Macronutrients
Macronutrients are the nutrients that give your body energy to perform essential functions. The word “macro” means large, and these nutrients are needed in large quantities. The three macronutrients are fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Each of these nutrients provides calories and helps you carry out essential functions like walking, thinking, converting food into energy, growing, and repairing yourself.
Each macronutrient is essential to life, and each provides a certain amount of calories. Fat is the most calorie dense nutrient, providing 9 calories per gram. Carbohydrates and protein both provide 4 calories per gram.
