Vitamins
What are vitamins?
Vitamins are organic substances that are required by the body for optimal health. Small quantities of vitamins are required each day in order to perform a host of functions, from antioxidant protection to building red blood cells to keeping skin healthy. Vitamins are found in many of the foods we eat each day. However, an unbalanced diet can cause vitamin deficiencies, which in turn may lead to increased risk of certain diseases.
Why does the body require vitamins?
Vitamins enable metabolism to run smoothly and are responsible for many important biological processes in the body. Our body should be supplied with vitamins through the diet every single day, and every vitamin is important since it has a special role to play in the body. For example, vitamin A is a factor in normal development of bones and teeth, while folic acid assists in red blood cell formation. There are 12 essential vitamins in Multibionta, and they provide a range of essential functions in the body.
