Table of food nutrients

Do you know when we eat food, our body uses the good things inside it to grow big and strong? Just like how we need toys to play, our body needs different things in food to work properly.

Now imagine you have a big box filled with lots of different toys. Some toys will help you learn and some will make you happy. Similarly, different foods have different things inside them that help our body.

A table of food nutrients is like a big list of all the different things that different foods have inside them. It is like a map of what different foods can do for us. Just like how a map helps us find our way to a new place, the table helps us know which food is good for what our body needs.

For example, some foods have a lot of protein which helps us build strong muscles while some foods have vitamins that make us feel good and have a lot of energy. By looking at the table, we can make sure we eat different kinds of food so that we get all the different things our body needs to work well. Just like how we need all the different toys for different games, our body needs all the different nutrients for different tasks.
