Food is our source of nutrition -- phytonutrients, tannins, anthocyanins, etc. are the nutrients we require for body functions and maintenance, growth, reproduction and also to have the energy for performing even the most basic day-to-day activities. Your diet is an important factor that affects your well-being and immunity. How nutritious a food product is depends on many factors -- how is it produced, how fresh you consume it, method of cooking/ preparation and how it is stored.
