2 To Provide: Water & electrolytes Energy needs of body from nutrients Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Essential Elements Some amino acids which can t be synthesized in the body _valine, methionine, leucine Vitamins Trace elements and salts

3 Daily use of Calories is 30-40X BW in Kg. So a 75 Kg woman burns 2250 to 3000 Calories/ day (about enough to run a small car for 1.5 Km) 1 calorie is the amount of energy require to raise the temperature of a ml of water 1 degree C. Food and Energy : Carbohydrates -- 4 Cal/gram Proteins -- 4 Calories/gram Fats -- 9 Calories/gram

4 Sitting 1.7 Calories/min Walking 3.8 Calories/min Biking 7 Calories/min Rowing 11 Calories/minute

5 The alimentary canal or gastrointestinal tract (GIT) consists of : Main digestive organs: mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine Accessory digestive organs : teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder and pancreas
