4
Q
What are reliable dietary food sources for Calcium
A
milk and milk products, kale, collard greens, mustard greens, canned fish
5
Q
How is Calcium absorbed, transported, stored, and excreted in the body
A
the absorption of calcium requires a slightly acidic environment (ph less than 6) like the stomach acid therefore calcium is absorbed in the upper part of the small intestine
its absorption is also dependent on the presence of active vitamin D 1,25 Hydroxy vitamin D3
6
Q
What are the functions of Calcium in the body
A
Bone development and maintenance; blood clotting (along with Vitamin K); the release of NT in nerve impulse transmission, during muscle contraction calcium ions released from intracellular stores within muscle cells and with ATP allow contractile proteins to slide along each other; cell metabolism calcium binds with calmogelin which can regulate the activity of many enzymes including those involved in glycogenolysis.
7
Q
What is the classic Calcium deficiency and what are the risk factors?
A
Osteoporosis: is a condition in which bones become porous and fragile due to the loss of minerals and are more likely to fracture.
Leads to 1.5 million fractures/year-major public health problem because old women who break their hip-half die within one year and in the rest the quality of life declines tremendously
risk factors: age is most important risk factor, more common in women then men, lower estrogen in post menopausal women, in men more prevalent after drop in testosterone, caucasian women 3x more likely than African American women (conserve bone mass better), low BMI, smoking

45
Describe the general differences between minerals and vitamins
Inorganic: not bound to any carbon atoms, composed of a single element
minerals retain their chemical identity even after they are exposed to heat, oxygen, acid, or UV light, if you burn a food completely to ash you will still be able to recover the intact minerals in the ash
46
Describe the general differences between major minerals and trace minerals
Minerals are essential micronutrients must be provided in the diet because our body cannot produce these elements
major minerals are needed in quantities greater than 100mg whereas Trace minerals are needed in quantities less than 100 mg.d
Not all food sources are created equal: some sources are more bioavailable in general minerals from animal food sources are more likely to be readily absorbed by the body.
The more refined a grain the lower mineral content
Iron is the only mineral required to be added back to refined products
Trace minerals have a narrow range of safe intake can be toxic at levels not much higher than the daily allowance
47
What are the two types of Iron (Fe)
Ferric Iron (Fe3+) (oxidized)
Ferrous Iron (Fe2+) (reduced)
occurs in two forms in food:
Heme iron is contained in hemoglobin, myoglobin of meat, fish poulty
Nonheme iron is present in vegetables, grains, and supplements
48
Discuss the reasons why a protein adequate diet can meet the body's intake for sulfur
If you have a diet adequate in protein you will get enough sulfur, part of a natural diet primarily in proteins but also used to preserve food
49
Describe the absorption, transport, storage, and excretion of iron
both heme and nonheme iron are absorbed in the small intestine, however, heme iron is absorbed directly into the intestinal cell after the globin part of the molecule is cleaved off. Nonheme iron must have an electron removed before being absorbed.
Acidic conditions promote the conversion of ferric iron to ferrous iron
Once inside the intestinal cells (mucosal cells) iron is bound to ferritin and stored there until it is needed elsewhere in the body or the mucosal cell dies in 3-5 days. The iron can be used by the intestinal cell by an enzyme cofactor or if it is needed elsewhere in the body it will be transferred from ferritin to transferrin a protein which can transport iron to other parts of the bodu where it is needed or to the iron where it can be stored. If iron in liver is high the number of ferritin molecules in intestinal mucosal cells increases essentially binding any more iron from your diet and preventing iron stored in your liver and body from getting to high. And the bound iron to ferritin inside the mucosal cells is excreted effectively blocking extra iron absorption in the body
50
What are the major functions of iron
Component of hemoglobin in red blood cells (oxygen transport), myoglobin in muscle cells (oxygen storage); energy metabolism as part of cytochromes involved in electron transport chain; enzyme cofactor, perioxidase in WBC (immune function) collagen synthesis, NT, eicosanoids
51

Symptoms: fatigue upon exertion, difficulty concentrating. Iron deficiency without anemia: paleness, brittle nails, fatigue, difficulty, breathing, poor growth, in children: pallor, listlessness, behavioral/cognitive/learning problems. in adults: impaired work performance/productive, impaired immune function, impaired ability to maintain body temperature; Pica
52
Iron toxicity symptoms and conditions
Fe poisoning, accidental Fe overload: Fe supplements ingested in large doses, leading cause of accidental poisoning in children, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, increased heartbat, shock, death may be due to excessive free radical damage. Hemochromatois: recessive genetic disease, fe overload due to enhanced Fe absorption, Fe deposit can lead to organ damage, failure, most prevalent in adult Caucasion males, may go undetected until age 50-60 when organ fails , treatment: frequement phlebotomy, fe chelator Hemosiderosis: excessive sotrage of iron in liver as hemosiderin, hyperplasia

