Nourish Your Body with Essential Nutrients
Vitamins and minerals are the cornerstone of health, crucial for our survival and overall well-being. While they don't contribute calories, they are fundamental in activating numerous chemical processes necessary for growth, maintaining health, and potentially warding off diseases.
Understanding Vitamins
Vitamins are organic compounds vital for normal cell function, growth, and development. There are 13 essential vitamins, indispensable for the body's proper functioning:
- Vitamin A, C, D, E, K
- Vitamins B1 (Thiamine), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyridoxine), B7 (Biotin), Folate (B9), B12 (Cyanocobalamin)
Vitamins are categorized into two types:
-
Fat-Soluble Vitamins (A, D, E, K): Stored in the body's liver, fatty tissue, and muscles, these are best absorbed alongside dietary fat.
-
Water-Soluble Vitamins (Vitamin C and all B Vitamins): These vitamins are not stored in the body and excess amounts are excreted through urine, necessitating regular consumption to prevent deficiencies. Vitamin B12 is an exception, as it can be stored in the liver for years.
The Role of Minerals
Minerals are inorganic elements crucial for functions like maintaining acid-base balance, normal hemoglobin levels, and osmotic pressure. They are key components of vitamins, hormones, enzymes, bones, and tissues.
For optimal health, we need minerals such as Calcium, Iodine, Phosphorus, Chloride, Iron, Potassium, Magnesium, Selenium, Copper, Sodium, Zinc, and more.
Vitamins vs. Minerals
Though both are micronutrients, vitamins and minerals differ fundamentally. Vitamins are organic and can degrade through exposure to heat, air, or acid, whereas minerals are inorganic and maintain their chemical structure.
Major and Trace Minerals
-
Major Minerals: Required in larger amounts, these include Calcium, Chloride, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Sodium, and Sulfur. Despite the name, they are no more important than trace minerals; they're just more prevalent in the body.
-
Trace Minerals: Found in smaller quantities, trace minerals like Chromium, Copper, Fluoride, Iodine, Iron, Manganese, Molybdenum, Selenium, and Zinc are equally vital for health.
