The Nitty Gritty
Vitamin A: Well known to be beneficial for skin, and vision health. Also supports cellular differentiation, which is a process that transforms cells into more specialized cells. Vitamin A also boosts the immune system by helping with the creation of the protective mucus that lines the lungs.
Vitamin B12: Contributes to a strong immune system, as it is necessary to create parts of the body’s defense system; particularly the immunoglobulin, and cytokines. It is also crucial for proper digestion as it aids in the breakdown of protein to amino acids. A vitamin B12 deficiency could result in diarrhea.
Vitamin D: Primary function is the regulation of calcium levels in the body. Thus it is vital for the skeletal system as it helps control calcium deposit, and absorption from the bones, as well as playing a role in absorbing calcium from digested foods. It is also essential for nerve function, and healthy muscles.
Vitamin E: Aids in the production of cell membranes, as well as boosting skin, and vision health, metabolizes fat, and helps other nutrients synthesize in the body, such as Vitamin C. It is also a powerful antioxidant which helps the removal of free radicals, protecting the cells, thus reducing the risk of inflammation, and cancers.
Iron: Essential for maintaining, and supplying oxygen in the circulatory system. Primary roles are oxygen transport around the body, oxygen storage as hemoglobin; but it is also necessary for energy production, and is a cofactor for multiple enzymes in the body.
Potassium: A primary electrolyte for the body, thus it is crucial for many everyday functions. It works with sodium to maintain homeostasis in the blood, preventing dehydration by moving water in, and out of the cells. Also necessary for voluntary, and involuntary muscle contraction, meaning it helps keep the heart beating in rhythm.
