Hospital food must meet a variety of nutritional standards in order to successfully support patients' recovery and overall health. A balanced meal is necessary; ideally, this would include proteins, carbohydrates, fats, fibers, and micro-nutrients (which include the likes of calcium or iron).
Having each food group contributes to the balancing of minerals and vitamins. For example, carbohydrates provide fiber, B vitamins, and minerals, whereas proteins can include iron and zinc.
