Micronutrients are vitamins and minerals that are essential for various physiological functions in the body, including energy metabolism, immune function, and bone health. While they are needed in smaller amounts compared to macronutrients, micronutrients play crucial roles in supporting overall health and athletic performance. Athletes may have increased micronutrient needs due to higher energy expenditure and losses through sweat, making it important to consume a varied and nutrient-dense diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
