Test 3 Flashcards
factors affecting planning of balanced diet
food’s
- availability
- origin
- chemical composition
- predominant function
- how to combine them
Cereals
- rice
- wheat
- maize
staple food of nearly half the population
rice
food for cattle and poultry
maize
why is maize used as a fodder
- it’s rich in fats
2. it’s cheaper
cereal: role
- main source of energy - carbohydrates - 350 kcal per 100 gms
- gives significant proteins 6-12 of total
- minerals
- vitamin b complex
energy per 100 g (cereals)
350 kcal
yellow variety of maize
has carotene
cereals - % nutrition in terms of total food an average indian takes
energy -70-80
proteins- 50
cereal proteins
deficit in lysine
maize proteins
deficit on lysine and Tryptophan
leucine in maize
interferes with niacin formation
- pellagragenic
complementary action
cereal and pulses - balanced and complete protein
milled rice
bran, husk, germ removed
- increased storage life
- low spoilage
- altered taste, texture
parts of rice grain
- grain (embryo)
- inner endosperm
- outer pericarp and aleurone layer
endosperm of rice grain
contains starch
pericarp aleurone layer and germ of rice grain contains
- essential nutrients
protein content of rice
6-9%
rice protein - quality
more lysine than other cereals - better
vitamins in rice
vitamin B complex

- home pound or mill
advantage of parboiling
- steaming - vitamins and minerals of aluerone layers are driven in to the endosperm - milling won’t lead to loss of nutrients now
- drying - germ gets attached to grain firmly and also, the rice grain hardens. starch is gelatinised
