How are the five major food groups related to the major types of nutrients? How does this relationship help you make healthful food choices?
Answer: They all intertwine with each other. If you eat the correct amount or each food group, you will get the right amount of nutrients. Some food groups will contain more of a certain nutrient than another, but by eating correct proportions, it will balance out. By knowing this, you can eat correct proportions or recognize where you might be lacking and try to fix it by looking at resources like MyPyramid.
