This section provides information to help teach about nutrients. Two PowerPoint presentations, at foundation level or extension level, provide an overview of the needs and requirements for nutrients in the diet. The presentations are supported by note sheets, which encourage students to take notes during lessons.

The vegetarians photomontage contains images of a variety of food products suitable for vegetarians and/or vegans. This has been collated to provoke class discussion. Students may wish to create their own photomontage, using this example as a guide. (BNF does not endorse the products highlighted.)
