Vitamins and minerals are essential to your health—you have to have them to stay alive and to be healthy. Vitamins and minerals are also needed to make the thousands of enzymes, hormones, and other chemical messengers your body uses to grow, repair itself, make energy, remove wastes, defend you against infection, and generally keep you running smoothly. You also need them to keep your bones strong, your eyes sharp, and your brain alert. And, most important of all, you need them to help protect you against cancer and heart disease. If you don't get a particular vitamin or minerals for a long time, you develop a vitamins deficiency. If the deficiency goes on long enough, you get a vitamin deficiency disease
Because vitamins are natural substances found in foods, the supplements you take—be they capsules, tablets, powders, or liquids—also come from foods. Though many of the vitamins can be synthesized, most are extracted from basic natural sources.
