Brief explanation of vitamins

Vitamins are essential nutrients that the body needs to function properly. They cannot be produced by the body itself, so they must be obtained from food or supplements.

Fat-soluble vitamins are stored in the body’s fat cells and can be released over time. Water-soluble vitamins are not stored in the body and must be consumed regularly.

Vitamins play a variety of important roles in the body, including:

  • Converting food into energy
  • Supporting cell growth and repair
  • Boosting the immune system
  • Protecting cells from damage
  • Promoting strong bones and teeth
  • Helping the body absorb and use nutrients

It is important to get a balanced diet that includes a variety of foods to ensure that you are getting all of the vitamins you need. However, if you are concerned about your vitamin intake, you may want to talk to your doctor about taking a multivitamin supplement.
