Micronutrients are one of the major groups of nutrients your body needs. They include vitamins and minerals. Vitamins are necessary for energy production, immune function, blood clotting, and other functions. Most of the vitamins are not synthesised in the human body. Meanwhile, minerals play an important role in growth, bone health, fluid balance, and several other processes. Micronutrient deficiencies can cause visible and dangerous health conditions, but they can also lead to less clinically notable reductions in energy level, mental clarity, and overall capacity. This can lead to reduced educational outcomes, reduced work productivity, and increased risk from other diseases and health conditions. Macronutrients, on the other hand, include proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
