    Nutrients in food provide essential functions for the body. Carbohydrates from foods like bread, potatoes, and fruit provide the body's primary source of energy and regulate blood glucose levels. Protein from meat, poultry, beans, and eggs are essential for building and regulating tissues and enzymes. Fats from foods like salmon, nuts, and oils provide backup energy, help absorb nutrients, and maintain core body temperature. Vitamins and minerals from foods like milk, eggs, fish, and cereals are complex chemicals that the body needs to build tissues and for other processes. Deficiencies in these nutrients can lead to health issues.
