Adj phrase means "A balanced diet provides lots of nutrients that make you strong."
Adv phrase means "A balanced diet provides lots of nutrients in order to make you strong."
Sorry for bad English, I hope this makes sense
Okay I did some quick googling and I believe an adverb phrase is something that describes a verb and an adjective phrase is something that describes a noun?
If that's so, I believe "to make you strong" would be an adverb phrase, because it describes the "providing" here. If it should be an adjective phrase, the sentence should be like "A balanced died provides lots of nutrients that make you strong".
That's as much as I can tell you from googling what adverb and adjective phrases mean. What does it matter what grammatical category that sentence belongs to so long as it makes sense anyways?
There was this weird rule that you must have an adjective phrase using a to-infinitive, and my friend used the phrase, but got marked wrong. Anyways tysm!!
I go to a South Korean school and the way people teach grammar is INSANE. That's why my friend was arguing with the English teacher, English grades are fucking important here
that sentence is fine. I'm not sure, but it seems like it could be an adverbial phrase.

>So does this sentence sound awkward when you interpret the "to make you strong" part as an adjective phrase?
I doubt what sort of phrase it is changes how it sounds.
This sentence is acceptable but there are a lot of little problems in it which don’t really matter. But, it is elegant.
“Lots of” is usually clumsy.
The modifier of the noun, nutrients, should be adjectival and I agree with the person suggested “which.”
“Make you” is okay, but inelegant >> “for strength and energy” would be crisper and more adult.
To be honest I don't know what the difference would be

I think it makes sense and sounds fine either way. They are extremely close in meaning.

I have no fucking clue what a to-infinitive is. Your teacher is mental.

Ah. It wasn't your teacher, it is your country that's mental.
