Note: Multiwalled carbon nanotubes have the highest tensile strength of any material yet measured, with labs producing them at a tensile strength of 63 GPa, still well below
Micronutrients are nutrients required by organisms throughout life in small quantities to orchestrate a range of physiological functions. For people, they include dietary trace minerals in amounts generally less than 100 milligrams per day, as opposed to macrominerals, which are required in larger quantities.
Our bodies actually get energy (ATP) from the MACROnutrients we eat. Macronutrients are the carbohydrates, proteins, and fats contained in our foods. Vitamins belong to a group of nutrients called micronutrients (because we need them in âmicroâ amounts relative to the macronutrients). These micronutrients help us liberate the energy from the carbohydrate, proteins and fats.
