Presentation on the topic of dietary supplements: useful and harmful. Presentation on the topic "dietary supplements". Biologically active food additives

Slide 2

“Food can be characterized as an extremely complex chemical complex containing thousands of major and hundreds of thousands of minor components capable of exerting pronounced and varied physiological effects.”

(Academician A.N. Nesmeyanov)

Slide 3

Dietary supplements are biologically active substances of plant, animal and mineral origin that affect important regulatory, metabolic and protective functions of the body.

Slide 4

What are dietary supplements?

Slide 5

A prominent specialist in the field of nutritional biochemistry, Professor A.A. Pokrovsky wrote that

“food is a source of rather complex pharmacological effects and a carrier of biologically active substances.”

Slide 6

Biologically active food additives

  • Nutraceuticals
  • Parapharmaceuticals
  • Slide 7

    • Nutraceuticals are biologically active substances that are the main components of the body: vitamins or their precursors, macro- and microelements (iron, calcium, selenium, zinc, fluorine, etc.), polyunsaturated fatty acids, essential amino acids, some mono- and disaccharides, dietary fibers used to correct the chemical composition of human food.
    • Parapharmaceuticals - have a certain pharmacological activity and are used for prevention, auxiliary therapy and support of the functional activity of organs and systems. These include bioflavonoids, alkaloids, glycosides, organic acids, essential oils, polysaccharides, that is, these are preparations of plant and animal origin or their synthetic analogues - the so-called “natural products”.
  • Slide 8

    The main groups of biologically active nutrients that protect our health:

    • vitamin-like substances
    • vitamin precursors,
    • water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins,
    • macro- and microelements,
    • complex carbohydrates,
    • unsaturated fatty acids,
    • phospholipids,
    • digestive enzymes,
    • alimentary fiber,
    • beneficial intestinal microorganisms,
    • organic acids,
    • organic sulfides,
    • bioflavonoids,
    • alkaloids,
    • catechins,
    • glycosides,
    • indoles,
    • isothiocyanates,
    • coumarins,
    • essential oils,
    • terpenes,
    • tannins

    “Each of us needs 90 nutritional supplements: 60 minerals, 16 vitamins, 14 essential amino acids - otherwise diseases caused by their deficiency will develop,” says Dr. Wallock (USA). And every nutrition and medical specialist agrees with his opinion. Dietary supplements (BAA) are the simplest and most reliable way to make your food complete and your health strong. But often our ignorance and prejudices deprive us of this advantage.

    Slide 10

    Micronutrientology is a promising health-improving and preventive scientific and practical direction, actively developing at the intersection of two important areas of medicine - pharmacology and dietetics, integrating the tasks of vitaminology, the doctrine of the biological role of microelements, biologically active substances and aimed at the use of physiological, protective and therapeutic-prophylactic the effects of various micronutrients on the vital functions of a healthy and sick body.

    LESSON ON THE TOPIC: “DIET SUPPLEMENTS”
    (slide 1)

    Objectives: to reveal the significance of biological additives that affect important regulatory, metabolic and protective functions of the body, to determine their significance for human health, to study the composition of some biological additives and to determine the degree of environmental risk of their use.
    Equipment: handouts, computer, projector, dietary supplements
    During the classes
    Frontal conversation

