Hello. Hello. Welcome.
- 00:04 - 00:13
Today I would like to talk to you about our eating habits about food, but not, uh,
- 00:13 - 00:17
mirrors dishes or going to a restaurant.
- 00:17 - 00:20
But from a slightly different point of view,
- 00:20 - 00:23
I would like to talk to you about nutrition.
- 00:24 - 00:30
Nutrition is a process by which an organism's uses food to support its life.
- 00:31 - 00:35
Uh, and we know that we intake food.
- 00:35 - 00:41
We do it, we swallow it, it goes through our body, it's digested,
- 00:41 - 00:45
it's digested in our stomach and it's gold.
- 00:45 - 00:49
And then it goes through our intestines.
- 00:50 - 00:55
And during this process, our organism gets from the boat
- 00:55 - 01:03
all the important elements, nutrients that are essential for us to live.
- 01:05 - 01:07
And
- 01:08 - 01:16
when we talk about nutrition, we think of the whole process
- 01:17 - 01:21
getting this nutrients from the food we eat.
- 01:22 - 01:23
Um,
- 01:23 - 01:26
let's, uh, talk
- 01:26 - 01:28
first. Let's talk about
- 01:28 - 01:34
what a diet means when we think about going on a diet diet.
- 01:34 - 01:36
We think about losing weight,
- 01:37 - 01:44
but it's not that simple. I would say that a diet is a system of our eating habits,
- 01:44 - 01:52
eating and drinking habits, and some people say that even a diet can be a lifestyle.
- 01:52 - 01:56
Uh, eating and drinking lifestyle. But
- 01:57 - 02:05
we can say that the diet is just the food we eat can be our diet When we go on
- 02:05 - 02:10
a diet when we want to lose weight and we go on a diet when we want to gain weight
- 02:11 - 02:12
Uh,
- 02:12 - 02:16
a diet, it's a diet is just 1/4. Wait,
- 02:18 - 02:22
uh, when we want to lose weight,
- 02:23 - 02:26
we should eat low colour for what?
- 02:26 - 02:33
We want to gain weight, we should eat high colour food. Water colour is, uh,
- 02:34 - 02:37
for me, it's just an energy unit. Calorie. Yes.
- 02:37 - 02:45
So an average person adult person should get about 2000 calories per day.
- 02:46 - 02:47
And
- 02:48 - 02:50
this is just we should count.
- 02:50 - 02:57
Our colour is, if you want to stay fit, we don't want to be overweight.
- 02:58 - 02:59
Mm.
- 03:00 - 03:06
Now, a nutrient nutrient is a substance used by an organism to survive,
- 03:06 - 03:08
grow and reproduce.
- 03:08 - 03:12
So this is this element in the food that
- 03:12 - 03:19
our organism needs to operate. Needs to get from the foot to operate.
- 03:20 - 03:25
Uh, and there are several nutrients that are essential.
- 03:25 - 03:29
First, I would like to talk to you about carbohydrates.
- 03:29 - 03:35
We can call them carbs, and they can be found in, uh,
- 03:35 - 03:40
sugar grains Pastor bread, rice broth, vegetable starch is
- 03:41 - 03:47
and, uh, they give us a quick bit of energy quick burst of energy.
- 03:47 - 03:52
And they are extremely important for heart rates because
- 03:53 - 03:55
athletes, before going to the gym,
- 03:55 - 04:01
need this burst of energy and they use carbohydrates.
- 04:01 - 04:04
Uh,
- 04:06 - 04:12
when we talk about carbohydrates, we should take into account that,
- 04:12 - 04:15
uh, carbohydrates. Uh,
- 04:17 - 04:17
okay,
- 04:17 - 04:23
not not thinking about how how much carbohydrates do
- 04:23 - 04:29
we it We can let ourselves to gaining weight.
- 04:29 - 04:33
So they are high coloured foods,
- 04:35 - 04:38
okay. And the second nutrients,
- 04:39 - 04:43
uh, second nutrients that is important is 14.
