HEALTH EDUCATION - NUTRIENTS
Nutrients are molecules in food that all organisms
need to make energy, grow, develop, and reproduce. Nutrients are digested and
then broken down into basic parts to be used by the organism. There are two
main types of nutrients, macronutrients and micronutrients.
The three main categories of macronutrients include carbohydrate, protein, and
fat. The two types of micronutrients are vitamins and minerals, and these are
extra molecules that cells need to make energy.
