Patient's Query

Hello doctor.

I am a 26-year-old woman. Could you please describe essential nutrients and explain why they are so vital to our health? I would like to have a clear picture of it. What are the primary types of important nutrients, and what roles do they play in the body? How can I calculate my particular daily nutrient requirements while taking into account characteristics such as age, gender, activity level, and special health conditions? What does a well-balanced, nutrient-dense diet look like? Are there any rules or meal planning suggestions you can provide me to help me do this? What are some of the most prevalent indications and symptoms of vitamin deficiencies, and how may they be addressed or avoided by dietary and lifestyle changes?

Kindly help.

They are necessary for the body to retain appropriate water and electrolytes.

The signs and symptoms are bleeding, nausea, vomiting, malaise, lethargy, dizziness, and weariness, which may be remedied by consuming the necessary vital nutrients.
