Dietary Vitamins Supplements Information

Dietary Vitamins and minerals are substances your body needs in small amounts for normal growth, function and health. Together, vitamins supplements and minerals are called micronutrients. Your body can’t make most micronutrients, so you must get them from the foods you eat or, in some cases, from supplements.

You need dietary vitamins for normal body functions, mental alertness and resistance to infection. They enable your body to process proteins, carbohydrates and fats. Certain vitamins also help you produce blood cells, hormones, genetic material and chemicals in your nervous system. Unlike carbohydrates, proteins and fats, vitamins and minerals do not provide fuel (calories). However, they help your body release and use calories from food.

There are 14 Dietary vitamin supplements, which fall into two categories:

Fat-soluble: Dietary Vitamins A, D, E and K. They are stored in your bodys fat. Some fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamins A and D, can accumulate in your body and reach toxic levels.

Water-soluble: Dietary Vitamin C, choline, biotin and the seven B vitamins: thiamin (B-1), riboflavin (B-2), niacin (B-3), pantothenic acid (B-5), pyridoxine (B-6), folic acid/folate (B-9) and cobalamin (B-12). Theyre stored to a lesser extent than fat-soluble vitamins.

Your body also needs minerals. Major minerals those needed in larger amounts include calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium and chloride. Calcium, phosphorus and magnesium are important in the development and health of your bones and teeth. Sodium, potassium and chloride, known as electrolytes, are important in regulating the water and chemical balance in your body. In addition, your body needs smaller amounts of chromium, copper, fluoride, iodine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium and zinc. These are all necessary for normal growth and health
