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.

Testimonials

I just visited your website and put in an order for some Myoplex products again. I just wanted to let you know that I was REALLY impressed with the look and navigability of your site. You've improved it every time I've been there and it is as good as they get. On occasion I still find myself committing the unforgivable sin (shopping at GNC during Gold card days) but I'll try to make my New Year's resolution for 2003 to do more shopping with Key, as you guys are great. Have a great New Year and God Bless!

Just received my package yesterday. Totally delighted at the bonus you guys (and ladies) gave me. Great personalized service and speedy delivery, I couldn't have asked for more. Will recommend KeySupplements to gym mates if they ever need anything that can't be found locally. Thanks!

I ordered my order late in the day on Thursday around 3:30PM CST. You were still able to get it shipped that day. Then to my surprise and delight, it arrived today in Madison, WI. Your service has been unbelievable and I find that your prices are also the lowest around. Thanks for such speedy delivery of my items. I will let everyone know what a great job your site did and continue to shop with you in the future. Thanks for everything!

Hi there, Once again I would like to thank you for sending us our supplements while in Afghanistan. I am back in Canada now and ordered a few more. I really appreciate the efforts you put forth for us out there! Thanks to you I gained 20 lbs of mass! God Bless the Troops.
