Chap 2   Chapter 3 : Molecules of life   Chap 4

carbohydrates BRING granola. SAY simple, complex. Why low CARB diet: count calories.
USDA cannot say eat less meat! Sugar alcohol=OH; these 1/2 carbs contribute to calories. USDA MyPlate nutrition guidelines
monosaccharides Emphasize GLUCOSE high glycemic 100, banana 51. Alcohol=C-OH hydroxyl.
Only liver can break down fructose -> triglyceride (fat: plaque in artery), insulin resistance Lactose = Glucose + GALACTOSE which is C4 (4th from right) optical or stereoisomer of glucose
corn syrup=glucose; HFCS=5% more fructose not bonded to glucose; sweeter; liver convert to glycogen & triglycerides. Sugars in your diet: glucose, fructose, sucrose
polysaccharides BANANA. Discuss simple/complex SUGARS in energy link. Carbo-loading: glyco depletion/loading -> increase insulin/decrease glucose.
cellulose RIGID
glycogen Eat starch BANANA do you eat glycogen? Nope MEAT has glycogen!
glucose Note GLYCOGEN discussion starts w GLUCOSE excess & ends w FAT next topic.
fats say FATTY acids; oil=liquid! MOLYMOD. Energy density 2X sugars.
saturation MOLYMOD. Endomorph (round)-> meso, ecto. Saturated vs. unsaturated fats (Bite-Sci-zed) Omega 3 & Omega 6 fats: (polyunsaturated) Google Home's substitute for butter: do you believe everything google says?
hydrogenation Not all FATS bad: Omega=cis unsaturated. Grain-fed cattle, fast food (vegetable oil) -> too much Omega6 -> inflammation. Hydrogenation and trans fats Omega 3 fatty acids: good fats
sterols BRING p. butter, trail mix CANS for food labels. Progesterone from LDL. HDL moves excess back to liver. Cholesterol: LDL and HDL
phospholipids ERRATA phospholipid does NOT form monolayer sphere
proteins POLAR oxygen. Wear HANCOCK shirt. Proteins: how much do you need?
protein-structure Goblet cell secretes mucus (glycoproteins mostly carbohydrates).
Lentils + rice; corn + beans give all 9 essential amino acids.
enzyme SAY Active site, video also says reactants. Diagram does not show lactose; use monosac figure=glucose+galactose This shows 1 substrate -> 2 products. Got Lactase? evolution of lactase persistence
nucleic_acids sugar=carbohydrate. Details continued chap 6 DNA & expression.
RNA methylation of U=T.
