Our bodies undergo vital chemical reactions to process and utilize the nutrients we consume.

 

Food is digested, breaking down complex molecules into simpler forms like glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids. These nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream and transported to cells.

 

Inside the cells, various chemical reactions convert nutrients into energy, fueling our body's functions. Nutrients also support tissue building, hormone production, enzyme synthesis, and immune health.

 

Consuming a balanced and nutritious diet is crucial for providing the necessary raw materials for these processes to occur optimally.