    Teacher's opening speech. We are accustomed to the fact that each product has its own unique taste and smell.
    Questions for the class: what helped humanity to identify among many substances those that are suitable for food? (Suggested answer: sense organs). What senses did people use to find the right products and determine the freshness and quality of food? (Suggested answer: through taste and smell).
    Teacher's comment. It is by taste sensations that a person determines whether a product is edible or whether it is better not to eat it. This has always been the case, but not today. We live in a time of introduction of new food technologies, when any product can be given the desired consistency, taste, smell and even set shelf life.
    Question to the class: do you know what biological additives are? (Suggested answer: food supplements contain substances necessary to maintain normal functioning).
    Teacher's comment. Dietary supplements are biologically active substances of plant, animal and mineral origin that affect important regulatory, metabolic and protective functions of the body. (slide 2)
    Professor I. I. Brekhman spoke back in 1978 about the healing significance of biologically active substances obtained from plants and marine organisms. Based on his own, largely new, materials, he substantiated the need for the development of a new direction in medicine - the pharmacology of health and transitional pre-morbid states of the body. It turned out that the state of health also needed “treatment,” but not with the help of typical pharmacological drugs, but with the help of natural substances of plant and animal origin.
    Similar ideas about the pharmacological significance of food products were substantiated in those same years by a prominent specialist in the field of nutritional biochemistry, Professor A. A. Pokrovsky (slide 3).
    Question for the class: what are dietary supplements most often found in? (Suggested answer: powders, tablets, capsules).
    Teacher's addition. They are obtained from natural, including food, products using high technologies in concentrated form, in a form convenient for consumption and for long-term storage: dragees, dry and liquid extracts, teas, syrups, infusions, concentrates from plant, animal or mineral raw materials , as well as chemical and biotechnological methods.
    Student report (approximate) Ancient folk medicine has long used the healing properties of nutrients of plant, mineral and animal origin with considerable success. Notice how modern the words of the great ancient physician Hippocrates, expressed by him more than 2500 years ago, sound today: “Let your food be your medicine, and food be your medicine.” At the same time, it is known what significant successes Hippocrates achieved in the treatment of many diseases, using mainly the medicinal properties of food, massage and physical exercise. Let us also note that almost every four or five pages of Avicenna’s famous “Canon of Medical Science” the medicinal value of “medicinal food” is mentioned. As for the ancient treatises of traditional Chinese medicine, almost the main place in them is given to the healing effects of various nutrients of plant, animal and mineral origin. If we delve even further into ancient times, measured in hundreds of thousands and millions of years, it turns out that the medicines for primitive man were the same natural substances and products that he ate: plants, their roots, leaves, stems, fruits and various remains organs and tissues of animals (which, from the point of view of our ideas, are often considered generally inedible), as well as minerals and peat soil. The latter has been repeatedly confirmed in our time in cases of discovery of human tribes isolated from the outside world, leading a primitive way of life. Fortunately, the ancient secrets of the healing and health-improving effects of natural substances from plant and animal foods have become common knowledge and are often preserved in their original form in ancient Eastern (in particular, ancient Chinese, ancient Indian and Tibetan) medicine.
    Teacher's addition. It is no coincidence that both in Western countries and in Russia there is an increasing interest in the methods and means of oriental medicine. This interest is further spurred by the continuing increase in cases of various toxic and allergic complications in people due to their use of modern synthetic drugs, which, according to the World Health Organization, currently reaches 15-20% (!). As paradoxical as it may sound, today it has become quite common to use terms such as “medicinal disease” or “damage due to treatment.” Moreover, these terms have steadily entered into official medicine (Drug Disease, 1973).
    Question for the class: are biological additives and food additives identical?
    (Suggested answers: yes, no).
    Teacher's comment. Biologically active food additives cannot be identified with food additives, which are dyes, antioxidants, emulsifiers, corrective substances that change the properties of products, but do not have biological activity. Biologically active food additives are divided into two groups (slides 4,5).
    There are main groups of biologically active nutrients that protect our health (slide 6)
    Question for the class: what are biologically active food additives used for? (Suggested answers: to most quickly compensate for the deficiency of biologically active substances supplied with food, reduce the calorie content of the diet, regulate body weight, satisfy the physiological needs for nutrients of a sick person)
    Teacher's additions. That’s right, and also to select the most optimal ratio of nutrients and energy substances for each individual person, taking into account gender, age, energy consumption, physiological needs, which meets the basic principles of a balanced diet and is traditional for domestic dietetics; increasing the body’s nonspecific reaction to the effects of adverse environmental factors; prevention of metabolic disorders and the occurrence of associated chronic diseases; restoration of the body’s weakened immune system; normalization of the composition and functioning of saprophytic intestinal microflora.

