Nutrients
 The food you eat is a source of
nutrients. Nutrients are defined as
the substances found in food that keep your
body functioning.
 Your body needs nutrients to…
 Fuel your energy.
 Help you grow.
 Repair itself.
 Maintain basic bodily functions.
4
Balance is Key
These three are the framework of the Food Guide Pyramid:
 Balance - Eat foods from all groups of the Food Guide Pyramid.
 Variety - Eat different foods from each food group.
 Moderation - Eat more foods from the bottom of the pyramid, and
fewer and smaller portions of foods from the top of the pyramid.

Carbohydrates are the body’s main source of energy
and provide the body’s need for dietary fiber.
7
Fat
- The most concentrated form of food energy (calories).
 Food Sources:
 Butter, vegetable oils, salad dressings, nuts and
seeds, dairy products made with whole milk
or cream, and meats.
 Function in the Body:
 Provide substances needed for growth and healthy skin.
 Enhance the taste and texture of food.
 Required to carry “fat-soluble”
vitamins throughout the body.
 Provide energy.
8
Proteins
 Food Sources:
 Meat, fish,eggs, poultry, dairy products,
legumes, nuts and seeds. (Breads, cereals and
vegetables also contain small amounts of protein.)
 Function in the Body:
 Provides energy.
 Help to build, maintain, and repair body tissues.
 Proteins are made up of chemical compounds
called amino acids. There are 20 amino acids.
9
Minerals
 Food Sources:
 Meats, beans, nuts, fruits, vegetables, dairy
products, and grains.
 Functions in the Body:
 The body depends on minerals for practically
every process necessary for life.
 Minerals actually become part of the body.
 The body requires 16 minerals daily.
10
Vitamins
 Food Sources:
 Fruits, vegetables, milk, whole-grain breads,
cereals and legumes.
 Unlike carbohydrates, fats, and proteins,
vitamins DO NOT provide energy (calories).
 Function in the Body:
 Help regulate the many chemical processes in the body.
 There are 13 different vitamins known to be required
each day for good health.
 Vitamins are separated into two types: Fat Soluble &
Water Soluble Vitamins.
11
Water
 Did you know?
 1/2 to 3/4 of the human body consists of water!
 Functions in the Body:
 Water carries nutrients to your cells and carries waste
from your body.
 Regulates body temperature.
 Dissolves vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other
nutrients.
 Lubricates joints.
It is recommended that teens drink 6-8 glasses (8 fl.oz each) of water each day.
This is in addition to around 4 cups of water you get from food each day.
12
Fiber
 Fiber is the plant material that doesn’t
break down when you digest food. Many,
but not all, complex carbohydrates contain fiber.
 Food Sources:
 Oatmeal, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes.
 Function in the Body:
 Aids in digestion.
 May reduce the risk of developing some diseases like

 A nutritional deficiency occurs when your
body doesn’t get enough nutrients.
 Symptoms:
 At first the symptoms may not seem serious. They may
include: tiredness, difficulty sleeping or concentrating,
frequent colds, and weight loss or gains.
 However, if the deficiency is not corrected the
symptoms may get more serious and effect the skin,
eyes, and bones.
 The best way to avoid a nutrient deficiency is
to eat a well balanced diet.
