Fats Fats: fats are an important source of energy. Fats contain twice as many calories as carbohydrates. -saturated : are found in animal sources like meat, egg yolks, cheese and butter. (contain cholesterol) -unsaturated : come from plants like vegetables (vegetable oil) and olive oil.

Vitamins Vitamins: substances needed in small quantities to help regulate body functions. They also help your body use other nutrients, store and use energy and fight infection.
