Vitamins are an important nutrient that the body needs to grow, develop, and carry out its functions normally. These nutrients are classified as macronutrients or micronutrients, which means the body needs them in small amounts. Generally, vitamins come from organic foods and fruits.
Not all vitamins can be produced by the body, so humans still need vitamins as additional nutrition. Vitamins and minerals are nutrients that fall into the category of micronutrients. The body requires levels of vitamins and minerals in small amounts.
Some types of vitamins that are known are:
Vitamins A, C, D, E, K,
B vitamins, including thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxal (B6), cobalamin (B12) , biotin, and folic acid/folate.
