Vitamins Intro:
I want to give my readers some basic information on the vitamins and their benefits along with what foods they are found in. I plan to go vitamin by vitamin because there are a lot of them and I don’t want to overwhelm you guys with one really big post. I'll start with Vitamin A.
Vitamin A: This is a fat soluble vitamin which means that it is stored in the liver and the body does not flush it out quickly. Vitamin A’s food based form is Beta-Carotene which is safer to take because it is less likely to overdose on at high doses. This vitamin is often used to help with eye health, immune system, skin, and other systems in the body. It is known for helping with night vision. Vitamin A is high in carrots along with sweet potatoes, kale, spinach, broccoli, and eggs. Vitamin A is also an antioxidant which fights against free radicals. Free radicals are unstable oxygen molecules that can ultimately cause cancer and wreak havoc on the body.
There is more to come!
