Water : 63% proteins :17% minerals :7% vitamins :1% Carbohydrates: 12 % HOW OUR ORGANISM USES NUTRIENTS Eating brings different chemical and physical phenomens in our body. Food follow different nutritious processes : Digestion absorbtion metabolism excretion Substances in nutrients

  8. DIGESTION: Are the transformations occuring in the digestive tube simplifying food to substance level making it easy for absorption. In the mouth: food is chewed with saliva torn in pieces. In the stomach:food goes through regular movements that grind it until it turns into a liquid mass. In the small intestine:food substances are mixed with pancreatic and intestinal juices so as with bile to be totally digested facilitating its absorption. Absorption: it is the process through which nutrients go from the small intestine to the blood circulation. Metabolism. Are the modifications which nutrients go through since their absorption until they are excreted. Excretion: The organism frees substances that are no longer useful through the kidneys and intestine.

  10. Good nutrition depends on several factors: economy,cultural,educational,ecological and others.It Is necessary to educate our population of how to select,prepare and eat their food.Making food guides is a stategy to reach all Honduras with a unified,simple real,and scientific way.They are done to improve the Honduran daily diet and contribute to their health.Food guides adjust to social,economical ,biological forms so as to customs. Their goal is to lower illnesses related to bad nutrition,control deficiencies and excesses and also increase healthy conditions among the population. The main purpose is to give necesssary information so people can choose their food and diet to be healthy. Food guides

It is better to eat them with their skin. Beverages made with fruits should be prepared with boiled water. Processed fruits have less vitamins. Yellow fruits like mango,papaya,zapote,marañon are rich in vitamin A. It is good to eat them with meals since vitamin C absorbs the iron that is in vegetables.

Leaves should be washed individually with lots of water.Vegetables should also be washed with lots of clean water. It is better to cook them in vapor avoiding to lose vitamins and minerals. If they are cooked in water that should not be thrown away ,it should be used for soups,rice or sauces since that water has lots of vitamins and minerals. #3 Eat vegetables every day

  15. Combination of cereals(corn)and legumes(beans) form protein of good quality compared with those from animal products. Examples: Tortilla and beans – rice and beans – tamalitospisques – rice with soy bean – tortilla and soy bean These combinations equal one ounce of meat or an egg . Tortillas are a good source of calcium when the corn is cooked with lime.Calcium is good for the formation of teeth and bones. Tortillas and beans are an energy source since they are carbohydrates #4 FOR EACH TORTILLA EAT ONE TABLESPOON OF BEANS

  18. Salt with no iodine can inflamate thyroid gland and Cause mental retardness.Iodine is found in seafood.Since seafood is hard to get or sometimes expensive the authorities of PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENT have commanded the addition of iodine to the salt sold. Too much salt can cause hipertension,heart and kidneys diseases. Try to avoid using wet salt since it affects the iodine in it. Deficiency of vitamin A can increase child mortality.Vitamin A is found in green fruits and vegetables So as in dark yellow ones and in liver. Since these foods are not consumed in a proper way the PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENT has ordered the fortification of sugar with vitamin A since this product is consumed enormously all around our country. #7 USE IODINE SALT AND VIT. A FORTIFIED SUGAR

ALL THIS IS DUE TO THE BIG DIVERSITY IN VEGETATION SO AS IN FAUNA AND TO THE SEVERAL DIFFERENT AREAS AND ETHNIC GROUPS. THE BASIC INGREDIENTS IN THE MAYORITY OF STEWS, SOUPS AND MEATS ARE TOMATOES,GARLIC,PEPPERS,ONION, CILANTRUM AND CUMMINS.ALL THESE ARE CHOPPED AND COOKED TOGETHER .IT IS KNOWN AS SOFRITO. THAT IS OUR BASE FOR THE FOLLOWING STEPS.IT IS USED FOR ENCHILADAS,TACOS,CHICKEN,SOUP, CHICKEN STEW,BEEF STEW ,RICE WITH CHICKEN,SEA FOOD AND MANY MORE. WHEN COOKING,THE AMOUNT OF HEAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. WHILE FRYING , THE HEAT MUST BE HIGH BUT NOT WHEN STEWING. THE WAY YOU CUT YOUR MEATS AND VEGETABLES SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TOO IF YOU WANT CERTAIN FLAVORS. THIS CAN ALTER THE TASTE . IF THE VEGETABLES ARE PUT IN A BLENDER THEY WILL TASTE DIFFERENT THAN IF YOU SLICE OR CHOP THEM. THE AMOUNT OF TIME IS ALSO IMPORTANT. IT WILL ALL DEPEND ON THE TYPE OF RECIPE.
