Nutrition

Nutrition is the process by which living organisms obtain and utilize food to support growth, maintenance, and overall health. It involves the intake of essential nutrients, including macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals), which are critical for various bodily functions. Nutrition can impact energy levels, bodily functions, disease prevention, and overall well-being. It is studied in various contexts, including human health, agriculture, and dietetics, and can involve the evaluation of dietary patterns and the effects of different foods on health outcomes. Proper nutrition is vital for maintaining a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
