Define: carcinogenic diet (7)
- low fat & veg intake
- low level of antioxidants (esp. vita A&C)
- low intake of whole grains & fiber
- high dietary fat intake
- nitrosamines fm burnt & charred foods
- high intakes of pickled & fermented intake
- high animal-food => low plant-food intake
Define: atherogenic diet (10)
- high in sat fat (>10% cals)
- trans-fatty acid intake
- dietary cholesterol intake (>300mg)
- low fruit & veg intake
- low antioxidants
- low intake of whole grains
- no or excess alcohol (moderation)
- high sodium intake
- low potassium intake
- low intake of milk & dairy foods
Define: obesogenic diet
- caloric intake exceed needs
- unstructured eating
- frequent fast-food consumption
- high fat intake
- sugar-sweetened drink consumption
- energy-dense, low-nutrient food choices
Define: menopause
s
Define: health disparities
Some populaBon groups have aé prevalence of chronic diseases than others
¤ Some groups have a geneBc disposiBon for certain diseases
¤ GeneBcs & environment interact
Define: obesogenic diet (6)
- caloric intake exceed needs
- unstructured eating
- frequent fast-food consumption
- high fat intake
- sugar-sweetened drink consumption
- energy-dense, low-nutrient food choices
Define: menopause (4)
Women
- ↓ of estrogen => menopause
- ↑ abdominal fat
- ↑ risk of CVD
- accelerated loss of bone mass
Define: health disparities
- Some population groups have a ↑ prevalence of chronic diseases than others
- Some groups have a genetic disposition for certain diseases
- Genetics & environment interact
What are the determinants of health disparities?
Social determinants: 1. physical environment 2. health services 3. social environment Intrapersonal (indiv) determinants: 1. indiv behavior 2. biology & genetics
Describe physiological changes present during adulthood (6)
- Growing stops by the 20’s
- Bone density continues until 30 (vitaD&Ca)
- Muscular strength peaks around 25 to 30
- ↓ size and mass of muscle
- ↑ in body fat
- Dexterity and flexibility ↓
Describe body composition changes present during adulthood
Bone loss begins around age 40 -Risk of osteopenia/osteoporosis depends on peak bone mass - + energy balance => ↑ weight & adiposity - ↓in muscle mass Fat redistribution: ↑central & intra-abdominal space -↑subcutaneous fat. Associated with:
Describe hormonal and climacteric changes present during adulthood
