Test Two Overview
Chapter 1:
Government agencies – CDC (canter for disease control) They provide info on diseases,
help to control breakouts of diseases, Deal with food recalls and food born illnesses
(Ecoli) control outbreak of any infections.
FDA (Food and drug administration) Focus on food quality, ensure food and drugs are
safe to consume, inspect facilities, expiration dates on things.
USDA (United states department of agriculture) help to design setup and expectable
standards for diet and nutrition such as portion size, food labels, and healthy eating
habits. Improve nutrition and health by providing food assistance and education.
The DRI (dietary guidelines) review them identify need for changes.
Guides – (My plate) (Food pyramid) (healthy people 2020) guides are for nutrition
standards, dietary guidelines, and food guides.

Evidence based practice (EBP) – Need to look for evidence, identify the problem, and ask

Test Two Overview
o Fat-soluble vitamins – A, B, E, K, 1% or 2% milk better for you because there is
vitamin D in it. Vitamin D is fat soluble and helps vitamin d to process quicker
and more effectively.
o Food sources –Vitamin C - citrus fruits, Vitamin A – cheese, eggs, dairy, melons,
tomato juice, carrots Vitamin D liver, dark green leafy veggies? Vitamin E
( antioxidant) found in dark green leafy veggies, nuts, fortified cereals, vegetable
oils
o Deficiencies (up top)
o Function in the body (at top)
o WHY DO WE NEED THEM

sodium, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium sodium chloride, sulfur (pg 139)
