Macronutrients - Carbohydrates, Lipids, and Proteins

Macronutrients

In this module nutrients are introduced with a discussion about how they work in the body. There are six classes of nutrients:

• Energy yielding macronutrients: Carbohydrates, Lipids or Fats, and Proteins
• Non-energy yielding micronutrients: Vitamins (water soluble and fat soluble) and Minerals (macrominerals and microminerals) and Water

In this module the focus will be on energy yielding macronutrients. In the next module the non-energy micronutrients are discussed.
