Life Cycle

Question 1

Folate in fetus

Answer 1

Cell repro
Incrased maternal req-prob need sups
Prevent NC defects

Question 2

B12 in fetus

Answer 2

Assists folate in manufacture of new cells

Animal foods

Question 3

Iron in fetus

Answer 3

Maternal red cell mass expands

Absorption of iron incresaes 3x

Fetus draws heavily on iron stores

NEED VITAMIN C FOR ABSORPTION

Interferes with Zn absroption

Question 4

Vitamin C in fetus

Answer 4

helps with Fe absorption

Question 5

Zn in fetus

Answer 5

DNA, RNA, protein synthesis

def=predicts low birth weight

Fe intereferes with Zn absorption

Question 6

Maternal nutrient supps and who needs

Answer 6

Folate,Fe, Ca, other stuff

Reduce preterm, low birthweight, birth defects

Esepcially needed @poor diet, high risk preg, cigs/alc/drugs

Question 7

Preeclampsia

Answer 7

severe htx
protein in urine
whole body edema
1st preg
convulsions=need medical attention

Question 8

Carbs and Ca

Answer 8

carbs increase Ca absoroption

Question 9

6 Breast milk components

Answer 9

carbs (lactose), lipids (Fa’s), protein (easily digestable alpha-lactalbumin), vitD, low Zn, highly absorbably Fe and Zn

Question 10

Infant supps

Answer 10

after 6moths-D, Fe, F

Question 11

3formula drawback

Answer 11

no immunity

need to be iron fortified

risks over dilution/contamination

Question 12

Cows milk (4)

Answer 12

poor source of iron

High Ca low vit C

high protein-can stress infant kdneys

start 1 year, lower fat 2-5 years

Question 13

Pb tox in kids (2)

Answer 13

Malnourished

low Ca, Zn, vit c/D, Fe

Question 14

food jags/picky eating

Answer 14

jags-tendancy to eat only small selection-common, normal and tempoarary-use food diary/offer lots of different types/wean off

picky-not wanting to try new food

Question 15

Anaphylactic Shock

Answer 15

life threatening reaction to allergen

trx with epi

Question 16

adolensence nutrient needs

Answer 16

Ca-1/2 peak bone mass at adolesence

Fe-for muscle grwoth and increase blood voluem (and periods)

Question 17

thrst @ agining

Answer 17

thirst and dry mouth

• dehdration
• -total bod y water decreases with age

Question 18

malnutrtion @ agining

Answer 18

possible cuz dont want to cook
or cuz living alone
1:6 old people are malnourished
Possible drug interactions=mess with nutreint absorption (be wary of inactive ingredients)

Question 19

vitamins and minerals @ ageing (6)

Answer 19

b12-atrophic gastritis=especially vulnerable
-def may cause neurologic damage (forgetting)

vit D-def in intake/skin syntehsis decline

Ca-due to stomach discomfort with milk intake

Fe-def in chornic blood loss and low stomach acid output-possibly cant chew meat

Zn-intake anadequate and absorption poor

folate
