Nutrition is the science of how the body processes food. In fact, nutrition is life. All living things, including you, need food and water to live. Beyond that, you need healthy food - meaning food containing healthy nutrients to live.

Nutrients are substances necessary for proper bodily function. Some are required in large quantities (macronutrients) and some are required in small quantities (micronutrients).
