Vital Vitamins And Minerals
What are vitamins and minerals? Vitamins
are organic substances derived from animal or plant sources
that are necessary for healthy function.
There are 13 vitamins required, with most needing to be supplemented
through a good diet. Only vitamin D, biotin, and vitamin B5
can be manufactured within the body. Vitamin D is derived
from 10-30 minutes of sunlight exposure while both biotin
and vitamin B5 can be manufactured by intestinal bacteria.
There are basically two categories of vitamins:
fat-soluble or water-soluble. There are four fat-soluble vitamins,
meaning that with the help of fat and bile they can be absorbed.
The four fat-soluble vitamins are vitamins D, A, E, and K.
Secondly, there are the 8 water-soluble B vitamins and vitamin
C. Water-soluble vitamins require water for them to be broken
down and absorbed.
Interestingly enough, the body can actually store some of
the water-soluble vitamins for weeks or even months at a time,
so daily supplementation is not always necessary.
One of the downsides of overdosing with vitamins is the fact
the the high concentrations of vitamins and minerals in the
intestine can cause for there to be interference between certain
ones.
In addition, when those protein apoenzymes are fully saturated
with vitamins then the excess imitates drugs. Some megadoses
of vitamins have been known to be extremely toxic. For example,
too much vitamin D, a vitamin many associate
with bone health, can lead to...
