Vitamins


Vitamins are essential nutrients that your body cannot make. They are necessary for life and must be obtained in the diet or as supplements. It is always better to obtain nutrients through foods, when possible. Vitamins are classified as either fat-soluble or as water-soluble.

Fat-soluble vitamins are A, D, E, and K. They are better absorbed along with some oil. Water-soluble vitamins are vitamin C and all the B vitamins.

The RDA lists the amounts of each nutrient that is needed to prevent deficiency diseases, not what amounts are necessary to maintain good health.