    (slide 7) “Each of us needs 90 nutritional supplements: 60 minerals, 16 vitamins, 14 essential amino acids - otherwise diseases caused by their deficiency will develop,” says Dr. Wallock (USA). And every nutrition and medical specialist agrees with his opinion. Dietary supplements (BAA) are the simplest and most reliable way to make your food complete and your health strong. But often our ignorance and prejudices deprive us of this advantage.
    Student report “Historical Reversals”
    Try to guess what it is: “An ornamental flower; a cure for all diseases; a poison that exterminates insects; a stain remover; a universal fertilizer; food raw materials from which you can make bread, starch, powder, oil, wine, coffee, yeast, chocolate etc.". (children guess, if not, then the student answers himself) It's simple! We are talking about the most ordinary potatoes. With this kind of advertising, Russian journalists of the late 18th century debunked myths about the dangers of this vegetable.
    Until the end of the 18th century, another terribly poisonous vegetable was considered... a tomato! They even tried to poison the first American president, George Washington. This happened in 1776, at the height of the struggle of the North American colonies of England for independence. Cook James Bestley, bribed by the British, served George Washington a roast, richly decorated with tomatoes, for dinner. Fortunately, the vegetable “didn’t work,” and after this meal the president lived for another 23 years full of significant events.
    Today these stories seem like curiosities. Every child knows about the benefits of potatoes and tomatoes as “twice two”. Apparently, this is how it is in the history of mankind, in the words of the poet: “Big things are seen from a distance...”.
    Nowadays, through the same thorns (but definitely to the stars!) lies the path of dietary supplements - dietary supplements. Their main mission is to make our nutrition complete and prevent the development of many, even the most dangerous diseases.
    Teacher's addition. But how often our ignorance and prejudices prevent them from doing this! Let's try together to understand the myths that have developed around dietary supplements.
    Student reports (dietary supplement: myth or chance of survival) (approximate).
    MYTH ONE:
    "A dietary supplement is anything that is of plant or natural origin and that can be added to food"
    This is not entirely true. And in some cases it’s not like that at all! For example, the king of Ancient Babylon Nebuchadnezzar, in order to restore health and clarity of mind, ate exclusively herbs for 7 years.
    But in order to improve your health, and not harm yourself, you need to be an expert in the field of “herbs and roots,” since not all plants are safe or suitable for general use. There are a lot of natural components that are strictly prohibited from being included in dietary supplements.
    The healing properties of the plants that make up dietary supplements have been tested not only in scientific laboratories, but also by the experience of entire generations of different peoples of the world.

    MYTH TWO:
    “It’s enough to eat right, and no supplements are needed.”
    It would seem that we all love to eat! You tune out bad thoughts and feed yourself spoon after spoon. What could be simpler? But here’s the paradox... To make this one of the most natural and enjoyable activities also useful, you also need to work hard.
    Remember, for example, with what longing you look at the columns of products offered by the latest fashionable healthy eating plan. These are either not found in every store, or they are so depressing with their low calorie content that just thinking about them makes your stomach shrink.
    And this is where dietary supplements come to the rescue; they make any ordinary menu complete and balanced. Plant, animal and mineral components saturate the usual food with all the necessary vitamins, acids and other useful and nutritious elements.

    MYTH THIRD:
    “Medicines are still more effective than dietary supplements (dietary supplements are not capable of having the same effect as medicine)”
    In this case, the mistake lies in the very formulation of the question. Dietary supplements and medications do not have to be rivals. The difference is in how they act.
    In Ancient Greece, doctors worked under the auspices of Asclepius, the god of medicine. The healers served the daughter of Asclepius - the bright Hygieia, the goddess of health.
    Followers of Asclepius believed that the role of a doctor is to treat illness and restore health. The servants of Hygieia believed that health is the natural state of man. In their opinion, the most important task of medicine is to follow the laws of nature, which allow a person to have a healthy body and a healthy mind.
    The concepts of treatment and healing are fundamentally different. Treatment comes from without, healing comes from within. The word “heal” means “to make whole,” to restore integrity and balance in the body.
    Dietary supplements, unlike medications, eliminate not the symptoms of the disease, but its causes. Supplements are food components that help improve the health of the body and facilitate its natural physiological processes.

    MYTH FOUR:
    “I’ll take the supplement and I’ll be healthy in a week.”
    A misconception whose depth cannot be measured with a school ruler.
    Firstly, dietary supplements alone are not enough to become healthy. The environment, daily routine, regular physical activity, stress-free life, etc. are important.
    Secondly, the body needs time to rebuild. About 7-10 days after taking the dietary supplement, you will feel better. The body will be delighted: “Hurray! Now I get more nutritious and healthy food.” Recuperation begins. When there are enough of them, the next stage begins - “restructuring”, or debugging the work of internal organs. This is a very difficult time for the body. After all, he almost forgot what healthy habits are! Therefore, at this stage of taking dietary supplements, there may be weakness and decreased performance, even malaise. The body’s forces are aimed at this moment at restoring human health. Then you will feel good again. And within a month and a half you will feel the desired result: your body will become stronger and healthier.

