I, Gym P, am always amazed that people do not know the functions that their food items (& nutrients within those food items) play. That said, many adults don't even know what nutrients are derived from certain foods they're eating, despite most being clearly labeled. Below is a list of our key nutrients and the main function that they perform. I covered carbohydrates in brief on my lost post, and will cover the remainder in more detail in periodic future posts. If you require further information in the meantime, please CLICK HERE to visit the Gym Professor website.
Protein – repair & growth of tissue
Carbohydrate – primary energy source
Fat – secondary energy source
Vitamins & Minerals – regulate metabolic processes.
Water – transportation of other nutrients
