Vitamins & Minerals
Vitamins and minerals are
essential micronutrients required in small amounts for, metabolism, growth, and cellular function. Vitamins are organic compounds (fat-soluble A, D, E, K; or water-soluble C, B-complex) obtained from food, while minerals are inorganic elements (calcium, iron, zinc) sourced from soil/water. A balanced diet provides these nutrients, though supplements may be needed for deficiencies
