CARBOHYDRATESCarbs are sugars and starches that the body uses for energy.
Plants are the major source of carbs in our diets

SIMPLE CARBOHYDRATES
Sugars that are quickly digested and provide a boost of energy for the body.

COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES
Starches that are composed of many sugars linked together.
They provide the body with long term energy since they are digested more slowly

PROTEINProvide the building materials to help the body grow and repair itself.
Proteins are the basis of many animal body structures (e.g. muscles, skin, and hair)
Proteins are made from many amino acids connected together in different arrangements.

PROTEIN & ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS
9 of the 20 amino acids are called essential amino acids because you must obtain them from the foods you eat since your body cannot make them.

FAT ENERGY source for the
body (more than carbs and proteins)
Fats belong to a group of organic compounds called lipids which are substances that do not dissolve in water.
Help protect and cushion vital organs as well as joints
Insulate the body