55
Describe absorption, transport, storage and excretion of zinc
the absorption of zinc is similar to iron
absorbed most efficiently from meat, liver, eggs, seafood, less efficiently from vegetables and grains
once zinc is absorbed into the intestinal cells it is bound to metalothionine, in the mucosal cell, zinc can either be used in the cell or it can be bound to the protein albumin by use of other tissues in the body. Some zinc may be used by the pancreas to make digestive enzymes and end up back in the intestine.
There is a mucosal block that prevents the over absorption of zinc in the body, large doses can override the mucosal block, however, the excess amount is readily secreted by the pancreas to the intestines and ends up in the feces
Two ways to excrete zinc either mucosal block, or when zinc is secreted in the intestines to the body and back to the intestines (unlike iron)
also urine and sweat
56
What are the functions of zinc
major role is as metalloenzyme component (provides structural integrity to enzyme, and or participates in catalytic reaction, required by more enzymes than all trace minerals combines); protein structure, replication of DNA, RNA, growth and development, sexual maturity, reproduction, immune function, appetite, taste perception
57

63
Functions of Copper
metalloprotein component and enzyme cofactor: Ceruloplasmin in addition to being a transport protein for copper is also an enzyme that helps prepared stored iron for transport, in fact with a prolong copper deficiency you can end up with an iron deficient anemia
Key factor in synthesizing hemoglobin because it releases stored iron from ferritin
Enzyme cofactor for Superoxide Dismutase-part of our own endogenous anti-oxidant system exists in cells functions is to eradicate different types of free radicals
SOD needs copper and zinc and therefore they can be considered free radicals
64

100
List the hormones needed to maintain blood calcium levels, and describe how calcium homeostasis is maintained
the level of calcium in you blood is under homeostatic control, your body tries to maintain a constant level of calcium in the blood ( a blood test would be a poor indicator of calcium status
two hormones: Calcitonin and Parathyroid hormone
when blood levels of calcium are low, signal parathyroid to release parathyroid hormone (parathormone) which increased calcium by stimulating the activation of Vitamin D in the kidneys, vitamin D and parathormone together stimualte calcium reabsorption in teh kidneys, active vitamin D enhances absorption of calcium from foods that end up in intestines, active vitamin D and parathormone stimulate osteoclasts in bone to break down some of bone cells releasing calcium in blood stream
acting on kidneys intestines and bones parathormone and active vitamin D all act to increase levels of calcium in blood stream
when calcium levels get too high this action stops and thyroid produces calcitonin which will work to stop the activation of vitamin D, enhance excretion of calcium in kidneys, inhibit absorption of calcium in intestines, and inhibit osteoclast cells in bones from breaking down
calcitonin works in opposite of parathyroid hormone.
101
describe bone remodeling
osteoclasts: release calcium from bone, reabsorbed into blood, bone eroded
osteoblasts secrete collagen matrix, bone mineral, promote bone formation
102
building peak bone mass and what factors build a higher bone mass
During growth, osteoblast exceeds osteoclasts activity, more bone mass in areas under higher stress, peak bone mass is reached between 20-30yo, bone loss begins in mid adulthood, significant loss at menopause
higher bone mass= adequate diet, healthy body weight, normal menses, weight bearing physical activity, moderate intakes of P, Na, Caffeine, non smoker, lower use of certain medications
103
What are factors that enhance and inhibit iron absorption
factors that enhance the absorption of iron
MFP factor, vitamin C, presence of adequate stomach absorption
inhibit: phytates and oxalates int eh fiber of certain plant based foods can bind to iron because they have a highly negative charge and iron positive charge
calcium and phosphorus are also negatively charged inhibit absorption due to competition for binding sites
Tea, coffee, red wine and other foods or bevs high in tannins or polyphenols can also decrease absorption
104
Describe the Mucosal Block Theory for Iron?
Once inside the intestinal cells (mucosal cells) iron is bound to ferritin and stored there until it is needed elsewhere in the body or the mucosal cell dies in 3-5 days. The iron can be used by the intestinal cell by an enzyme cofactor or if it is needed elsewhere in the body it will be transferred from ferritin to transferrin a protein which can transport iron to other parts of the bodu where it is needed or to the iron where it can be stored. If iron in liver is high the number of ferritin molecules in intestinal mucosal cells increases essentially binding any more iron from your diet and preventing iron stored in your liver and body from getting to high. And the bound iron to ferritin inside the mucosal cells is excreted effectively blocking extra iron absorption in the body
105
Who is most at risk for iron-deficient anemia?
pregnant women, infants, toddlers, teenagers, women of childbearing age, vegans, runners
106
Compare the availability of iron from plant and animal sources
