Components of food

 

                                   Components of Food 

We eat different types of vegetables, fruits, cereals and pulses. We all eat food to obtain energy for our daily activities. There are different components of food and each of these components is required by our body to perform different cellular activities.
  • And these components are called Nutrients. These nutrients in our food are named as fats, carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins and minerals. Also, food contains water and dietary fibers which are needed by human body. and my students explained it very nicely by using charts 
  • Food is a basic requirement for all living organisms. It provides energy for carrying out normal physiological activities. There are different components and they have different nutrients. They all come together to provide wholesome nourishment to us.

    For Example:

    • Dal, eggs, meat etc contain proteins.
    • Fruits and vegetables contain vitamins.
    • Cereals, pulses, Oats contain predominantly carbohydrates.
    • Oil, ghee, butter, cheese, pork, chocolates, lard and cream contains fat.
    • carbohydrates

      Carbohydrates are present mostly as starch. They provide us with energy and are thus energy giving food. Wheat, Potato, Rice etc. are good sources of carbohydrates.

      Proteins

      * Proteins are the bodybuilding nutrients. They are needed to build every single part and organ of the body. They help in the growth and repair of our body.

      Eggs, Meat, Lentils etc are good sources of proteins.

    • Fats

      Fats are high energy nutrients. They are needed in a moderate amount by the body. Fats are the reserved food material of our body ,Oils, ghee, butter etc are the sources of fat.
