Pyridoxine Vit 6
Beriberi
Thiamin B1
Kidney hemorrhage
Choline
Anemia in Infants: Megaloblastic Anemia (abnormal large blood cells)
Folate
Main deficiency syndrome: fatty liver
Choline
Biermer’s disease (pernicious anemia).
Cobalamin B12
Depression, loss of muscle control, and skin irritations
Biotin
Macrocytic anemia, increased cardiovascular disease
Folate
Metabolic Process in the liver to increase serum blood glucose on the presence of 30 day
fasting
Gluconeogenesis
This non-essential amino acid is essential in infants
Histidine
This essential amino acid builds muscle tissue, promotes healing of wounded bone tissue
and skin, lowers high levels of blood sugar.
Leucine
T or F
Cobalamin can be synthesized by microorganisms in the intestinal tract of animals and man,
but the amount available to the human body to supplement the dietary supply is small.
False
Y.L a 47y/o female was diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis was referred to you for
dietary planning. Knowing that the patient is undergoing multidrug therapy you suspect that the greatest effect of it would cause deficiency in what vitamin?
Riboflavin
Which among the following symptoms denote vitamin b6 deficiency?
a. Spoon shaped nails,
b. loss of appetite,
c. corkscrew hairs,
d. pellagrous dermatitis
D. pellagrous dermatitis
is required for the normal growth and development of nerve tissue in the fetus, and
increased maternal intake of folate during the reproductive period
Folate
acts as a cofactor for “methyl malonyl mutase”, which breaks down odd-chain fatty acids
Cobalamin B12
acts as a coenzyme in more than 100 chemical reactions related to the metabolism of
proteins and amino acids via transamination. These reactions are required for synthesizing
nonessential amino acids
Pyridoxine B6
critical for ATP production. Specifically, it is needed to synthesize CoA, a coenzyme required
to metabolize glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids via glycolysis and the citric acid cycle.
Biotin B7
Synthesis of Purine & Pyrimidines
Biotin
ATP PRODUCTION
Thiamin B1
Acts as a detoxicant, ridding the body of toxins, pollutants, and drugs
Niacin B3
Needed for Production of Acetyl Coenzyme A
Pantothenate B5
Helps convert tryptophan to nicotinic acid
Pyridoxine B6
Hydrogen & electron acceptors: which are important in energy metabolism (aerobic &
anaerobic oxidation of glucose), fatty acid synthesis, protein synthesis
Thiamin
Enzyme in the mouth that partially chemically digests lipids
Lingual lipase
This essential amino acid is a precursor of dopamine, norepinephrine and adrenaline. It
enhances positive mood. It is also antioxidant.
Tyrosine
Essential protein that is necessary for muscle metabolism
Valine
T or F
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is present only in the cell nuclei while the Ribonucleic Acid is found only in the cytoplasm
1 st: correct
2 nd: wrong
Vitamin that is needed to form new tissue and repair damaged tissue via synthesis of protein
Vit C
ENZYME IN THE MOUTH THAT CHEMICALLY DIGESTS CHO
Amylase
T or F
Rich sources of folic acid are green leafy vegetables, root vegetables, lean beef, liver, kidney, dairy products, yeast, carrots, avocado, melon and whole grains.
True
Metabolic Process that uses protein carriers to break oxygen and hydrogen bonds
Cellular respiration
PANCREATIC ENZYME THAT REACTS WITH PROTEIN IN THE DUODENUM TO UNRAVEL
LONG PEPTIE CHAINS
Protease
This fatty acid has two or more double bonds that can accept hydrogen atoms, can lower
cholesterol levels
Unsaturated fatty acids
Pancreatic secretion that neutralizes an acidic bolus
Pancreatic juice
a necessary element to enable the liver to assemble various amino acids into usable protein
form
glutamate
This form of fat is the fat or lipid that is mostly stored and needs an increase in the BMR to
be utilized
Triglycerides
Pyruvic Acid is to Lactic Acid: Amino Acid is to
BMR in the elderly is expected to be:
lower
Name the pancreatic enzyme that react with fat in the small intestine
Lipase
compute for infant dbw at 14 mos born with 3100G bw

Y.L a 47y/o female was diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis was referred to you for
dietary planning. Physical data are as follows
HT: 5’6”
WT: 47 KG
Spoon shaped nails, Pellagrous dermatitis, Corkscrew hairs, Loss of appetite
With the condition of the patient what macromineral would be important in increasing in the
patient’s diet
calcium
Identify the BMI of the patient
5’11, 65 kg
