Most of us are wondering, especially during the winter, if taking vitamins can make us feel stronger. Vitamins are very important in the processes of our body. They play a prominent role in metabolism. Taking them has also been shown to prevent some diseases.
Vitamins are able to defend us but our body is not able to produce them independently. Attention to nutrition must be focused on foods that vary on the table and contain all the vitamins we need. Vitamins must never be lacking, especially in winter.
How to get more vitamins
Professor Pier Luigi Rossi, Professor of Clinical Nutrition at the University of Bologna explains their importance.
Vitamins must be taken with nutrition and food balance. In order to provide us with all those that the body needs for good functioning. When this does not happen we have to resort to supplements to take the right dosage. Insufficient vitamins in the body lead to problems, but excess of these can also be problematic. Our body needs the right amount of it.
A little more in detail
Vitamins are distinguished, in water-soluble vitamins and fat-soluble vitamins. The former dissolve in water, the latter in fats.
Fat-soluble: B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B12 and vitamin C. These in particular are vitamins that the body cannot reproduce but it is possible to find some of them in vegetables and fruit. Finally vitamins A, D, K and E that the organism takes from fat. The most deficient is usually D. In fact, it is a vitamin that is taken through food for only 10% of the requirement. The remaining percentage is assumed through our exposure to sunlight. It is usually taken in summer with the help of the sun and heat. While in winter with the cold and the lack of light it can be lacking.
So it is important to make sure that all vitamins are in the diet. For this reason vitamins must never be lacking, especially in winter. If everything is regulated by a good intake of foods that possess it, we will know how to feed ourselves properly and this will give us the right well-being.
