Nutrition
Combination of processes by which living organisms receive and utilize the materials necessary for growth, maintenance of functions, and repair of component parts
Del Mundo,et al. Textbook of Pediatrics and Child Health

Metabolism
All changes occurring in food from absorption from the GIT until end-products are eliminated by the different excretory organs

Nutritional Requirements
FNRI DOST,NRC RENI
Advisable intake-variable, observed, approximated intake by a group of healthy individuals
Minimum requirement- least amount of nutrient needed for optimum health

RENI
In the Philippines, the revised edition of the dietary standards changed from Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) to Recommended Energy and Nutrient Intake (RENI)
Levels of intake of energy and nutrients which on the basis of current scientific knowledge, are considered:
Adequate for the maintenance of health and well being of nearly all healthy persons
Adequate intake based on the experimentally observed average intake of health individuals

Historical Background
“VITAMINE” (Polish American biochemist, Casimir Funk) an amine (organic base) essential to life
1912, Hopkins and Funk vitamin hypothesis of deficiency
Thiamine

Vitamins
A class of 13 organic compounds “that are essential in small quantities for the normal metabolism of other nutrients and maintenance of physiological well being”*
Help body turn food into energy and tissues
Most prescribed and MOST requested prescription in everyday pediatrics

Functions of Vitamins
Vitamins do not directly yield energy but are required for energy yielding processes in the body
Some are co-factors in enzyme activity.
Some are antioxidants (prevent oxygen from doing damage in the body)
One vitamin (Vit. D) is a prohormone.
![Page 31: Nutrition in Children Florianne Feliza F. Valdes,M.D. Fellow, Philippine Pediatric Society,Inc. Section Head,Ambulatory Pediatrics The Medical City Ateneo](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649e705503460f94b6dc16/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Functions of Vitamins
Normal growth
Maintenance of life
Normal function of the digestive tract
Normal nutrition, especially utilization of mineral elements
Proper oxidation of carbohydrates
Tissue resistance to bacterial infections
Normal reproduction

Functions of Vitamins
Act as catalysts or coenzymes (vit C)
No direct yield of energy but are necessary for some energy-yielding processes in the body (Krebs Cycle)
May vary from species to species
Differ in chemical structure and no common chemical grouping (water and fat soluble)

Charts are useful for Filipinos
CDC promotes one set of growth charts for all racial and ethnic groups.
Racial- and ethnic-specific charts are not recommended because studies support the premise that differences in growth among various racial and ethnic groups are the result of environmental rather than genetic influences.
reference population lacked sufficient numbers of specific racial/ethnic groups to consider separate charts.
factors that affect differences in growth among racial and ethnic groups, if they truly exist, remain unclear and more research is needed

Infant Nutrition: Breastfeeding
![Page 89: Nutrition in Children Florianne Feliza F. Valdes,M.D. Fellow, Philippine Pediatric Society,Inc. Section Head,Ambulatory Pediatrics The Medical City Ateneo](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649e705503460f94b6dc16/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Breastfeeding
breastfeeding is the ideal method of feeding and nurturing infants and recognizes breastfeeding as primary in achieving optimal infant and child health, growth, and development.
![Page 90: Nutrition in Children Florianne Feliza F. Valdes,M.D. Fellow, Philippine Pediatric Society,Inc. Section Head,Ambulatory Pediatrics The Medical City Ateneo](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649e705503460f94b6dc16/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
Benefits of Breastfeeding
health, nutritional, immunologic, developmental, psychological, social, economic, and environmental benefits
![Page 91: Nutrition in Children Florianne Feliza F. Valdes,M.D. Fellow, Philippine Pediatric Society,Inc. Section Head,Ambulatory Pediatrics The Medical City Ateneo](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649e705503460f94b6dc16/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Benefits of Breastfeeding
Significantly decreases risk for a large number of acute and chronic diseases.
Research in the United States, Canada, Europe, and other developed countries, among predominantly middle-class populations, provides strong evidence that human milk feeding decreases the incidence and/or severity of diarrhea lower respiratory infection otitis media bacteremia bacterial meningitis botulism urinary tract infection necrotizing enterocolitis
![Page 92: Nutrition in Children Florianne Feliza F. Valdes,M.D. Fellow, Philippine Pediatric Society,Inc. Section Head,Ambulatory Pediatrics The Medical City Ateneo](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649e705503460f94b6dc16/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
Breastfeeding benefits
possible protective effect of human milk feeding against sudden infant death syndrome
Prevents insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus Crohn's disease ulcerative colitis Lymphoma allergic diseases other chronic digestive diseases
Breastfeeding has also been related to possible enhancement of cognitive development
![Page 93: Nutrition in Children Florianne Feliza F. Valdes,M.D. Fellow, Philippine Pediatric Society,Inc. Section Head,Ambulatory Pediatrics The Medical City Ateneo](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649e705503460f94b6dc16/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Health Benefits for Mothers
-Increases levels of oxytocin-less postpartum bleeding ,rapid uterine involution
-Lactational amenorrhea - Earlier return to prepregnant weight- Delayed resumption of ovulation with increased
child spacing -Improved bone remineralization postpartum -With reduction in hip fractures in the
postmenopausal period-Reduced risk of ovarian cancer and
premenopausal breast cancer

Socio economic benefits
In addition to individual health benefits, breastfeeding provides significant social and economic benefits to the nation, including reduced health care costs and reduced employee absenteeism for care attributable to child illness.
