The consumption nutritional supplements shows an increasing trend in recent years due to modern living conditions that often do not allow a balanced diet.
In our health and well-being, the vitamins are a cornerstone. They are substances necessary for the human body, which is indicated by the interpretation of the word since vitamins means amines of life (vital amines). Vitamins are organic substances, necessary for the smooth functioning of our body.
Today they are known by a letter of the Latin alphabet. Vitamins differ from each other in terms of their structure and function and are divided into two categories, water soluble that dissolve in water, such as vitamin C and B vitamins and in fat-soluble that do not dissolve in water, such as vitamins A, D, E and K. With the exception of vitamins D, K and B3, the human body cannot synthesize any other vitamins and therefore must be obtained through food or through specialized nutritional supplements.
The food supplements they provide us with nutrients, which we may not hire in sufficient amounts from our diet. Supplements can be vitamins, inorganic components, amino acids, fatty acids or other substances, and are in the form of effervescent tablets, capsules, liquids, tablets.
Supplements are available in a range of dosages and in different combinations. But our bodies only need a certain amount of each nutrient to function, and getting more isn't necessarily better.
