Macronutrients are like our rice and meat—we need them in large amounts, while micronutrients are the tiny spices that keep the body’s engine smooth. As someone who focuses on my protein intake to stay strong for carrying cane loads, I see that a lack of protein makes my muscles slow to heal from small cuts or strains. But my grandmother reminds me that when we cannot afford many vegetables, our nails get brittle—that is a micronutrient whisper. So even as I watch my protein, the old aches in our hands tell me not to forget the small vitamins too.
