Do you live off fast food and/or convenience foods?   If so you are probably not getting the nutrients your body needs to be vital and healthy.  Some disorders linked to poor nutrition include anemia, impaired sight, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, osteoporosis, and certain cancers.

Lack of Vitamins Can cause Health Disorders​

The most common disorders are:  fatigue; loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting; depression; muscle pains and anemia.  We all want to be healthy and to avoid medical problems so we can lead an active life.  One of the simplest starting points is making sure you are providing your body with the right nutrients you need for vitality and good health
A natural place to start is with your daily intake of vitamins.  We receive our daily allowances of vitamins through the foods we eat, and vitamin supplements we take.  We don’t always work to balance our intakes, and the chart below gives the recommended daily values for some of the vitamins we need each day.​

Recommended Daily Intake

IVitamin A
Beta-carotene
Vitamin B1 (thiamine)
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin)
Vitamin B3 (niacin) 

(niacinamide)
Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5)
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine)
​Vitamin B12

Know Your Vitamins​

Vitamins are divided into two groups: water-soluble (B-complex and C) and fat-soluble (A, D, E and K).  Water soluble vitamins include B-complex vitamins and vitamin C these vitamins are not stored in the body and must be replaced each day.   These vitamins are easily destroyed or washed out during food storage and preparation.  Vitamins in the category include Vitamin B12, Vitamin B6, Thiamine, Riboflavin, Niacin, Ascorbic Acid and Falacin/Folate.

Two Categories of Vitamins

Unlike water-soluble vitamins that need regular replacement in the body, fat-soluble vitamins are stored in the liver and fatty tissues, and are eliminated much more slowly than water-soluble vitamins.  Fat-soluble vitamins include Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Vitamin E and Vitamin K

What’s Right For You?

Each person’s specific needs will depend on various factors such as age, gender, activity level, stress level, specific health conditions and, believe it or not, possibly ethnicity.  When putting together a balanced diet, and nutrient needs, start with a diet complete with fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, and as necessary, natural vitamin supplements.  As always, if you have a medical condition you need to consult a licensed health care practitioner for your specific needs
