Nutrition
Nutrition is the process by which the body uses food to sustain
life, to grow, to be active, and for normal functioning of
every organ and tissue. Adequate nutrition is also important
for psychological well-being. The nutrients in the foods we
eat are essential to sustain health and life. There are more
than fifty essential nutrients each one plays a special role
in the body. No one food can provide all these nutrients.
Healthy eating is not dieting or low calorie food choices.
Deprivation is not normal and is not healthy. Healthy eating
provides energy and nutrients to the body. The foods we eat
are to provide our bodies energy for healthy functioning.
Energy is derived from the macronutrients: fat, carbohydrates
and protein. Micronutrients vitamins and minerals are substances
required in small quantities which are essential for many
body functions. Water is also considered an essential nutrient.
The basics of nutrition is balance variety and moderation.
