Macronutrients - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. cardiovascular disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes
  2. easiest macronutrient for the body to break down and use for energy
  3. increases high density lipoproteins [HDL] or ‘good cholesterol’
  4. prevents constipation, provides a feeling of fullness and reduces cholestrol levels
  5. Found in all foods of plant origin, fibre is not absorbed by the body. Rather, it travels through the digestive system, acting like a cleaner as it moves
  6. hardest nutrient for the body to break down and use for energy
  7. Helps to build, maintain and repair body cells. Can be used as a secondary source of energy.
  8. a unit for measuring energy intake or expenditure
  9. The main function of this nutrient is to provide fuel for the body
  10. nutrients that are required by the body in large amounts
  11. These nutrients increase cholesterol levels in the blood and can therefore contribute to cardiovascular disease in the long term.
  12. Assist in lowering low density lipoproteins [LDL], or ‘bad cholesterol’
  13. CAN be synthesised (made up) in the body from other amino acids.
  14. as a medium for all chemical reactions required to provide energy, required for hydration
  15. required for development and maintenance of cell membranes
  16. CAN’T be synthesised (made up) in the body and therefore need to be consumed.
    CAN’T be synthesised (made up) in the body and therefore need to be consumed.
  17. nutrients that are required by the body in small amounts
