π Thus, vitamins and minerals are two important types of nutrients, which are very important for the human body to survive and stay healthy.
π There are two types of vitamins.
1: Fat-soluble vitamins: Means vitamins stored in the form of fat, such as vitamins A.D.E.K, etc.
2: Water-soluble vitamins: Means vitamins that dissolve in water and are excreted from the body, such as vitamins B, C, etc.
π There are a total of 13 essential vitamins, of which vitamins A, C and E are very important. I have already written about the importance of vitamins D and B 12. Today we understand the importance of vitamins A, C and E. These three vitamins are antioxidants and increase immunity and prevent diseases or reduce the severity of the disease.
π Vitamin (A)
Vitamin A is an important fat-soluble vitamin that is essential for healthy skin, hair and eyes. This vitamin helps the body fight infections and boosts the body’s immune system. Vitamin A is also important for preventing diseases. Vitamin A deficiency can cause night vision problems or night blindness, weak immunity, dry skin, and hair loss.
Sources of Vitamin A
Vitamin A is found abundantly in carrots, spinach, milk, eggs, ghee, butter, fish liver, and animal fats.
π Vitamin (C)
Vitamin C is an important water-soluble vitamin. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that boosts the body’s immune system and helps fight infections. This vitamin helps the body absorb iron and plays an important role in the development of skin, gums, and bones.
Vitamin C deficiency can cause many problems such as bleeding gums, inflammation of the gums, weak and damaged teeth, poor wound healing, fatigue, physical weakness, hair loss, dry skin, anemia, and small red spots on the skin. Severe deficiency of vitamin C is called scurvy.
Sources of Vitamin C
Vitamin C: Found in abundance in oranges, grapefruits, mangoes, papayas, lemons, guavas, and quinoa, etc.
π Vitamin (E)
This is also a fat-soluble and antioxidant vitamin, which increases immunity, protects against infections and cancer. Vitamin E is very important for skin, hair, and sexual health. Vitamin E deficiency can cause skin roughness and hair loss. Vitamin E deficiency can cause male sexual desire, sperm or sperm count problems, which can lead to infertility.

Vitamin E: Found abundantly in oxidized oil, palm oil, almonds, walnuts and egg yolks.
