Nutrition Program - BIO\|ANALOGICS



HEALTH MANAGEMENT

NUTRITION PROGRAM

Your personal nutrition program has been scientifically designed to provide a balance of nutrients to fuel your body for optimal health and performance. You will lose excess body fat, feel better, look better and have more energy.

THIS IS NOT A DIET. Diets don't work because they involve deprivation and unnatural eating patterns that can't be sustained. You can achieve weight loss and positive body composition changes through this program, but you will be following a balanced and healthy eating program, which you will learn to incorporate into your lifestyle for lasting results.

Changing old habits is hard work. But your personal nutrition program makes it easy to follow a healthy eating pattern while giving you the freedom to make your own food choices. This program uses a food exchange system, which provides a blueprint for you to follow. Use the food lists on the following pages along with your personalized nutrition printouts to design your daily menus. If you don't understand the exchange systems at first, simply follow the suggested menus until you are comfortable with using the food lists to create you own menus.

EXCHANGE LISTS

CARBOHYDRATES

Carbohydrates -- fruits, vegetables, grains, breads and cereals -- are the foundation of a healthy diet. Carbohydrates are not fattening. They provide energy to fuel your body, plus vitamins, minerals and fiber.

FRUITS

Key Points:

1. Choose fresh fruit rather than juice for increased fiber.

2. When choosing juice, drink only pure juice with no sugar or refined sweeteners.

3. For fruits not listed below, assume a serving of fruit is:

1/3 to 1/2 cup of fresh fruit juice

1/4 cup of dried fruit

1 small or medium fresh fruit

1 Exchange: (approximately 60 calories per exchange) 20g carbs, 0g fat, 0g protein

1 apple 1 peach (1/2 c. canned)

4 apricots (medium, raw) 1c. papaya

½ c. apricots (canned) 2 plums

1/2 banana 1/2 pomegranate

3/4 c. berries 1 small pear (1/2 c. canned)

1/3 cantaloupe (1 cup cubes) 3/4 c. Pineapple (1/3 c. canned)

2 ½ dates (medium) 3 prunes (medium)

1/2 grapefruit (3/4 c. segments) 2 Tbsp. raisins

15 grapes (small) 1 ¼ c. strawberries (raw, whole)

1 c. honeydew (1/8 melon) 2 tangerines 1 cup strawberries

1 kiwi (large) 1 1/4c. watermelon

1 orange

VEGETABLES

Key Points:

1. Choose fresh or frozen vegetables rather than canned vegetables.

2. Eat at least some of your vegetables raw.

3 Steam or microwave vegetables to preserve nutrients and flavor.

4. Include dark green and deep orange vegetables several times per week.

5. Starchy vegetables (corn, peas, potatoes) are counted as Starch exchanges.

1 Exchange: (approximately 25 calories per exchange) 5g. Carbs, 2g. Protein, 0g. fat

1 cup raw or ½ cup cooked vegetables or vegetable juice

asparagus mushrooms, cooked

bean sprouts onions

beets peppers (green)

broccoli turnips

brussels sprouts eggplant

carrots spinach, cooked

cauliflower tomatoes (1 large)

greens water chestnuts

leeks zucchini, cooked

STARCHES

Key Points:

1. Use whole grains whenever possible.

2. Choose cereals with little or no added sugar (2 grams or less per serving).

3. Include legumes -- beans and peas -- several times per week.

1 Exchange Equals: (approximately 80 calories per exchange)

Cereals: 1-1/2 c. puffed cereals

1/2 c. flaked cereals

1/3 c. concentrated bran cereals (bran buds)

3 Tbsp. nugget cereals (grape nuts)

1/2 c. cooked hot cereal (oatmeal or cream of wheat)

Snack Foods: 3/4 oz. pretzels

3 graham crackers

3 c. air-popped popcorn

2-4 slices whole wheat crackers (3/4 oz)

PROTEINS

Key Points:

1. Choose lean meats, skin-free poultry or fish.

2. You do not need to avoid red meat as long as it is lean. Red meat is a good source of iron and zinc -- minerals which many people do not consume enough of.

3. If you choose to avoid animal meat, you can use low fat cheeses, eggs and legumes to meet your protein needs.

4. Use cooking methods that don't add fat: baking, broiling or grilling. Use wine or broth for poaching and stir-frying.

1 Exchange Equals: (55 to 100 calories) (See following pages)

1 oz. meat, poultry or fish (lowfat cooked)

1 oz. hard cheese (1" x 1" cube)

1/4 c. cottage or ricotta cheese

1/4 c. tuna (packed in water)

4 oz. tofu

Examples of common serving sizes are:

2 oz. = 1 chicken leg or thigh

1/2 c. low fat cottage cheese or water-packed tuna

1/2 of chicken breast

3 oz. = 1 med. pork chop

Poultry: Chicken, Cornish hen, turkey (without skin).

Fish: All fresh or frozen fish, water-packed tuna.

Cheese: Nonfat or low fat cottage cheese, diet cheeses.

Other: Egg whites or egg substitute, legumes.

