Carbohydrates: They supply us with the main source of energy to function and perform any action.
Fats: They are the most concentrated source of energy in the diet, able to help us absorb vitamins, and protect organs.
Protein: It is our primary building material which helps in the growth and development of all body tissues - muscles, blood, skin, hair, and internal organs.
Vitamins: They work together with enzymes allowing cells to continue to work by initiating chemical reactions.
Minerals: They are necessary for biological reactions to take place in the human body (like muscle response, message sending in the nervous system, digestion, and the metabolism of nutrients).
Water: It is the primary substance that surrounds and is within all of the living cells of our body. It is absolutely necessary for digestion, respiration, waste removal, and temperature regulation. Human beings can live for roughly 5 weeks without protein, carbohydrates, and fats. We can only live for 5 days without water.
