Dietary Requirements
Balanced diet with adequate amounts of all nutrients is required to remain healthy. This includes adequate amounts of: Proteins Carbohydrates Fats Vitamins and minerals. Each of these nutrients has a definite role to play in maintaining health. Foods have to be processed in the right way to avoid loss of these nutrients from food. For this it is essential to know and practise the right ways of cleaning and cooking food. The dietary requirement depends on factors like the age, kind of work the person does, man or woman, whether pregnant/lactating.

y Protein
. Proteins are polymer chains made of amino acids linked The essential amino acids, which must be obtained from food sources, are leucine, isoleucine, valine, lysine, threonine,tryptophan, methionine, phenylalanine a nd histidine. together by peptide bonds. In nutrition, proteins are broken down in the stomach during digestion by enzymes known asproteases into smaller polypeptides to provide amino acids for the body, including the essential amino acids that the organism cannot be biosynthesized by the body itself. Thus, protein from one's diet should provide both essential and non-essential amino acids for protein synthesis.

y Vitamins
A vitamin is an organic compound required as a nutrienVitamins have diverse biochemical functions. Some have hormone-like functions as regulators of mineral metabolism (e.g., vitamin D), or regulators of cell and tissue growth and differentiation (e.g., some forms of vitamin A). Others function as antioxidants (e.g., vitamin E and sometimes vitamin C). An important role of vitamins is maintainance of immunobiological reaction of organisms. y o o Vitami n generic descrip tor name Depending on ability for solibility, it is divided into two groups Water soluble Fat soluble or liposoluble Recomme nded Solubil dietary allowances ity (male, age 1970)[18]

y Fats
Fats consist of a wide group of compounds that are generally soluble in organic solvents and generally insoluble in water. Chemically, fats are generally triesters of glycerol and fatty acids.

Fats are also known as: Lipids Monounsaturated fat Polyunsaturated fat Saturated fat

Fat is a major source of energy and also aids your body in absorbing fat soluble vitamins. Fat is important for proper growth and development and for keeping you healthy. Fat adds flavor and taste to foods and gives you satiety value Fats are an important source of calories and nutrients especially for infants and toddlers. Fats are known as triglycerides, both in food and in the body and they are the storage and transport form of fats.

y Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are basic part of food ration.The term is most common in biochemistry, where it is a
synonym of saccharide. The carbohydrates (saccharides) are divided into four chemical groupings:monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. In general, the monosaccharides and disaccharides, which are smaller (lowermolecular weight) carbohydrates, are [1] commonly referred to as sugars. The wordsaccharide comes from the Greek word (skkharon), meaning "sugar". Carbohydrates perform numerous roles in living things. Polysaccharides serve for the storage of energy (e.g., starch and glycogen), and as structural components (e.g., cellulose in plants and chitin in arthropods). The 5-carbon monosaccharide ribose is an important component ofcoenzymes (e.g., ATP, FAD, and NAD) and the backbone of the genetic molecule known as RNA. The related deoxyribose is a component of DNA. Saccharides and their derivatives include many other important biomolecules that play key roles in [2] the immune system, fertilization, preventing pathogenesis, blood clotting, and development. Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates in that they cannot be hydrolyzed to smaller carbohydrates. They are aldehydes or ketones with two or more hydroxyl groups.

o Food sources

fruits, sweets, soft drinks, breads, pastas, beans, potatoes, bran, rice, and cereals.

Conclusion:
Food plays very vital role in maintaining proper health and also helps in prevention and cure of diseases . Good nutritive food makes health ,but at the same time bad or unhealthy food give rise to several diseases. Our cells , tissues and all organs works properly only with nutritious food which we eat .We should take that food which fulfills the daily requirements of protein, vitamins , fats & carbohydrates.
