  Comments:
See comments on 養分.  They all apply here(pretty sure the terms are synonymous).  eijiro has some more fanciful glosses under this term, but I don't think they negate the point.

I had to look up what "nutriment" means.  I think "nutrient" is actually the correct term in this case.

I like this eijiro gloss:
栄養分を強化したパン
fortified bread

Obviously, it was "nutrients" that were added, not "nutrition".

Looking at the eijiro examples, we could certainly add, for example, an entry "to nourish"
栄養分を与える	1265

But I don't think that makes 栄養分 into "nourishment" (or nutrition).