    MYTH FIFTH:
    "The bigger, the better"
    Popular wisdom says: “Everything is good in moderation.”
    Although there are not enough useful and nutrients in food, they are still there. It is not necessary to immediately take a “shock” dose of dietary supplements. An excess of vitamins or other beneficial substances is just as harmful to the body as their deficiency. Therefore, the recommendations for the use of dietary supplements give the most optimal dosages, which will provide the body of an adult and a child with everything necessary every day. There are practically no contraindications to taking dietary supplements. However, we should not forget that the body of a child, a pregnant or lactating woman and a sick person requires a special approach. Therefore, be attentive to contraindications (if any) and, of course, always tell a consultant about the special condition of your body.
    No matter how much you “feed” yourself myths about dietary supplements, this activity will still not add either wisdom or health. Maybe we should look at the world more realistically? If you don’t waste your time on idle speculation and start today giving your body what it really needs, you will enjoy health, well-being in your personal life and success in any business.
    Practical work
    Teacher. Let's look at some dietary supplements and figure out what they are needed for.
    The teacher draws the students’ attention to the handout “Biological Additives” (Appendix No. 1) and invites them to discuss the questions in groups (students work in groups of 4-5 people):
    What are the advantages of using dietary supplements?
    What is included in this or that dietary supplement?
    For what purpose are dietary supplements used?
    Teacher. We live at a time when, at the junction of two important and main sections of therapeutic and preventive medicine - diet therapy and pharmacology, a third direction of human health has taken shape and is rapidly developing, which is associated with the therapeutic and preventive use of biologically active substances in food and which is called micronutrientology (slide 8 ).
    Students are asked, working in groups, to justify data from scientific studies of the health status of the country's population and the prevalence of essential micronutrient deficiencies and draw a conclusion or conclusions (see Appendix 2). (Suggested answers: dietary supplements are a necessary element of healthy and preventive human nutrition in the 21st century, dietary supplements are necessary in every family and every person, dietary supplements are necessary for a person every day and throughout life, the need for dietary supplements is enormous and their consumption will only increase in the future.)
    Consider table No. 1 “Normal physiological daily requirements for nutrients and energy for the adult population” and answer the questions:
    - Does any product contain all the necessary nutrients?;
    - Is the daily requirement the same for men and women?;
    - if a nutrient is needed in minimal quantities, can it not be consumed at all?
    Final words from the teacher. Our food is not only a supplier of calories, fats, proteins and carbohydrates, but also a source of hundreds and thousands of vital biologically active substances, which, although contained in food in milligrams and even micrograms, nevertheless have a pronounced restorative, preventive effect on the human body. , protective, cleansing effect, normalize basic metabolic processes and regulate many vital functions of the body. In the standard diet of most people, the content of basic essential biologically active nutrients is clearly insufficient, which leads to their deficiency in the body, and this, in turn, predisposes to the development or worsening of most diseases of the cardiovascular, skeletal and endocrine systems, gastrointestinal tract. intestinal tract and liver, immunological deficiency, malignant tumors, metabolic disorders, obesity, etc., which together determine up to 80% of the total morbidity of the population. According to the Institute of Nutrition of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, no more than 3% of the Russian population takes dietary supplements daily, while in Europe - no less than 50%, in the USA - 80%, in Japan - 90%.
    I would like to finish our lesson with you with the words of Academician of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor V. A. Tutelyan: “The use of dietary supplements is the fastest and most effective way to solve people’s health problems. We all need dietary supplements as a chance for survival. They help not not only to preserve, but also to restore health.”

    APPENDIX No. 2
    Key data from scientific studies of the health status of the country's population and the prevalence of essential micronutrient deficiencies:
    70-90% of various population groups have vitamin C deficiency.
    40-80% of the population is deficient in B vitamins and folic acid.
    40-60% of the population has vitamin A deficiency.
    20-30% of the population has vitamin B12 deficiency.
    20-30% of the population has vitamin E deficiency.
    0-55% of the population has a deficiency of the most important macro- and microelements (iron, calcium, fluorine, selenium, iodine, etc.), which leads to the development of various and widespread diseases: anemia, osteoporosis, caries, congenital defects of cartilage and bones, dystrophic heart damage, thyroid dysfunction and slow physical and mental development.
    Almost 65% of the population is in a state of chronic psycho-emotional stress, which accelerates the development of many diseases: psycho-emotional disorders, neuroses, coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, arterial hypertension, gastric and intestinal ulcers.
    35% of the population exhibits manifestations of immunological deficiency, which predisposes to the development of acute and chronic inflammatory processes, infectious diseases, malignant tumors, etc.
    30-40% of men suffer from decreased sexual activity.
    About 40% of women suffer from painful manifestations of menopause, which is often accompanied by vegetative-vascular and hormonal disorders, neurotic conditions, osteoporosis, accelerated development of atherosclerosis and arterial hypertension.
    Finally, almost 60% of the population constantly lives in conditions of the harmful effects of a polluted environment, which contributes to the accumulation of various toxic substances in the human body, pollution of the internal environment of the body and, as a result, a predisposition to various diseases and immunodeficiency states.

