3. A diet which contains different
types of food possesing the
nutrients-
Carbohydrate,protein,fats,vitamin
s,minerals and water –in a
proportion to meet the requirement
of the body.

4. Balanced diet achieved by eating variety
of food.
There is no single food with correct
amount of all essential nutrients.
Eating a balanced diet requires a certain
amount of knowledge and planning.

5. • The basic composition of balanced diet
is highly variable as it differs from
country to country depending on the
availability of food.
• Social &cultural habits, economic status,
age,sex &physical activity of the
individual largely influence the in take of
diet

6. • Nutrion Expert Group from ICMR has
recommended the composition of
balanced diet for Indian.
• They recommended
cereals(rice,wheat,jowar)
pulses,vegetables, roots & tubers,
fruits,milk&milk products,fats &oils
,sugar & ground nuts.
• Additional intake of Meats,fish&egg for
non vegetarian.for vegetarian milk
&pulses. 6
7. body’s organs and tissues need proper
nutrition to work effectively.
Without good nutrition, body is more
prone to disease, infection, fatigue, and
poor performance.
Children with a poor diet run the risk of
growth and developmental problems. Bad
eating habits can continue for the rest of
their lives.

8. The USDA reports that four of the top 10
leading causes of death in the United States
are directly influenced by diet. These are:
heart disease
cancer
stroke
diabetes

diagram representing the optimal
number of servings to be eaten each day
from each of the basic food groups.

total energy).
2) brain and other parts of CNS are
depend glucose for energy.
3) Required for the oxidation of fat.

16. RDA:56g
FUNCTION
These are the fundamental basis of cell
structure & function.
Maintains osmotic pressure & have role in
clotting of blood,muscle contraction .
All the enzymes,several
hormones,immunoglobulins are proteins.
Used as energy sources.
PROTEIN
16
19. Severe protein calorie malnutrition characterized
by energy deficiency and emaciation
Causes stunted growth and wasting of muscles
and tissue
Develop between the age of 6 months & 1 years
in children who weaned from breast feeding/who
suffer from weakening conditions like chronic
diarrhea.
19
20. Severe growth retardation.
Loss of subcutaneous fat.
Severe muscle wasting.
Child looks thin and limbs
Wrinkled skin.
Bony prominence.
Frequent watery diarrhea & acid stools.
Temperature is abnormal.
Edema absent.
20
21. Also called wet-protein energy malnutrition.
Form of PEM characterized by protein
deficiency.
Refers to an insufficient protein consumption
but with sufficient calorie intake.
Usually appear in the age of 12 months when
breast feeding is discontinued.
21
22. Change in skin pigment.
Diarrhea.
Decreased muscle mass.
Swelling(edema).
Fatigue.
Hair changes
Lethargy.
Increased & more severe infection due to
damaged immune system.
Failure to gain weight & grow.
22
24. 1. Hospital Management:
These conditions should be corrected –
hypothermia, hypoglycemia, infections,
dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, anemia &
other vitamin & mineral deficiency.
2. Dietary Management:
Diet from staple foods– inexpensive, easily
digestible, evenly distributed & increased
number of feedings.
3. Rehabilitation:
Nutritional training for mothers- feeding
their children back to health & use local food. 24
25. Promotion of breast feeding.
Development of low cost weaning.
Nutritional education.
Family planning.
Immunization.
Early diagnosis & treatment.
25
26. • The complex carbohydrate are not digested
by the human enzymes are collectively refers
to as dietary fibers
• soluble fiber-mostly found in fruits & legumes
insoluble fiber- vegetables &grains
FIBER
26
28. Digestion &absorption of protein
Intestinal absorption of minerals(Ca,P,Mg)
Flatulence and discomfert
Drinking plenty of water reduces the
adverse effects
28
30. • Constipation
• High blood pressure
• Diabetes
• Cardiovascular diseases
• Obesity
• Cancer
30
31. RDA:70g
FUNCTION
• It provide 15-50% total energy.
• concentrated fuel sorce of body.
• Constituents of membrane structure&
regulate membrane permeability.
• Source of fat soluble vitamins.
• As cellular metabolic regulators.
• As insulating material protect internal organs.
FAT
31
33. Chemical compounds required in very small
quantities which are essential for normal
and health metabolism.
According to the solubility
1. water soluble
2. fat soluble
VITAMINS
33
34. VITAMINS
Fat-soluble Watersoluble
Vitamin A Non B- Complex B-Complex
Vitamin D Vitamin C Thiamine (B1)
Vitamin E Riboflavin(B2)
Vitamin K Niacin (B3)
Pantothenic acid(B5)
Pyridoxine(B6)
Biotin(B7)
Folic acid (B9)
Vitamin B12
34
35. Minerals are inorganic substances needed in
small amounts by all cells for normal
functioning
MINERAL
35
36. function
• Constituents of bone&teeth
• Muscle contraction
• Nerve transmission
Deficiency:Rickets,Osteomalacia
RDA(0.8-1g/d)
Sources(Milk,&products,Leafy vegetables)
36
37. Function
Acid-base balance
Osmotic pressure
nerve & muscle function
Deficiency
Hyponatremia
RDA(5-10g/d)

41. Patients with IDD most commonly present
with goiter.
patients may complaints of compressive
symptoms, such as
hoarseness,
shortness of breath,
cough,
dysphagia.
41
42. Cretinism is the most extreme manifestation
of IDD.
Cretinism can be divided into neurologic and
myxedematous subtypes.
Both conditions can be prevented by adequate
maternal and childhood iodine intake.
42
43. Correction of an individual's iodine deficiency
should be instituted at a level recommended by
the World Health Organization (WHO).
In a nonpregnant adult, 150 mcg/day is sufficient
for normal thyroid function.
Consultation with an endocrinologist should be
considered when the etiology of thyroid
abnormalities is unclear.
Thyroidectomy indicated for patients with
compressive symptoms of a large goiter.
43
44. At a population level, iodine deficiency
disorder (IDD) can be prevented by the
iodization of food products or the water
supply.
In practice, this is usually achieved by
iodization of salt.
An alternative in some developing
countries has been the periodic injection
of iodized oil supplements
44
45. Function.
Constituent of enzyme eg:cytochrome C
oxidase,catalase,tyrosinase in iron transport.
Deficiency.
Anemia.
Menkas disease.
RDA(2-3mg/d).
Sources:organ meat,cereals,leafy vegetables.
45
47. • Provision of moist environmrnt
• Aqueous condition for metabolism
• Moistening of food for swallowing
• Regulation of body temperature
• Being a major constituent of blood
and tissue fluid it transport
substances
