Food and its importance
Food is an essential part of our lives. Food provides us with the nutrients and energy we need to grow, learn, develop and do all the activities in our day-to-day lives. Foods are directly related to our bodies and their functions since they contain nutrition like proteins, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins and fats. These are all important for our physical and mental health. The main sources of nutrition and energy for our bodies are food and water, but many of the foods we eat may not contain the essential nutrition we need. Some of these foods can actually lead to health problems, such as high blood pressure and heart disease. So, you should choose more balanced foods with enough nutrition for your body.
Foods provide us with nutrients. There are many different nutrients. We divide them into:
Macronutrients that we need in large amounts. These are:
- carbohydrates
- fats
- proteins
Micronutrients that we need in small amounts. There are many different micronutrients, but the ones listed below are most likely to be lacking in our diets:
- minerals
- vitamins
The importance of food in our lives is like the importance of oxygen for breathing. If you stop breathing oxygen, it can kill you in a matter of minutes, and if you stop eating food, it will kill you in a few days or weeks. Both of them are necessary to continue life. The food we eat fulfils the nutritious needs of our body, and there is a variety of food for us to use. Everyone has their preferences when it comes to food; some people are vegetarian (that means they only eat a plant-based diet), and most are omnivorous (Meaning that they eat both plants and meat). No matter what diet you are on, it should be giving you the nutrition your body needs to be healthy.
Every cell in your body depends on the nutrients and calories that are present in the food that you eat. However, the need for food is not only limited to continuing life. There are different food sources. The primary sources are plants and animals. Foods such as oil, meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, tea, chocolate, coffee and dairy are obtained from these primary sources. Not all the food that we eat is made from plants and animals. For example, mushrooms are obtained from edible fungi. Food has become a major part of our social lives, economy, and comfort.
