Introduction
1) Food is the source of energy for all living things. 2) The importance of food includes :i) build healthy body ii) repairs & replace damages tissue iii) build new cells iv) for growth v) warm the body vi) provides energy for carrying out works

Information
Class of food
Food can be classified into 7 class of food
Carbohydrate
Protein
Fat
Vitamins
Minerals
Water
Fibre
Science~Biodiversity
A. Carbohydrates
- Made up of the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. - Main source of energy. - 2 types of carbohydrates: simple carbohydrates : sugar compels carbohydrates : starch, fibre - Excess carbohydrates are stored as fats in our body.
Rice
Potato
Bread
Tapioca
Banana
Science~Biodiversity
B. Proteins
- Made up of the elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. - Our body mainly made up of protein. - Make up of a large number of subunits called amino acids. - Main substance needed for the growth of new cell and repair the damage or injured tissues. - Used to make up cells, tissue, and organs. - During extreme saturation, protein becomes the source of energy.
Fish
Milk
Meat
Egg
Nuts
Science~Biodiversity
C. Fat
- Made out of the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. - Consists of smaller units of fatty acids combined with glycerol. - Vegetables facts: liquid form (oil). - Animals facts: solid form. - Contains twice as much energy as carbohydrate. - Stored under the skin or around organs in our body.
Plam Oil
Coconut oil
Egg york
Fish Oil
Butter
Note: Most of the oil & butter that we eat contains fat.

D. Vitamins
- Organic compound those are vital for healthy growth. - Required in small quantities. - Two kinds of vitamins : fat-soluble (A, D, E and K) water-soluble (B and C) - Does not provide any energy. - Inefficient intake of vitamins will cause vitamins deficiency. - If someone does have enough of particular vitamins, they suffer from a deficiency disease.
Vitamins A Source
carrot, liver, fish, liver oil and green vegetable egg, milk, meat, yeast and cereals
Function
For night vision Healthy Skin
Deficiency
Night blindness Skin infections
C D
fresh fruits and vegetable made by our body in sun light (sun light), also fund in milk, eggs, fish liver oil vegetable oil, whole grains, nuts and wheat germ made in human intestines, also, found in eggyork and green vegetable
Releases energy from carbohydrates Healthy nervous system Healthy skin Formation of red blood cells Healing of wounds Resistance to disease
Beriberi Anaemia
Sterility

Food show in this page and next page is the food contain Vitamin
Carrot, fish liver oil and green vegetable contain high Vitamin A
Milk, eggs, fish liver oil contains high Vitamins D. Also made by our body in sun light.
vegetable oil, whole grains, nuts and wheat germ contain high Vitamin E
Science~Biodiversity
Eggyork and green vegetable contain high Vitamin K. Also made in human intestines.
E. Minerals
- Inorganic substances needed by our body for healthy growth and. development. - Like vitamins : vital for good health required in small quantities does not provide any energy - Excess minerals are excreted through sweet and urine. - Human obtain there minerals through food and drinks. - Lack of minerals will lead to minerals deficiency.
Minerals Calcium Source
Cheese, milk, egg, green vegetable Table salt, Cheese, meat Meat, egg, green vegetable Seafood, iodised salts Egg, meat, milk, cheese, vegetables Meat, nuts, bananas
Function
Strong bones and teeth Blood clotting Muscle and nerve activities Maintain body fluid Proper functioning of nerve Needed to form haemoglobin in red blood cells Needed to make hormones of the thyroid gland Strong bones and teeth Muscle contraction Stores energy Maintain body fluid Proper functioning of nerves
Deficiency disease
Rickets Osteoporosis Prolonged Muscle cramps Muscle cramps
Anemia Goitre (swelling of the thyroid gland in the neck) Rickets Weakness Weak muscles Paralysis

F. Water
- About 70% of our body is made up of water. - Main component for our blood and body fluid. - Function of water : Water helps to dissolve and transport digested foods, gases, and horunones. Solvent for many chemical. Forming a medium for chemical reactions. Helps to regulate our body temperature. Waste substance such as salt and urea are passed from our body in water. - Not provide any energy at all.

G. Fibre (Roughage)
Made up from cellulose from plant cell wall. Fruits and vegetable are the main source of fibre. Cannot be digested by our body. Fibre absorbs water easily so that our faeces remain soft and can pass from our body easily. - Fibre can prevent constipation.
Vegetables/Fruits
Conclusion
- Men need foods to get nutrient for life. - When a man didnt get enough of carbohydrates a few days, protein and fat will becomes the main of energy. - Men cannot life without energy (nutrient).
