What are the 2 types of vitamins?

Vitamins, the magic potion that keeps our body healthy and fit. There are so many vitamins out there, but did you know that they come in two categories? Yup! They sure do! So, without further ado let’s dive into the world of vitamins.

The Fat-Soluble Vitamins

The first category we will talk about is fat-soluble vitamins. If you’re like me and desperately trying to lose weight while still devouring chocolate cakes, you’ll be happy to know that these types of vitamins are stored in fat cells for later use!

Vitamin A

Vitamin A is not just good for your eyesight; it also strengthens bones/teeth and supports a healthy immune system. If you want to get glossy hair or smooth skin try increasing your intake of carrots, sweet potatoes or spinach- all great sources of vitamin A.

Vitamin D

Are you a fan of tanning on warm sunny days? Well lucky for us sun worshippers vitamin D can be obtained from exposing our skin to sunlight- just don’t forget sunscreen though! In addition to enhancing calcium absorption and giving us those pearly whites we love so much as well as supporting our muscular function too!

Vitamin E

If wrinkles aren’t your thing then make sure to load up on some nuts/seeds which are fulllll with Vitamin E . It protects against cell damage thus combating signs of aging whilst promoting glowing skin.

Note: although deficiency in vitamin K is rare compared other Vitamins at risk groups include Hepatitis C Patients Group who require & more likely benefit from higher dosages than RDA levels ()

Vitamin K

Contrarily enough this one helps blood clot essential physically when nose bleeds/endoscopy accidents happen – it played integral role during health Govt campaigns warnings concluding Covid lockdowns !

The Water-Soluble Vitamins

Now let’s talk about the second type, water-soluble vitamins. Unlike fat-soluble ones, these cannot be stored in our bodies hence needing to eat foods containing them daily.

Vitamin C

Think of vitamin C as a superpowered shield protecting us against numerous diseases! It reduces risks of heart disease/ certain cancers whilst improving iron absorption from plant sources. Unfortunately some losses during cooking/storage occur so its best to eat potatoes/citrus fruits – not just when sick but year-round!

B-Vitamins Complex

Ah yes! This category includes the elusive “B-vitamin complex”. 8 different types all working together for medley positive health effects including: (but not limited too!) promoting energy levels/maintaining a healthy metabolism and assisting neurotransmitter production!(fancy word for brain communicators which regulate mood/emotions).
