Sand itself does not contain nutritional value as it is primarily composed of mineral particles, such as quartz, and lacks the organic matter and essential nutrients that plants and animals require. While it may provide some structural benefits in certain ecosystems, such as aiding drainage and preventing soil compaction, it does not contribute to the nutritional needs of living organisms. Therefore, sand is not considered a source of nutrition.
