In this video I discuss what are vitamins, what do vitamins do, and how many vitamins are there. I also discuss the different types of vitamins, water soluble vitamins and fat soluble vitamins. Transcript Intro Whats up dude, and whats up ladies? Bryan again, and in this video I am going to discuss vitamins. We are going to discuss what they are, how many of them there are, and the 2 different categories of vitamins, so, lets roll. So, what exactly are vitamins? Vitamins are non-caloric micronutrients that are needed in small amounts for normal body functions. The best way to consume vitamins is through a variety of nutrient-dense foods. Supplements can be used to treat certain health concerns but there is insufficient evidence of any nutritional benefit in healthy people. However if supplements are consumed choosing a whole food based vitamin may be a viable option. There are a total of 13 vitamins, which are divided into 2 categories, water- soluble which includes vitamin B’s and C; and fat -soluble vitamins A,D,E and K. Water-soluble vitamins cannot be stored in the body, except for B6 and B12, and are readily excreted if not used. Because water-soluble vitamins are not stored in the body, consistent daily intake is important to avoid deficiencies. Water –soluble vitamins are necessary for enzymes involved in metabolism, without water soluble vitamins the enzymes will not work. Unlike water-soluble vitamins, fat-soluble vitamins can be stored in the body for extended periods of time and later excreted. This storage usually occurs in the liver and adipose tissue.. The ability for the healthy body to store fat-soluble vitamins decreases the risk of deficiencies however, over consumption can lead to toxicity, also referred to as hypervitaminosis. When consuming our vitamins through foods, the risk of over consumption is extremely rare. The risk of toxicity usually occurs through high amounts of supplementation. In our vitamin video series, we will be giving each vitamin a rating of 1 to 5. 1 representing little concern and 5 for greatest concern. This is based on if most people are getting enough through their diet. Bottom line: We will discuss the benefits and sources of individual vitamins in future videos. Keep in mind that eating a balanced diet can be difficult. But, try to eat a variety of fruits and vegetables with vibrant colors to consume all of the vital nutrients your body needs. With that said ask your doctor about any possible vitamin deficiencies and alter your diet/supplementation if needed. Comments and questions…like or dislike below.
