Interpreting The Data

Carbohydrates - Made up of the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. - Main source of energy. - 2 types of carbohydrates: simple carbohydrates : sugar compels carbohydrates : starch, fibre - Excess carbohydrates are stored as fats in our body.

Proteins
- Made up of the elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and

nitrogen. - Our body mainly made up of protein. - Make up of a large number of subunits called amino acids. - Main substance needed for the growth of new cell and repair the damage or injured tissues. - Used to make up cells, tissue, and organs. - During extreme saturation, protein becomes the source of energy.

Fat
- Made out of the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. - Consists of smaller units of fatty acids combined with glycerol. - Vegetables facts: liquid form (oil). - Animals facts: solid form. - Contains twice as much energy as carbohydrate. - Stored under the skin or around organs in our body.

Vitamins
- Organic compound those are vital for healthy growth. - Required in small quantities. - Two kinds of vitamins :-

 fat-soluble (A, D, E and K) water-soluble (B and C) - Does not provide any energy. - Inefficient intake of vitamins will cause vitamins deficiency. - If someone does have enough of particular vitamins, they suffer from a deficiency disease. Vitami ns A Source
carrot, liver, fish, liver oil and green vegetable egg, milk, meat, yeast and cereals

Function
For night vision Healthy Skin

Deficiency
Night blindness Skin infections Beriberi Anaemia

C D

fresh fruits and vegetable made by our body in sun light (sun light), also fund in milk, eggs, fish liver oil vegetable oil, whole grains, nuts and wheat germ made in human intestines, also, found in eggyork and green vegetable

Releases energy from carbohydrates Healthy nervous system Healthy skin Formation of red blood cells Healing of wounds Resistance to disease

Scurvy (bleeding gums) Rickets (soft bones and dental decay)

Strong bones and teeth

May be needed for reproduction Helps to fight against disease Clothing of blood

Sterility

Prolonged bleeding

Minerals
- Inorganic substances needed by our body for healthy growth and. development. - Like vitamins : vital for good health required in small quantities does not provide any energy - Excess minerals are excreted through sweet and urine. - Human obtain there minerals through food and drinks. - Lack of minerals will lead to minerals deficiency. Minerals Calcium Source
Cheese, milk, egg, green vegetable Table salt, Cheese, meat Meat, egg, green vegetable Seafood, iodised salts Egg, meat, milk, cheese, vegetables Meat, nuts, bananas

Function
Strong bones and teeth Blood clotting Muscle and nerve activities Maintain body fluid Proper functioning of nerve Needed to form haemoglobin in red blood cells Needed to make hormones of the thyroid gland Strong bones and teeth Muscle contraction Stores energy Maintain body fluid Proper functioning of nerves

Deficiency disease
Rickets Osteoporosis Prolonged Muscle cramps Muscle cramps

Sodium Iron Iodine

Anemia Goitre (swelling of the thyroid gland in the neck) Rickets Weakness Weak muscles Paralysis

Phosphor us Potassiu m

Water
- About 70% of our body is made up of water. - Main component for our blood and body fluid. - Function of water : Water helps to dissolve and transport digested foods, gases, and horunones. Solvent for many chemical. Forming a medium for chemical reactions. Helps to regulate our body temperature. Waste substance such as salt and urea are passed from our body in water. - Not provide any energy at all.

Fibre (Roughage) - Made up from cellulose from plant cell wall. - Fruits and vegetable are the main source of fibre. - Cannot be digested by our body. - Fibre absorbs water easily so that our faeces remain soft and can pass from our body easily.

- Fibre can prevent constipation.

Conclusion
Food can be classified into seven main classes; Carbohydrate Protein Fats Mineral salts Vitamins Dietary fiber (roughage)

Reflection
Men need foods to get nutrient for life. When a man didnt get enough of carbohydrates a few days, protein and fat will becomes the main of energy. Men cannot life without energy (nutrient).
