I believe I would say micro nutrients..........the CDC says “Micronutrients are dietary components, often referred to as vitamins and minerals, which although only required by the body in small amounts, are vital to development, disease prevention, and wellbeing. Micronutrients are not produced in the body and must be derived from the diet.”

Answer:

there are many different nutrients our body can't produce, such as: omega-3,

vitamins, and minerals, just to name a few. But, I feel water would be your best answer. Yes, I know, surprising, but true.
