health through the lifespan advances, nutritional advice will become individualized
based on a person’s genetic makeup. (True, p. 33)
High alcohol intake during pregnancy sharply increases the risk of fetal alcohol
syndrome in some women, but not others. (True, p. 34)
Herbal remedies don’t have to be proven to be safe or effective before they are allowed to

Chapter Outline
I. Introduction
Nutrition is a growing, interdisciplinary science. Nutrition knowledge sometimes is referred
to as “the art and science of nutrition.” This chapter links principles of the science of
nutrition with applications that can enhance the public’s nutritional health.
II. Principles of the Science of Nutrition
Chapter 1 gets students up to speed on basic nutrition. This section is a crash course. The
10 principles of human nutrition, listed in Table 1.1 (p. 2), beginning with “food is a basic
need of humans,” constitute the thread that links the many concepts presented in this
chapter. Six major nutrient categories (carbohydrate, protein, fats [lipids], vitamins,
minerals, and water) are defined in Table 1.2 (p. 3). Dietary intake standards for each of the
essential nutrients in the six nutrient categories depend on an individual’s age, gender,
growth pattern and other factors listed on p. 3-4. A thorough list of food sources of vitamins
is provided in Table 1.10 (p. 18 – 22) and a list of food sources of minerals is presented in
Table 1.14 (p. 28 - 31). Examples of diseases and disorders that are linked to diet are given
in Table 1.16 (p. 35). The discussion questions and activities for Chapter 1 highlight
essential nutrients, providing students with practice opportunities to evaluate their own
personal nutrient needs.
