Do you mean the 6 essential nutrients?

If you do, then they are:
1. Protein - Helps to build muscle and repair damage
2. Carbohydrates - Provide energy
3. Vitamins - Gives you B1, B2, B12 and Vitamins A, D, E & K
4. Minerals - Gives you calcium you need
5. Fat - Provides energy, protects vital organs and keeps us warm
6. Water - regulates body processes

So i guess if you have a deficiency it would be the opposite~

I hope that makes sense
