| "Vitamins,
the important supplement for your body to develop and adjust to the
training." Quote
from Matty
You've probably heard at least one parent say,
"Don't forget your vitamins !" "Eat your vegetables -
they are packed with vitamins!" We hear this so often but what
exactly are vitamins?
Vitamins and minerals are substances that are found in the food we eat.
Your body needs them to function properly, so you can grow and develop
and go about doing daily activities with ease. When it comes to vitamins,
different vitamins has its own special role to play. For example:
กค Vitamin D in milk helps your bones.
กค Vitamin A in carrots helps you see at night.
กค Vitamin C in oranges helps your body heal if you get a cut.
กค Vitamin B in leafy green vegetables help your body make protein and
energy.
Your body is one powerful machine. It can do all sorts of things but
it can't produce vitamins. And thus eating food with high vitamins is
very important. All food contains different vitamins so you must eat
widely. Fruits and vegetables are excellent sources of vitamins. As
the saying goes, an apple a day keeps the doctor away!