- 04:43 - 04:47
And the nutrients that have proteins are the nutrients that
- 04:47 - 04:52
can that help create and build tissues and muscles.
- 04:52 - 04:53
Uh,
- 04:53 - 04:57
and it's essential to maintain a balance between
- 04:57 - 05:03
carbohydrates and proteins because carbohydrates give us
- 05:03 - 05:07
a quick burst of energy and proteins,
- 05:08 - 05:16
uh, general, different proteins is released very slowly, so especially for young
- 05:16 - 05:19
people and from young athletes,
- 05:19 - 05:25
it's very important to keep that bands between carbohydrates and proteins,
- 05:26 - 05:31
they simply they are simply building blocks of our body.
- 05:32 - 05:38
The third nutrient, that is very important. And,
- 05:39 - 05:40
um,
- 05:40 - 05:46
sometimes, uh, we think that it's not good to eat
- 05:47 - 05:51
fatty fought fats generally but
- 05:51 - 05:55
it's not true. There are good and bad fats.
- 05:55 - 06:03
Unsaturated fats are good, and, uh, they are essential for us to live.
- 06:03 - 06:08
We can find them in not certain off card of fish.
- 06:09 - 06:12
And they are also not half a foot,
- 06:13 - 06:21
not healthy fat. That should be avoided. Uh, we call them saturated fat or transfat
- 06:21 - 06:30
and transfers a byproduct of the manufacturing process.
- 06:30 - 06:35
When companies make products in large quantities, uh,
- 06:36 - 06:40
they use transfers so we can find them in crocus in trips.
- 06:41 - 06:49
The deep fried food is also or junk food is also, uh, full of, uh, this, uh,
- 06:49 - 06:50
saturated fats.
- 06:50 - 06:54
And what they can do
- 06:56 - 06:59
is, uh, that they can block
- 06:59 - 07:08
our artists our vein. They can lead us to heart attack or other diseases.
- 07:08 - 07:14
So saturated fats definitely avoid unsaturated fats good
- 07:15 - 07:18
and essential for us to survive.
- 07:20 - 07:28
Let's talk about the vitamins and minerals there. The last nutrients that,
- 07:29 - 07:37
uh, that are essential for us to to live and vitamins like a B, C D. B 12.
- 07:37 - 07:47
So all the all the types of letters, numbers and minerals like iron, zinc, calcium,
- 07:47 - 07:48
magnesium.
- 07:49 - 07:49
Mm.
- 07:50 - 07:57
Uh, you can get them from food, especially from from foot and fruit and vegetables.
- 07:57 - 08:03
But you can also take supplements of these vitamins and minerals.
- 08:03 - 08:09
If you don't get enough from from 48 from the food you eat.
- 08:10 - 08:12
If you if you feel tired,
- 08:12 - 08:20
it might. It might be you might be missing some some vitamins or winners.
- 08:20 - 08:22
So think about,
- 08:22 - 08:25
uh, taking some supplements
- 08:27 - 08:31
and I would like to talk to you about water.
- 08:31 - 08:36
It's not a nutrient, but it's an essential part
- 08:37 - 08:50
of our body because, uh, our body, uh, the 17, the 70% of our body is water.
- 08:50 - 08:58
Uh, and we we should remember to drink a lot of of water every day because we
- 08:59 - 09:02
don't want to dehydrate when you dehydrate.
- 09:02 - 09:07
It means your body doesn't have enough water. You can feel dizzy.
- 09:07 - 09:11
You can have a headache. You can feel tired.
- 09:11 - 09:15
So it's very important to drink as much water as you can,
- 09:16 - 09:24
uh, in order to stay healthy and what also helps in digestion. So, uh,
- 09:25 - 09:28
yes, it's very, very needed.
- 09:29 - 09:31
Thank you for your time. Today.
- 09:31 - 09:42
We'll talk about, uh, about nutrition and about digestion in more details.
- 09:42 - 09:46
Uh, in the next lesson. See, on Monday Bye bye
