The nutrient that repairs and builds body tissue is protein. I've seen people say that vitamin C repairs and builds body tissue, but Vitamin C is not a nutrient in the protein category. Vitamin C would be under the nutrient category "vitamins". There are six major nutrient categories. They are:
- Protiens
- Fats
- Carbohydrates
- Water
- Vitamins
- Minerals
All of the minor nutrients in the protein category can help repair and build up body tissue. For more information on this topic, send me a message. I am a scientist, after all.
