Vitamins are chemical compounds. Minerals are chemical elements.
Vitamins and minerals are both nutrients found in the food we eat.
Vitamins help convert our food into tissue and into energy by controlling the
chemical reactions in our bodies. Vitamins are only needed in small amounts.
They act as a regulator, helping burn energy from nutrients and maintaining our
body's tissues.
Minerals are needed for building bone, transmitting signals through nerves and
maintaining our heart beat. Minerals are also needed to produce hormones.
Four of a total of thirteen vitamins are produced within the body. Biotin,
pantothenic acid and vitamin K are made in the intestine. Our skin's surfaces
reacts with sunlight to produce vitamin K. The remaining vitamins must come from
our diets.
Our body's have specific needs for each vitamin and each mineral. In addition, a
deficiency of one vitamin or mineral can interfere with another vitamin or
mineral's function. Vitamin and mineral deficiency can cause diseases like
rickets, scurvy, beriberi and pellagra.
