VITAMINS Vitamins – Compounds found in living things that are needed for life, growth & to prevent diseases. Deficiency – Having too little of a necessary substance. Toxicity – Receiving too much of a vitamin or a mineral can be poisonous to your body. There are two types of vitamins: Fat-soluble vitamins & Water-soluble vitamins

VITAMINS Fat-soluble vitamins – Dissolve in fat and can be stored in the body. Pose a greater risk in toxicity. Vitamin A: Keeps eyes, hair, and skin healthy. Vitamin D: Aids in formation of bones and teeth. Vitamin E: Helps form & maintain cells. Vitamin K: Helps clot blood.

VITAMINS Water-soluble vitamins – Dissolve in water and not stored in the body. They are needed in your diet. Vitamin C – Strengthens your immune system Vitamin B – Necessary for the function of nerves

VITAMINS Fat-soluble vitamins or Water soluble vitamins Which one of these poses a greater risk of toxicity?

MINERALS Minerals – Simple substance found in the environment that are essential to the body’s functioning. There are two types: macro-minerals and trace-minerals.

MINERALS Macro-minerals – Minerals that are required in amounts greater than 100 mg. Calcium – Builds up bones and teeth. Sodium – Help in nerve cell conduction. Trace-minerals – Minerals that are needed in very small amounts. Iron – Aids red blood cells in transporting oxygen. Zinc – Necessary for digestive enzymes and healing wounds.

VITAMIN A SKIN

VITAMIN D

VITAMIN K Necessary for normal blood clotting

TRACE MINERAL - IRON Aids in transporting oxygen. Found in red meats, fish, eggs, etc…

MACRO MINERAL - SODIUM

WATER Water – Is the most abundant nutrient. It’s found all throughout your body (Brain 70%/Lungs 90%). Water carries dissolved nutrients throughout your body and assists with other functions. These functions included: 1.Digesting foods 2.Removing waste 3.Regulating temperature 4.Cushioning sensitive parts of your body.

WATER Each day you lose 2-3 quarts of water when your breathing, perspiring, and urinating. Dehydration – The loss of water from body tissues. Weakens the body and can cause muscle cramps, headaches, and possibly death. Electrolytes –Play an important role in water balance and controls the flow of water in & out of the cells. Clip:
