The fats are getting a bad name when it comes to diet. Some of this is explained because in cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and obesity some forms of fat — and the fat-like substance cholesterol — can play a role.
Fats supply energy to the body and help it perform a number of functions. Eating healthier fats, such as monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, and reducing or restricting saturated and trans fats, is however important.

Unsaturated fat (Good Fats) – The unsaturated fats contain one or more double or triple molecular bonds. Those fats are liquid in […]

Vitamin A serves as an antioxidant. It may come from sources of plants or of animals. Plant origins include fruits and vegetables that are colorful. Livestock products include whole milk and liver. Vitamin A is applied to foods such as cereals, too.
It acts as a hormone in the body that affects gene expression and thus influences the phenotype.
Vitamin A; contains retinol, retinal, retinyl esters, and retinoic acid and is often referred to as “preformed” vitamin A. Beta-carotene can easily be converted to vitamin A as needed.
Vegetarians, young children, and alcoholics may require extra vitamin A. If you have other diseases, […]

Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin that exists naturally in some foods, is added to others, and is used as a dietary supplement. Unlike other animals, humans can not endogenously synthesize vitamin C, so it is an essential dietary component. Vitamin C is a critical safety nutrient. This allows the muscles, skin, and blood vessels to shape and hold. This exists naturally in other foods, in particular, fruit and vegetables. Supplements are available too.
Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C plays a significant role in a variety of body functions including collagen development, L-carnitine, and other neurotransmitters. […]

Introduction
Vitamin E serves an antioxidant. It can help guard your cells against injury. This essential nutrient appears in many foods, naturally. This also serves as a nutritional supplement. It is in processed foods, even. Vitamin E is soluble in water. Having enough vitamin E is essential to the immune system, to the protection of the blood vessels, and to keeping the skin intact.
Naturally occurring vitamin E occurs in eight molecular groups (alpha, beta, gamma, and delta-tocopherol and alpha, beta, gamma, and delta-tocotrienol) with differing amounts of biological activity[1]. Alpha- (or α-) tocopherol is the only type known to fulfill human […]

Vitamin K plays a vital part in helping to reduce further bleeding from the blood clot. Vitamin K is not commonly used as a nutritional supplement, as opposed to many other vitamins.
Vitamin K comes in two ways and is a fat-soluble vitamin. The key component is phylloquinone, which is present in green leafy vegetables such as collard greens, kale, and spinach. The other kind, menaquinones, is present in some feedingstuffs and fermented foods. Menaquinones can be produced in the human body even by bacteria.
Although vitamin K deficiency is rare, your health may be compromised over time by less than adequate […]

Overview

A vitamin is an organic molecule (or associated group of molecules) which is an important micronutrient that an organism requires in limited amounts to properly work its metabolism. There are 13 essential vitamins that the body requires.
These 13 essential vitamins are vitamins A, C, D, E, K, and the B vitamin: thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), biotin (B7), folate (B9) and cobalamin (B12).
The four fat-soluble vitamins-A, D, E, and K-are found in the fat tissues of the body. The remaining nine vitamins are water-soluble and thus need to be periodically replenished as they are in […]

The B-group vitamins do not supply energy support to the body, although commercials for supplements frequently say they do. It is possible, however, that the body loses strength without B-group vitamins. The body uses nutrients that generate energy, such as carbohydrates, fat, and protein for food. The vitamins in the B-group support the body in using the water.
While vitamins from the B-group are present in many foods, they are water-soluble and delicate. They are easily destroyed particularly by cooking and alcohol. Food processing can also minimize the amount of B-group vitamins in the food, rendering white flours, breads, and rice […]

Thiamine (thiamine), or vitamin B1, is a water-soluble vitamin naturally present in certain foods, added to foods, and marketed as an ingredient. Thiamine is an essential nutrient and must act properly in all body tissues. Thiamine was the first vitamin B and was found by scientists. Vitamin B1 is present in many foods including seeds, grains of cereals, beans, nuts, and fruit. It is also used in conjunction with other B vitamins and is present in other complex products made from vitamin B.
Sources of Vitamin B-1

One of the eight B-complex vitamins is vitamin B2 also known as riboflavin. Like other B vitamins, it plays a part in the body’s energy production which has many other essential applications as well. Vitamin B2 is a water-soluble vitamin and is thus dissolved in water. Both vitamins are soluble in water, or soluble in oil. Water-soluble supplements are processed into the bloodstream, and anything unwanted flows out of the body into the urine.
Vitamin B2 refers to the molecule called riboflavin, which is a vitamin since it can produce two abbreviated cofactors such as FAD and FMN.

Vitamin B3, also known as niacin, is among the eight water-soluble vitamins in the B-complex. Niacin has a wide variety of applications in the body, supporting the immune tract, skin, and nervous system functions.
Getting ample niacin, or vitamin B3 is essential for good general health in the body. Higher doses of niacin, as a drug, may raise cholesterol levels.
Nicotinamide, nicotinic acid, and vitamin PP are other names for vitamin B-3 as it avoids pellagra. The body excretes some niacin in the urine it doesn’t use. Niacin is not processed by the liver, and people have to take it in the […]
