Vitamins are organic substances present in minute amounts in natural foodstuffs. Having too little of any particular vitamin may increase the risk of developing certain health issues.

A vitamin is an organic compound, which means that it contains carbon. It is also an essential nutrient that the body may need to get from food.

There are currently 13 recognized vitamins.

Vitamin-A

• Chemical Name:  retinol, retinal, and “the four carotenoids,” including beta carotene.

• It is fat-soluble.

• Function: It is essential for eye health.

• Deficiency disease: This may cause night blindness and keratomalacia, which causes the clear front layer of the eye to grow dry and cloudy.

• Good Source: carrots, Milk, Eggs, Fruits.

Vitamin-B1

• Chemical Name: thiamine.
• It is water-soluble.
• Function: It is essential for producing various enzymes that help break down blood sugar.

• Deficiency disease: This may cause beriberi and Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome.

• Good Source:  These include yeast, pork, cereal grains, sunflower seeds, brown rice, whole grain rye, asparagus, kale, cauliflower, potatoes, oranges, liver, and eggs.

Vitamin-B2

• Chemical Name:  riboflavin.

• It is water-soluble.

• Function: It is essential for the growth and development of body cells and helps metabolize food.

• Deficiency disease: Symptoms include inflammation of the lips and fissures in the mouth.

• Good Source: These include asparagus, bananas, persimmons, okra, chard, cottage cheese, milk, yogurt, meat, eggs, fish, and green beans.

Vitamin-B3

• Chemical Name:  niacin, niacinamide.

• It is water-soluble.

• Function: The body needs niacin for the cells to grow and work correctly.

• Deficiency disease:  Low levels result in a health issue called pellagra, which causes diarrhea, skin changes, and intestinal upset.

• Good Source:  Examples include chicken, beef, tuna, salmon, milk, eggs, tomatoes, leafy vegetables, broccoli, carrots, nuts and seeds, tofu, and lentils.

Vitamin-B5

• Function:  It is vital for the formation of red blood cells.

• Deficiency disease: Low levels may lead to anemia and peripheral neuropathy.

• Good Source: These include chickpeas, beef liver, bananas, squash, and nuts.

Vitamin-B7 / H

• Chemical Name:  biotin.

• It is water-soluble.

• Function:  It enables the body to metabolize proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It also contributes to keratin, a structural protein in the skin, hair, and nails.

• Deficiency disease: Low levels may cause dermatitis or inflammation of the intestines.

• Good Source: These include egg yolk,  broccoli, spinach, and cheese.

Vitamin-B9

• Chemical Name:  folic acid, folinic acid.

• Deficiency disease: This may result in scurvy, which causes bleeding gums, a loss of teeth, and poor tissue growth and wound healing.

• Good Source: These include fruit and vegetables, but cooking destroys vitamin C.

Vitamin-D
