    We need food for energy, to maintain our bodies, and for growth and repair. Food provides nutrients like carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, and minerals that our bodies cannot produce themselves. If we do not get enough nutrients, we will feel hunger and over 800 million people worldwide currently experience hunger. A balanced diet with a variety of foods like vegetables, fruits, and proteins is important for good health and nutrition.
