What is Healthy Eating?
Balance
• Choose a mix of:
• Protein
• Carbohydrates
• Fats
Variety
• Choose foods from each major food group; make sure you eat fruits and vegetables as well as whole grains and beans and other legumes
Moderation
• Watch your portion sizes; don’t deny yourself, yet aim to be sensible
Essential Nutrients
• Macronutrients
• Water
• Carbohydrates
• Protein
• Fat
• Micronutrients
• Vitamins
• Minerals
All these nutrients are important for health.
Water
Water!!!
How much water should you drink?
Women (AI)
• Adequate Intake = about 9 cups/day
Men (AI)
• Adequate Intake = about 13 cups/day
• Fluid needs vary person to person based on factors such as
physical activity, weather conditions, and body size. The Institute
of Medicine provides the following general guidelines:
•
Carbohydrates, Protein & Fat
Everyone needs an optimal mix of:
Nutrient % of total daily calories Source
Carbohydrates 45-65% Whole grains, fruits,
veggies, non-fat dairy
Protein 10-35% Lean meat, fish, beans,
non-fat dairy
Fat 20-35% Nuts, oils
What is a healthy diet?
• Carbohydrates: 4 calories per gram; fuel your brain, central
nervous system and muscles
• Proteins: 4 calories per gram; build muscle cells, antibodies and
essential to good health
• Fats: 9 calories per gram; essential for absorption of fat soluble
vitamins, supports joint and brain health
Why Whole Grains?
• Help reduce blood cholesterol levels
• Fiber is important for bowel function
• Weight maintenance-feel “full” longer
• Whole grains provide these nutrients:
• Dietary fiber
• B-Vitamins: folate, riboflavin, niacin,
thiamin
• Minerals:
• Magnesium for bones and energy
release
• Selenium to protect cells from
damage
Whole Grain Kernel
BRAN
• About 14% of the kernel weight. The bran is included in whole wheat flour and is also available separately. The bran contains a small amount of protein, large quantities of the three major B vitamins, trace minerals and dietary fiber -- primarily insoluble.
ENDOSPERM
• About 83% of the kernel weight and the source of white flour. The endosperm contains the greatest share of protein, carbohydrates and iron, as well as the major B-vitamins such as riboflavin, niacin, thiamin and iron. It is also a source of soluble fiber.
GERM
• About 2.5% of the kernel weight. The germ is the embryo or sprouting section of the seed, often separated from flour in milling because the fat content (10 percent) limits shelf life. The germ contains high quality protein, vitamin E and a greater share of B-complex vitamins and trace minerals and antioxidants.

Fruits & Vegetables
• Packed with nutrients including fiber and powerful antioxidants
• Naturally low in fat, sodium and calories and no cholesterol.
• Support healthy weight management
• May help prevent:
StrokeCardiovascular
DiseaseKidney Stones
Certain Cancers
Type 2
Diabetes
Nutrients provided by Fruits & Veggies
• Potassium-healthy BP
• Folic Acid-red blood cells
• Dietary Fiber-heart health
• Vitamin C-growth/repair
• Vitamin E-antioxidant
Protein
• Build strong bones, muscles, skin and blood
• Provides energy
• Foods rich in protein supply essential amino acids as well as vitamins and minerals:
-Vit B used in energy metabolism, form red blood cells and build tissues (fish, lean meat, poultry)
-Vit E is an antioxidant (nuts and seeds)
-Iron carries oxygen in the blood (lean meat, seafood)
-Magnesium used in building bones and releasing energy from muscles (nuts, legumes)
-Zinc essential for proper immune function (seafood, lean meat)
Good Sources of Protein
• Lean meats: beef and pork (loin or round)
• Poultry: chicken or turkey, no frying and remove skin
• Eggs: limit butter and frying; aim for no more than 4 egg
yolks/week
• Dry beans: black beans, chickpeas, kidney beans, lentils, pinto
beans, tofu, white beans
• Nuts and seeds: almonds, cashews, walnuts in small portions
• Fish: choose those rich in Omega-3 fatty acids
• Atlantic salmon, anchovies, sardines, rainbow trout, tuna
Protein Rocks!
