6. FUNCTIONS OF THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF NUTRIENTS WHICH FOOD CONTAINS Glucides and lipids (greasies) are employed as a source of calories, for that reason they have the same energetic mission. They must provide with the 55% from the total energy of the glucides and the 35% of the greasies. Proteins have a primary mission which is the contribution of the substrate for the renovation and the growth of many different structures of the organism. We name this plastic and formative function. They give the 15% from the total energy. The control of many parts in the organism function constitutes the regulative function and it is covered by vitamins and one hundred minerals, as iron, iodine, chlorine…

7. THE SEVEN GROUPS OF FOOD These groups of food are normally represented in form of a wheel. In the first level milk and derivatives are represented. In the second level there are all the meet forms (calf, chicken, pork, lamb…), their derivatives (sausages, ham…), fish, seafood and eggs. The food of these two groups contains essentially proteins of animal origin and they are, therefore, plastic or trainer food. The third group is potatoes, dried vegetables and dry fruit. It has an energy imput, but proteins and vitamins are food that combines three functions. Vegetables form the fourth group. They contribute with vitamins and minerals. The same happens with the fruit of the fifth group that contribute the majority of the c vitamin needed. These groups are essentially regulatory. The sixth group involves bread, cereal, sugar and sweets. It is the group of carbohydrates (glucides). On the other hand, the seventh group is the fat typical group, with oil, butter, bacon… The food of these two groups is energetic. We choose one or more products of each group to design the daily menu.
