Task. Read the text and complete the task There are five main types of nutrients we need from our food. These are carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals and vitamins. A sixth important part of our diet is roughage or fibre.
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are mainly used by the body as fuel. Digestion breaks them into a simple sugar called glucose. This is carried in the blood to provide energy for all our body parts.
Proteins
Proteins perform many important jobs in the body. Your body needs them to grow, and to make repairs when it is damaged.
Fats
The body needs some fat to build its parts and keep them working properly. Fat can also be used as fuel, for energy.
Fibre
Fibre does not provide nutrition, but it helps bulk up waste so that it passes easily through the body. People who do not consume enough roughage are more likely to suffer from constipation, which can sometimes lead to more serious diseases of the intestines.
Minerals
Minerals are simple substances such as calcium, iron and salt. You need to eat a lot of mineral- rich food when your body is growing.
Vitamins
Vitamins are special substances that your body needs in tiny amounts but cannot make itself.
