  • Oxygen plays a very important role in our body, oxygen along with nutrients from the food to create Adenosine triphosphate, which is used as a fuel for cell functions.
  • Glucose is the main source of energy for cells and organs of body. The stored form of glucose is called glycogen.
  • Amino acids play an important role in metabolic pathway, gene expression. They are they building blocks of proteins and make up 75% of the body.