      Food additives – benefit or harm? Completed by: Pupils of class 11 “a” Chernysh Maria Borisova Polina Supervisor: Rubtsova L.M. Ministry of General and Professional Education of the Sverdlovsk Region. Educational Administration of the Bogdanovich Urban District. Municipal government educational institution - secondary school 4.




      Objectives: 1. To study the diet of students of MKOU - secondary school 4; 2. Identify the most consumed products; 3.Check products for the presence of food additives they contain; 4. Identify the harm of using food additives. 5.learn to identify beneficial and harmful food additives in food


      Food additives, chemicals added to food to improve taste, increase nutritional value, or prevent spoilage. The need for them has especially increased recently due to the increasing demand for more nutritious and more convenient food products.


      History Dietary supplements are not a new invention. Even in ancient times, people used additives such as salt, sugar, vinegar as spices: mustard seeds, nutmeg, pepper fruits, cumin, bay leaves. All of them increase food safety. Vegetables and turmeric were used as dyes. In the 19th-20th centuries they began to pay special attention. With the development of the chemical and food industries, a great variety of synthetic substitutes have come into use, which are designated by the letter code E on product labels.


      Classification E100-E182 – dyes - enhance or restore the color of the product; E200-E299 – preservatives – increase the shelf life of products, protecting them from microbes and fungi; E300-E399 – antioxidants – protect products from oxidation; E400-E499 – stabilizers - maintain the required consistency of products, thickeners - increase viscosity; E500-E599 - emulsifiers - create a homogeneous mixture, for example, of oil and water; E600-E699 - flavor and aroma enhancers; E700 - E800 - spare indexes; E900-E999 – defoamers - prevent or reduce the formation of foam, give products a pleasant appearance.


      The most harmful. Sodium nitrite E250 (used in the production of meat products - at high temperatures - during grilling - sodium nitrite turns into a chemically active compound that can cause cancer. Butyloxyanisole E320 (antioxidant - in a variety of products - from vegetable oil to chewing gum and chips .Can cause cancer) Monosodium glutamate E621 (an amino acid that enhances taste, can cause headaches and nausea, and animal studies have shown that MSG can cause damage to nerve cells.


      E128 is a red dye Red 2G with a carcinogenic effect, used in the production of sausages, which gives the product a pink color. has the ability to cause changes in genes - prohibited in Russia. E951 – aspartame – synthetic sweetener. (depletion of serotonin reserves in the cerebral cortex; development of manic depression, panic attacks (with excessive consumption) of chewing gum, carbonated drinks.) Formaldehyde (E-240) can cause cancer.




      Based on the results of testing conducted among students in grades 5-6, the following data were obtained and analyzed:























      The most commonly used products and their composition Dobry juice Pectin, citric acid, E414 (safe), ascorbic acid, Coca cola E290 carbon dioxide (conditionally safe), E150d sugar color IV (conditionally safe), E338 phosphoric acid (harmful) ) Sausage “Doctorskaya” sodium ascorbate, E250


      Mayonnaise "Provencal" E200 sorbic acid (harmless), E412 guar gum (safe), E415 xanthan gum (safe) Chips "Lays" E621 (dangerous), E631 sodium inosinate (safe, but prohibited in the manufacture of baby food), E627 sodium guanylate (dangerous) Chocolate “Alpen Gold” Crackers “Kirieshki” E322 Lecithin (safe), E476 polyglycerin (allowed) E322 Lecithin (safe), E476 polyglycerin (allowed) E621, E631, E627, sodium diacetate (conditionally safe)


      The content of synthetic dyes was detected only in carbonated water. Conclusion: Having examined the products consumed, we came to the conclusion that almost all food products contain food additives. Both beneficial and harmful to health, but if we follow simple advice, we can protect ourselves from the harm they cause.


      Recommendations: 1. Carefully study product labels and choose products that contain a minimum amount of artificial additives. 2. You cannot take risks and take unfamiliar products, especially if the label contains many different E. 3. You must avoid food additives such as dyes, preservatives, thickeners, flavor enhancers, and sugar substitutes. 4. Remember: dyes E121, 123 and preservatives E 216, 217 are officially prohibited in Russia. There are products that do not contain food additives. These are fresh and natural fruits, vegetables, herbs, freshly squeezed juices, fresh meat and fish, honey, homemade jam 6. Eat less flour, sweets, chips, carbonated drinks.
