•
The nutrients are:

Proteins - essential to growth and repair of muscle and other body tissues
•
Fats - one source of energy and important in relation to fat soluble vitamins

Carbohydrates - our main source of energy
•
Minerals - those inorganic elements occurring in the body and which are critical to its
normal functions
•
Vitamins - water and fat soluble vitamins play important roles in many chemical processes
in the body
•
Water - essential to normal body function - as a vehicle for carrying other nutrients and
because 60% of the human body is water
•
Roughage - the fibrous indigestible portion of our diet essential to health of the digestive
system
