dehydration. • Keep heart rate below 140 beats per minute to maintain adequate blood (and oxygen) flow to the fetus. • Include a cool-down period at the end of exercise sessions so that heart rate can gradually return to normal. After about the 4th month, avoid exercises that are done while lying down because the enlarged uterus compresses blood vessels and cuts down blood flow to the fetus. • Avoid deep flexing (e.g., deep knee bends), joint extensions (e.g., leg stretches), and activities that jar the joints (e.g., jumping) because connective tissue that has become more elastic to facilitate normal childbirth can be damaged if overstressed in exercise. • Prevent increases in body temperature by not exercising in hot, humid weather or engaging in strenuous activities for more than 15 minutes. High body temperatures can damage enzymes that regulate fetal development. • Stop exercising immediately if discomfort occurs—aches and pains are a warning that something may be wrong. • Avoid strenuous or endurance activities because they can cause lower than normal birth weights. • Avoid activities that could cause abdominal trauma (e.g., horseback riding, martial arts), that involve rapid shifts in balance or body position that may cause accidental falls (e.g., basketball, skiing, hockey), or that compress the uterus (e.g., scuba diving). • Avoid becoming overly tired.

Bloom's: Apply Est Time: 0-1 minute 92) Bribing children to eat a new food is a good way to help them discover new foods. Answer: FALSE Explanation: Bribing children with food, like dessert, also teaches them that food is an appropriate reward. At the other end of the spectrum lie parents who are so excessively concerned that their children will become obese that they restrict their children's food intake. In some cases, caregivers restrict food intake so severely that the children become underweight and fail to thrive. Pressuring a child to eat more or less than is desired tells the child not to trust his or her own hunger and satiety signals—this can lead to a lifetime battle with weight problems.

93) To help children keep their weight under control, they should receive no more than 3 meals daily. Answer: FALSE Explanation: Children have small stomachs. Offering them 6 or so small meals succeeds better than limiting them to 3 meals each day. Sticking to 3 meals a day offers no special nutritional advantages; it's just a social custom. When we eat isn't nearly as important as what we eat. Frequent meals and snacks help children meet their nutrient and calorie needs, as well as keep their blood glucose levels high enough to support the activity of their rapidly developing brain and nervous system.

108) List suggested recommendations for lifestyle modifications for an obese 10-year-old child. Answer: Answers will vary. The 1st step is to assess how much physical activity he or she engages in. If a child spends much free time in sedentary activities, more physical activities should be encouraged. Both the U.S. government and health professionals recommend 60 minutes or more of moderate to intense physical activity per day for children and adolescents. An overall active lifestyle will help children not only attain a healthy body weight but also keep a healthy body weight later in life and reduce the risk of obesity-related diseases. An increase in physical activity won't just happen; parents and other caregivers need to plan for it. Two good ideas are getting the family together for a brisk walk after dinner and finding an after-school sport the child enjoys. Foods should include a focus on vegetables, fruits, lean proteins, and whole grains, with less refined sugars and processed foods. Obese children often need to find a new way to relate to foods, especially snack foods. An important family rule might be that children are allowed to eat only while sitting at the dining table or in the kitchen. This rule can stop mindless snacking in front of the television and make all family members more conscious of when they are eating. It also might be helpful to put portions of snack foods on plates rather than to allow unlimited amounts of snacks, as often happens when children eat directly from a full box of crackers or cookies. Obese children also need support, admiration, and encouragement to bring their weight under control. A child's self-esteem is extremely fragile. Obesity itself often affects the child's psyche and mental outlook (e.g., depression). Humiliation doesn't work; it only makes the child feel worse. Resorting to a weight loss diet is usually not necessary. Children have an advantage over adults in dealing with obesity; their bodies can use stored energy for growth. Thus, if weight gain can be moderated, their normal increases in height can help bring weight under control.

109) Describe why young children are at a higher risk for developing iron deficiency anemia. What modifications can be made to help decrease their risk? Answer: Answers will vary. Children 1 to 2 years old are particularly vulnerable to iron deficiency anemia because their diets often are dominated by milk, a low-iron food, and most are no longer receiving iron-fortified formula. In addition, they typically do not like meat or have difficulty chewing it. In some cases, intestinal parasites contribute to iron deficiency. Iron-fortified cereal and easily chewed meats (e.g., ground beef) can help children boost iron intake; serving iron-rich food with vitamin C-rich food increases the absorption of this mineral. Difficulty: 3 Hard Section: 17.06 Topic: Childhood and adolescence; Dietary requirements; Deficiency and toxicity diseases Learning Objective: 17.07 Plan nutritious diets for infants, children, and adolescents using MyPlate.; 17.08 Describe the nutrition-related problems that may occur during the growing years and their impact on future health. Bloom's: Analyze Est Time: 3-5 minutes 110) Explain why infants need more calories per unit of body weight than adults. Answer: Answers will vary. All of the changes that occur during the growing years influence energy and nutrient intakes and needs, but growth rate has the greatest effect. The faster the growth rate, the greater the nutrient and calorie needs per pound of body weight. Thus, the greatest needs, pound for pound, occur during infancy, when growth is at its peak velocity. Although calorie and nutrient needs per pound of body weight steadily decline after infancy, the total quantity of calories and nutrients needed rises throughout childhood because the body grows larger.

With the exception of a vitamin K supplement for newborns, an iron supplement for breastfed infants, a vitamin B-12 supplement for breastfed infants of vegan mothers, a vitamin D supplement for some infants, and a fluoride supplement for infants, children, and teens with an unfluoridated water supply, routine nutrient supplementation is not needed by healthy children and teens. However, supplements may be recommended for children and teens who are poor eaters, vegans, pregnant, on programs to manage obesity, and/or deprived, neglected, or abused. The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests that these children and teens may benefit from a children's multivitamin and mineral supplement not exceeding 100% of the RDA or Adequate Intakes. Still, supplements are not a substitute for a healthy diet.
