This has brought us to the end of another lesson, has you go through the week you can do some further reading on nutrients. You will go to chapter 4 in your Caribbean Home Economics in action book 2 and read on the classification of nutrients. You will read on the deficiency that will affect people who are lacking these nutrients.

As you go remember that the foods you choose to eat determine which nutrients your body will receive and in what quantities. Nutrients are substances that allow your body to make energy, build and maintain tissues, and regulate bodily processes. If you eat a healthy diet filled with a variety of high-nutrient foods, you are more likely to enjoy good health than if you eat a poor diet that is lacking in nutrients.
