Nutrition is the study of nutrients in food, how the body uses nutrients, and the relationship between diet and health.

Food provides the energy and nutrients you need to be healthy. Nutrients include proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water. Healthy eating is not hard. The key is to eat a variety of foods, including vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain products.
