CHO and Fibre

Question	Answer
CHO requirements ______ during lactation	increases
Increases in CHO requirements are seen during lactation because..	there is a higher respiratory quotient and rates of CHO utilization
The increase in glucose utilization is under _____ sensitivity	hormonal
Increased sensitivity to ____ under hormonal influence of lactation of _______ to _____	- insulin - mammary gland - glucose
The increased sensitivity may be a protective mechanism for	insulin resistance
insulin resistance is protected by increased insulin sensitivity because..	the sensitivity on the mammary gland are much increased relative to adipose tissue and other tissues, therefore the mammary gland gets more of the glucose load
insulin secretion at the pancreatic level is increased by	prolactin
The level of sensitivity of the receptors at the _______ level and the ability to secrete insulin at the _______ level are enhanced	- mammary gland - pancreatic
the lactose content of human milk is approximately	74 g/L
lactose concentration changes __________ during the nursing period	very little
precursors for lactose synthesis are ______ and must be _____	- glucose - increased
Increase in CHO must be obtained from	ingested CHO or an increased supply of AA to prevent utilization of lactating woman's endogenous proteins for glucose production
Glycerol derived from endogenous or exogenous fat may contribute to ____ production of ______ through ________	- increased - glucose - gluconeogenesis
amount of fat that can be oxidized daily greatly _____ the contribution of glycerol to _____ production and thus _____ formation	- limits - glucose - lactose
To lose weight during pregnancy, _____ have to be considered and ensured that they are met during this period	macronutrients
Inadequate ____ or ____ can lead to alterations in body composition	- CHO - protein
During lactation, dietary regimen should be	a mild caloric restriction, in concert with an exercise program
True or False: fibre intake reducing effects on the risk of CHD in lactating is different from nonpregnant	False, there is no evidence of this
Fibre requirements in lactating are ________ compared to non-pregnant, non-lactating	increased
True or False: Thiamin is transferred to daily milk and therefore additional thiamin is needed	True
Women who are breastfeeding older infants may need slightly less thiamin because	there is less milk production since the infants are also eating solid food
True or False: Riboflavin is transferred to the mother's milk each day and therefore additional riboflavin is needed	True
Women who are breastfeeding older infants need ________ riboflavin, in proportion to lower milk volume production	slightly less
The use of riboflavin for ilk production is assumed to be ____% efficient	70%
those breastfeeding more than one infant may need _____ riboflavin	increased
True or False: Niacin is secreted into the mothers milk and therefore additional amounts are needed	True
Women breastfeeding more than one infant need ______ niacin	additional
Converting tryptophan to niacin may contribute to	the large apparent variation in niacin requirements
Biotin is ______ during lactational period	increased
True or False: Distinctions are made for biotin requirements for the stage of lactation	False, no distinction is made
Pantothenic acid content of milk _____ with intake of vitamin	increases
Blood pantothenic acid levels are _____ in lactating women at ______ postpartum and ______ postpartum	- lower - 6 weeks - 3 months
True or False: pantothenic acid intakes are inadequate to support function during lactation	False, there is no evidence of this
Pantothenic acid requirements are ______ during lactation	increased
