Nutrition focuses on the nutrients needed for survival and growth. Nutrients include vitamins, minerals, and other substances that the body cannot produce itself. Good nutrition comes from foods like grains, fruits, vegetables, lean meats and low-fat dairy. Maintaining good nutrition requires balancing calories consumed with calories burned through exercise and activity. Nutrition is influenced by lifestyle factors like sleep, hydration, and level of physical activity.
