The Importance of Vitamins In Your Life

Natural vitamins are those organic food substances which are found only in plants and animals, i.e., living things. The body is not able to synthesize or manufacture vitamins (although there are a few exceptions to this). Because of this, they must be supplied either directly in the diet, or by way of dietary supplements. Vitamins are vital if our body is to function normally. They are absolutely necessary for our growth, general-well being and vitality.

Vitamins cannot be assimilated without ingesting food. This is why it is suggested that vitamins must be taken with a meal. They help to regulate the body’s metabolism, assist in forming the bone and tissue, and help convert fat and carbohydrates. However, one must remember that vitamins cannot replace food.
We shall now look at the importance of each of the vitamins by turn.

Getting your vitamins
Eating healthy, balanced meals throughout the day is what will ensure that you take in all the vitamins and nutrients you need to survive. While individuals have different dietary needs, everyone needs the full complement of vitamins in order to live a healthy, disease-free life.
But why do we need vitamins? There are so many and it's hard to keep track of what they do. And why are there so many B vitamins?

The B vitamin: it's value to you
There used to only be one B vitamin, until scientists discovered that it was actually several different chemicals that work together. Over time, scientists have come to understand the B vitamin complex much better. As a result, they have isolated eight different vitamins within the B vitamin family. While they used to consider many more chemicals as part of the B vitamin family, the vitamins that remain (that you need to be taking) are B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, and B12.

Individually, deficiencies in these vitamins may lead to a variety of conditions (depending on which ones are deficient) including unhealthy weight loss, emotional distress, weakness, irregular heartbeat, diarrhea, inflammation of the skin, anemia, and even dementia.
Together, this family of vitamins contributes towards healthy skin, faster metabolism, a better nervous system and immune system, and they can help combat stress and depression. The B vitamin family can really do a lot to improve your life!

The solution
So if you are on a diet and are concerned that you may not be getting enough of the B vitamin complex, you should consider purchasing vitamin supplements to make sure you're getting all the vitamins you need. The cost of going without B vitamins can be tragic, while the benefits of having the full complement of the B vitamin complex is great.
