Answer:

Macro and micronutrients differ in several ways, the primary being the units they are measured in. Macros are measured in terms of grams, for example, 1 gram of protein or fat.  Macronutrients consist of the following three major categories of nutrients:

Proteins: These are the nutrients that are usually found in food items such as eggs, dairy products like cottage cheese, fish, soy and tofu.  

Fats: These are the nutrients that are found in food items such as meat, different kinds of nuts, oil, butter, milk and cheese.

Carbohydrates: Potatoes, bread, rice, pasta, corn, grains and even some fruits are very rich sources of carbohydrates.  

Micronutrients are, on the other hand, measured in much smaller units such as milligrams and micrograms. Green vegetables and fruits that are chock-full of vitamins and minerals contain an abundance of micronutrients. Some of these include:

Zinc

Magnesium

Vitamin E

Vitamin C

Vitamin B-6

Calcium

Iron

Folate
