Hello everyone today in my first ever blog I will discuss something new and different with you people. So let's start by asking ourselves what did we eat for lunch yesterday? ?Was it a burger, a pizza, a vegetable sandwich or just some tasty curry and rice.
Or did you skip a meal?
Well we all keep wondering what should we eat to be healthy and fit but don't worry in the next few minutes I will try to give you all a complete picture about nutrition.Yyes you heard me right we all come across this term quite often but fail to understand the true meaning of it so without any further delay let's get started.
Every living organism needs energy. Isn't that true we see animals like cows grazing in the fields, then another example is that we humans have food two to three times in a day. Now all this food we eat is to obtain energy in the body so we can say that food is the fuel required by the body to function properly and for the living organisms to survive. Humans perform all the day-to-day activities like walking ,exercising, playing sports, dancing, climbing etc by using the energy obtained from the food they eat. But besides all these do you all know that the body also requires energy even when we do not perform any physical activity like say just sitting around doing nothing sleeping or meditating. This is because that energy is required by the body for biological processes which continuously occur in the body like breathing or beating of the heart. Therefore to produce energy food is the basic requirement for everyone.
We as humans have a writing of food available to us to eat the most simplest form of food is glucose, a simplest form of food because a body can absorb glucose quickly and provide instant energy. We all know that sportsmen and athletes depend on this glucose syrup for instant energy also a glucose drip is given to patients in the hospitals as they too need this instant energy but we all know it's not a complete form of food.
Food has many more components which when eaten together provide us with the required energy. Let's see what our daily diet looks like. We consume foods like rice, potato and types of breads which provide energy but not as quickly as glucose ,these foods contain starch which is a complex form of glucose itself and this starch is ultimately broken by the body into glucose and therefore starch is absorbed at a slower rate as compared to simple glucose molecules now both these components that is glucose and starch belong to a family of carbohydrates but other than carbohydrates there are other families like proteins fats and vitamins and minerals. So now let's look at the various food sources of these families since all the contents in these families provide energy. They are called as nutrients. When all these nutrients are present in some form in our diet in the right quantity we call that diet to be a healthy and well balanced diet and the process of consuming all these nutrients and using them for the growth maintenance and repair of our body is called as nutrition. But what if all these nutrients are present in an imbalanced form in an individual's diet that is if the nutrients are in insufficient quantities we say that the person is suffering from under nutrition but on the other hand what if any of these nutrients are in excess quantities we say that it's over nutrition now both these terms for an imbalanced form of nutrition in one's diet can be collectively termed as malnutrition but commonly we consider under nutrition as a major aspect of malnutrition besides this we all have heard the term deficiency.
Now deficiency occurs if an individual fails to meet the daily requirement of only a particular nutrient thus it is very important for all the nutrients to be present in a balanced quantity in our diet for a healthy and happy life so as promised we did give you all the information you need about a healthy diet but just so you know our food eating habits have given rise to some unusual myths related to nutrition. Like for example some people say that skipping breakfast helps you to lose weight but the fact is research shows that breakfast skippers tend to overeat during the day so don't go by the logic that by skipping a meal you tend to consume less food. So now since we have busted this well-known myth with a very important fact I would like to tell you only one thing eat well and stay healthy. If you liked the session please leave in your valuable comments and if you found this really informative share it with your friends.
Thank you so much
