ABSTRACT
The concept of life is discussed from a biological
as well as biochemical perspective, recurring to
Alexander Ivanovich Oparin’s evolutionist
theory as the one that better explains the origin
of life on Earth. The main chemical structures qualified as nutrients are dealt, and their
relationships with the origin and perpetuation of
life are explored. It is thus pretended to
emphasize the importance of Nutrition as the
science it is, as well as an essential biological
function for the integrity of every living
organism. Having reached this point, the
ignorance of health care teams on the basic
postulates of the science of Nutrition is revealed,
and how it can affect the care of the hospitalized
patient.
