One of the most important functions of the plasma is to transport nutrients throughout the body. As food is digested in the stomach and intestines, it is broken down into its components. This includes amino acids (the building blocks of proteins), lipids (fats), sugars (glucose) and fatty acids. These nutrients are distributed to cells throughout the body where they are utilized to maintain healthy functions and growth.