DAIRY PRODUCTS / SUBSTITUTES

Key Points:

1. Dairy products provide calcium and protein, but can be high in fat.

2. Use low fat or nonfat dairy products whenever possible.

3. Tofu and most cheeses are high in fat and should be used in moderation.

1 c. low fat or nonfat soy milk*

*Low in calcium. Use in moderation along with calcium-rich foods or include a calcium supplement.

BEVERAGES

Caffeine and alcohol are not encouraged but may be consumed in moderation. Fruit and vegetable juices and post-work-out beverages such as the Break Through Energy Drink provide calories and are included in your food exchanges.

1. Drink at least eight glasses of water every day.

2. You may include up to two caffeinated beverages per day (coffee, tea, soda).

3. You may include up to two alcoholic drinks per week. (If you consume more than this, your wellness coordinator will adjust your meal plan accordingly.) One drink contains about 100 calories and is equal to: 8 oz. beer, 12 oz. light beer, 4 oz. wine, or 1-1/2 oz. hard liquor.

4. You may also include the following non-caloric beverages:

Diet soda (in moderation), Decaffeinated coffee or Herbal tea.

FATS

Key Points:

1. All fats are high in calories and should be consumed in moderation.

2. Cutting your fat intake is the single most important dietary change you can make.

3. Eating a low fat diet allows you to consume more calories while losing weight and body fat. (Use sparingly)

1 Exchange Equals: (approximately 45 calories per exchange) 5g. fat

1 tsp. margarine or butter

EXCHANGES FOR COMBINATION FOODS

Not all foods fall exactly into one exchange list or another. Many of the foods we eat are combination foods. Use the following guide to count the exchanges of the combination foods in your diet.

Bean burrito: 2 burrito = 4 starch, 2 protein, 2 fat

Casseroles: 1 cup = 2 starch, 2 protein, 2 fat

Cheese pizza: 1/4 of 10" pizza = 2 starch, 2 protein, 1 fat

Chili with beans: 1 cup = 2 starch, 2 protein, 2 fat

Garden burger (with bun): 1 item = 3 starch 1 protein

Macaroni and cheese: 1 cup = 2 starch, 1 protein, 2 fat

Spaghetti: 1 cup = 2 starch, 1 protein, 1 fat

Soup: Chunky

or bean :type 1 cup = 2 starch, 1 protein, 1 vegetable

Cream 1 cup = 1 starch 2 fat

Chicken Nuggets 6 nuggets = 1 starch, 2 protein, 2 fat

A DOZEN SNACK IDEAS

Since fat takes twice as long to digest as carbohydrates or protein, low fat eating usually means eating more often. If your personal nutrition plan calls for snacks, you'll probably want to get used to snack packing. One trip to a vending machine can undermine all of the healthy food choices you make during the day. The following snack suggestions can be packed along with you in a cooler, lunch box, briefcase or brown bag.

1. 2 oz low fat cheese 2 protein (or dairy)

4 Ry-Krisp crackers 1 starch

1 c. assorted raw vegetables 1 vegetable

2. 1 apple 1 fruit

4 ak-mak crackers 1 starch

1 Tbsp. peanut butter 1 protein

3. 1/2 C. fruit salad 1 fruit

1 oz. rice cakes 1 starch

4. 7/8 oz. Health Valley Fat-Free

Cookies (6 small or 2 large) 1 starch + 1 fruit

5. 2 Tbsp. raisins 1 fruit

12 almonds 2 fat

6. 1 Fiber (Natural Nectar) 1 starch + 1 fat

7. 1 c. assorted raw vegetables 1 vegetable

2 Tbsp. low-calorie ranch dressing (dip) 1 fat

8. 2 oz. Guiltless Gourmet tortilla chips 2 starch

1/4 c. salsa 1/2 vegetable

9. 2 fig bars 1 starch + 1 fruit

1 apple 1 fruit

10. 3 c. air-popped popcorn 1 starch

READING

AND

USING FOOD LABELS

Nutrition Facts on food labels can help you with food choices. These labels are required by law for most foods and are based on standard serving sizes. However, these serving sizes may not always be the same as the serving sizes in this booklet.

Check the serving size on the label. Is it nearly the same size as the food exchange? You may need to adjust the size of the serving to fit your meal plan.

Look at the grams of carbohydrate in the serving size. (One starch, fruit, milk, or other carbohydrate has about 15 grams of carbohydrate.) So, if 1 cup of cereal has 30 grams of carbohydrate, it will count as 2 starch choices in your meal plan. You may need to adjust the size of the serving so it contains the number of carbohydrate choices you have for a meal or a snack.

Look at the grams of protein in the serving size. (One meat choice has 7 grams of protein.) If the food has more than 7 grams of protein in a serving, you can figure out the number of meat choices by dividing the grams of protein by 7. Meats generally contain fat, too.

Look at the grams of fat in the serving size. (One fat choice has 5 grams of fat.) If one waffle has 15 grams of carbohydrate and 5 grams of fat, it counts as 1 starch choice and 1 fat choice.

Look at the number of calories in the serving size. If there are less than 20 calories per serving, it is a free food. However, if it has more than 20 calories, follow the steps listed above to count the food choices.

Ask your dietitian for help using information on food labels. Some food labels may also give exchanges. These are based on information in this booklet.

The following “sample” label is provided for you to practice reading a food label before you get to the super market.
