BASIC NUTRITION

Most young people acknowledge the need for fuels that won't harm the planet-but do they realize that also applies to fueling the body? This program guides students through the basic concepts of healthy eating and the principal nutrients that keep the human anatomy functioning properly. Outlining the properties and benefits of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, water, vitamins, and minerals, the video explains the difference between macronutrients and micronutrients, illustrates the functions of monosaccharides and disaccharides, highlights the virtues of whole grains, pinpoints the dangers of dehydration and vitamin deficiency, and presents eye-catching animation and in-depth commentary from nutrition experts clarifying each topic.

A GUIDE TO NUTRITION - FOOD SAFETY AND DISEASE PREVENTION

Despite the best efforts of experts and organizations, food-borne illness outbreaks still occur. This video examines the risks facing consumers while highlighting culinary and food-handling methods for addressing those risks. Contaminants studied in the program include bacteria (such as salmonella and E. coli) and gastrointestinal viruses as well as the potentially dangerous pesticides, herbicides, hormones, and antibiotics used in agriculture. Food-preparation advice encompasses washing hands carefully, separating raw meat from produce, and cooking food thoroughly; on the nutrition side, the program promotes fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while suggesting an array of "superfoods." Viewers also learn about government agencies charged with ensuring food safety, including the FDA and the USDA, as well as those dealing with public health, such as the EPA and the CDC.

A GUIDE TO NUTRITION - NUTRITION AND EATING DISORDERS

Whether they're viewed from a behavioral standpoint or from a profound psychological perspective, one thing is clear-eating disorders stress the body's systems and put individuals at increased risk for disease, infertility, organ failure, and death. This video pinpoints the dangers of anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and other eating disorders, exploring their possible causes as well as ways to overcome them. Showing how food consumption (or avoidance of it) is often the one thing that eating-disorder sufferers feel they can control, the program features dramatized case studies that enlighten viewers in a nonconfrontational way. With the aid of expert commentary, it also provides practical information on identifying signs of eating disorders in others and emphasizes the importance of persuading them to seek professional help.

A GUIDE TO NUTRITION - NUTRITION AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

There's no end to the number of "miracle" diets advertised on TV. Combat their influence with this video, which illustrates what's really needed to reach and maintain a healthy weight-commitment, discipline, and attention to dietary details. Focusing on bad eating habits as the main factor in America's obesity epidemic, the program also cites lack of exercise along with cultural and technological issues. Viewers learn about Body Mass Index, or BMI; the risks of being overweight or obese; ways in which healthy eating and exercise help to prevent a range of diseases; and the benefits of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and proper hydration. Students will also gain an understanding of calorie intake and expenditure using a simple formula.

A GUIDE TO NUTRITION - NUTRITION FOR SPORTS AND EXERCISE

A combination of exercise and smart eating will help anyone-from the varsity quarterback to the student who simply needs to fulfill gym requirements. It's also important to recognize that good nutrition is the power source not just for physical activity, but also for mental acuity. This video shows young people how to make healthy eating a priority as they pursue sports and fitness. Viewers encounter the four main categories of physiological health-cardiovascular and respiratory fitness, muscle strength and endurance, flexibility, and body composition-while learning how glucose, glycogen, ATP, and other compounds play a role in the body's energy production, via aerobic and anaerobic metabolism. Students may be surprised to learn that the amounts of protein, fat, and carbohydrates needed by an athlete are roughly similar to what the average person requires-and that pricey supplements are no substitute for real food.
