Why can food very high in oil and sugar reduce overall nutrient quality?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it may provide excess energy while supplying fewer essential nutrients

Oil and sugar are energy-dense ingredients, but foods containing large amounts of them may provide relatively little protein, fibre, vitamins, and minerals. If such foods displace pulses, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, or other nutrient-rich foods, the diet can become high in calories but poor in essential nutrients. This is why option D accurately describes reduced nutrient quality.
