2.  Fat-Soluble Vitamins are vitamins A,D,E, and K and dissolve in fat  Water-Soluble Vitamins are the B-complex vitamins and vitamin C and dissolve in water  Toxicity is a poisonous condition

3.  A vitamin is an organic compound needed in tiny amounts as a nutrient to regulate body processes  Have no calorie value because they yield no energy  Vitamins assist with ◦ Nutrient metabolism ◦ Energy production & release ◦ Tissue maintenance ◦ Normal digestion ◦ Infection resistance

4.  1912 Casmir Funk coined the world vitamine ◦ Vita means life ◦ Amine- a certain chemical structure that contains nitrogen ◦ E was dropped to avoid the chemical structure of proteins or confusion of the compound  Vitamins help the body release energy needed for physical activity  13 known vitamins ◦ Most referred to a letter  A,C,D,E and K ◦ Most of the B vitamins are known by name  Riboflavin, thiamin, niacin ◦ Different vitamins do not share a typical molecular structure

15.  Main function- to make proteins needed in coagulation of blood  Coagulation – clotting-process that stops bleeding  Needed to make protein ◦ Helps bones collect the minerals they need for strength  14 to 18 males & females the AI for V.K. is 75 micrograms per day  Good sources of V.K. ◦ Green leafy veggies ◦ Liver ◦ Fruits ◦ Milk ◦ Meat ◦ Eggs ◦ Grain products  Newborns can be at risk for V.K. deficiency  Toxicity is rare

16.  Plays a role in energy metabolism  Required for normal functioning of the nerves & muscles they control  More calories you burn more thiamin you need  14-18 have high daily calorie needs  RDA-Males-1.2 milligrams per day  RDA-Females-1.0 milligrams per day

17.  Sources ◦ Whole grain breads ◦ Cereal ◦ Refined grain products ◦ Pork products ◦ Dried beans  Nuts  Seeds  Body doesn’t store much thiamin so it needs to be enriched everyday  Beriberi- deficiency disease-body cant perform the tasks required for everyday living

18.  Helps body release energy from carbohydrates, fats, & proteins  Need it for healthy skin & normal eyesight  Late teen males & females 1.8 and 1.3 milligrams  Sources ◦ Milk ◦ Milk products ◦ Enriched whole grain cereals ◦ Meats ◦ Poultry ◦ Fish  Deficiencies ◦ Inflamed tongue ◦ Cracked skin around the corners of the mouth ◦ Various eye disorders ◦ Mental confusion

30.  Absorption- passage of nutrient from the digestive tract into the circulatory or lymphatic system  - most absorption happens in small Intestine- covered with villi-tiny, finger like projection that give velvety texture - Water – soluble nutrients- dissolve in water - Fat- soluble nutrients-dissolve in fat metabolism.
