In terms of nutrition, discuss the statement “you are what you eat”, what does that mean?

Vocaloid:

Please do not copy-paste my response. Matter cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, the building blocks (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, as well as micronutrients) that your body uses to carry out bodily functions come from the food you eat. So the molecules in food literally become part of your body, which is one way that "you are what you eat."
