Understanding Vitamins
• A few myths…• If a little is good, then a lot is
better.• Vitamins are energy boosters.• Vitamins work exclusively of
one another.• Vitamins in foods
• Natural sources: all food groups• Enriched and fortified foods
![Page 3: Nutrition e5 Chapter 10](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020310/568c552c1a28ab4916c1b5a8/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Understanding Vitamins
• Anatomy of the Vitamins• Daily needs are small• Not an energy source• Individual units• Organic compounds essential for normal
functioning, growth, and maintenance• Functions often interrelated

Fat-Soluble Versus Water-Soluble Vitamins
• Fat-soluble• Vitamins A, D, E, and K
• Water-soluble• B vitamins and vitamin C

Understanding Vitamins
• Fat-soluble• Vitamins A, D, E, and K• Absorbed like fat, into lymphatic system• Stored in larger quantities, therefore,
toxicities may occur• May have precursors• Less vulnerable to cooking losses

Understanding Vitamins
• Water-soluble• Eight B-vitamins and vitamin C• Absorbed into bloodstream• Stored in small amounts• Vulnerable to cooking losses

Vitamins: An Overview
• All types of foods contain vitamins. Provitamins are vitamin precursors that the body can convert to the active vitamin form. Growing conditions, storage, processing, and cooking all affect the amounts of vitamins in foods.
• For at the last 3,000 years, there has been an empirical understanding that some diseases (which we now call vitamin deficiency diseases) could be cured by eating certain foods.

Mucous Membrane Integrity
• Mucous membranes contain a higher percentage of goblet cells.
• With retinoic acid, fewer stem cells become goblet cells and these surfaces become hard and scaly.
![Page 25: Nutrition e5 Chapter 10](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020310/568c552c1a28ab4916c1b5a8/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Vitamin A and Vision
• Deficiency of vitamin A results in progressive vision loss from temporary night blindness, then reversible blindness, and finally permanent blindness.
• In addition, the lack of mucous secretions and reduced immune function make the person with vitamin A deficiency vulnerable to infections. Vitamin A toxicity can result from the use of supplements, even with dosages just a few times higher than the RDA.

Osteoporosis
• A lack of vitamin D can lead to osteoporosis. • Vitamin D supplements in elderly women
slows bone turnover, increases bone density, and decreases nonvertebral fractures.

Free Radical Damage
• Vitamin E helps prevent free radical damage to polyunsaturated fatty acids in cell membranes.

Vitamin K and Bone Health
• Osteocalcin is an abundant bone protein that is required for bone mineralization and maturation.
• Vitamin K helps in the carboxylation of osteocalcin, greatly enhancing its calcium-binding properties.