Sources Amount of Protein
Beef, Pork, Poultry, Fish 7 g per ounce
Egg 7 g per egg
Milk 8 g per cup
Cheese 7 g per ounce
Legumes (beans, lentils, peas,
peanuts)
6-8 g per ½ cup
Peanut Butter 8 g per 2 Tbsp
The average sedentary man needs a minimum of 56 grams per day of protein.
The average sedentary woman needs at least 46 grams per day of protein.
Dairy and other Calcium Sources
• Diets rich in calcium-containing foods like milk and milk
products, or calcium-fortified substitutes such as soy milk, help
build and maintain bone mass throughout life.
-Calcium-rich foods and beverages are especially important
during childhood when bone mass is built.
-Most bone mass is acquired before age18 for girls and 20 for
boys!
Choose veggies like broccoli or dark
leafy greens.Skim or low fat milk
Yogurt—Greek yogurt is especially high in protein and
low in sugar
Low fat hard cheese—cheddar,
swiss
Low fat soft cheese—ricotta,
cottage
Calcium fortified soy drinks, OJ
Calcium Food Sources
SOURCES* AMOUNT OF CALCIUM
1 C fat-free plain yogurt 488 mg
1 C 1% low-fat milk 305 mg
1 oz. cheese (swiss) 224 mg
½ c tofu, soft 138 mg
1 oz. almonds 76 mg
1 C cooked beans (lima) 54 mg
1 C spinach, raw 30 mg
1 C broccoli, chopped, cooked 62 mg
VITAMIN D- New Research
• Important for bone health
• Vitamin D regulates the level of serum calcium and bone re-
absorption
• Vitamin D may be important for prevention of:
• Cancers, high blood pressure, respiratory illnesses and improves
your immune system
• Vitamin D Food Sources: fortified milk and soy beverages, fatty
fish (salmon, tuna, sardines), fortified OJ, fortified breakfast
cereals, small amount in eggs
Recommended Daily Intake (Adults)
AGES CALCIUM (mg) VITAMIN D (IU)
19-50 (females)
19-70 (males)
1000 600
51-70 (females) 1200 600
71+ (females and males) 1200 800
Recommend taking a Calcium supplement if:
-Live in northern 1/3 of US
-Dark skinned
-Do not drink or consume milk products or fortified foods
Fat
• Best: Omega-3s : These fats help guard against arthritis, depression, sore muscles
and certain cancers. They are known to decrease triglyceride levels, slow growth rate of
atherosclerotic plaque, and lower blood pressure — and also have positive affects on your
skin and hair. Sources: fatty fish like salmon, tuna and mackerel, walnuts, flaxseeds and
flaxseed oil.
• Good: Mono fats.: These fats are known to raise “good” cholesterol (HDL) and lower
“bad” cholesterol (LDL). Sources: olives, canola oil, peanut oil, nuts and avocados.
• Pretty good : Omega-6s: Sources: corn, soybean and cottonseed oils, and canned
light tuna.
• Bad: Saturated fats: Saturated fats lead to plaque and inflammation, which can
narrow the arteries that supply the heart muscle, resulting in coronary artery disease
(CAD), heart attacks and congestive heart failure. Limit consumption of high-fat meats to
no more than two servings a week. Sources: animal products like fatty meats, whole milk,
stick margarines, coconut and palm oils, and lard or shortening.
• Terrible: Trans fats: Like saturated fats, trans fats raise LDL “bad” cholesterol and
increase the risk of heart disease. They also lower HDL “good” cholesterol and increase
risk of stroke, diabetes and other health risks. Sources: deep fried foods, candy,
commercial baked goods, most fast food.
