Nutrients are elements or compounds that are vital for human growth, development and functioning. Macronutrients, which are protein, fat and carbohydrates, provide energy, but also have other roles. You need large amounts of these nutrients on a daily basis. Micronutrients, required in lesser amounts, are vitamins and minerals that are vital components of biological processes occurring throughout your body. Having a balanced diet and eating a variety of foods from all food groups ensures that you get all the nutrients you need each day.
