First off, it's good to know that our bodies require 6 nutrients:
Carbohydrates
Fats
Protein
Vitamins
Minerals
Water
Carbs, fat, and protein are known as macronutrients because we need to eat them in larger quantities (grams per day). Our bodies metabolize them and turn them into energy.
Vitamins and Minerals are considered micronutrients because we need them in smaller quantities (milligrams per day).
