Macronutrients (carbs, protein, fat) get so much attention nowadays, it’s important that we also get a wide variety of micronutrients in our diet and the right amount.
✅Vitamins
Vitamins participate in many metabolic processes such as growth, repair, digestion, energy transfer, nervous system function, and immunity.
✅Minerals and Electrolytes
Minerals help build body structures like teeth and bones and electrolytes help regulate body fluids.
✅Eating a wide range of whole, minimally processed plant and animal foods can help us get plenty of micronutrients easily and naturally. Supplementing with micronutrients is another option if access to whole/natural foods is limited.
Until next time my friends! Be more, Do more! Let’s Go!
