Vitamins are very important to the body because, although vitamins do not provide energy or make up our cells or organs, without vitamins the body cannot carry out many of the chemical processes it needs. Vitamins interact with other nutrients in processes such as metabolism, digestion and developing blood cells and some vitamins are said to slow down the ageing process, prevent cancerous cells attacking the body and strengthen the immune system.<br /> <br /> No single food contains all of the vitamins and, therefore, a balanced and varied diet is necessary for an adequate intake. Each of the <b>13 vitamins</b> known today has specific functions in the body, which makes every one of them unique and irreplaceable. <b>Vitamins are essential for life!</b> <br /> <br /> <b>There are 13 different <span style="color: red;">Vitamins</span> and they are divided into two categories :</b><br /> 1. Water-soluble Vitamins - Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, and Vitamin K<br /> 2. Fat-soluble Vitamins - Vitamin B-family(B1, B2, B3/Niacin, B5, Vitamin C <br /> <br /> <b>Difference Between Water-soluble <span style="color: red;">Vitamins</span> and Fat-soluble <span style="color: red;">Vitamins</span> :</b><br /> Fat-soluble Vitamins can be stored in our body thru body tissues, which is why we do not need to take these Vitamins everyday. Water-soluble Vitamins, on the other hand, are everyday-Vitamins, meaning our body does not store these kind of Vitamins (excess are taken out thru our urine), that's why we have to load up on this kind of Vitamins everyday.<br /> <br /> <b>Future <span style="color: red;">Vitamins</span> Post</b> <br /> In future posts, this Vitamins and Supplements Blog will talk about different Vitamins as enumerated above (as well as other supplements, minerals, etc.). The posts about Vitamins and Supplements will be divided into the following portions :<br /> A. Brief Description of Vitamins or Supplements<br /> B.
