Nutrition: Nutrients and Dietitian’s Role
Nutrition is the study of how food influences the body’s health. Food is necessary for survival; it offers critical nutrients and aids in the body’s function and health maintenance. Food contains macronutrients such as protein, carbohydrate, and fat that provide calories to fuel the body and provide energy and play specialized roles in health maintenance. Additionally, food provides micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and phytochemicals, which do not provide calories but perform many vital functions in the body..
