Vitamins For Health The word 'vitamin' has its root in 'vitamine' that means vital amine. Vitamins are powerful organic compounds found mainly in the food that we eat. Vitamins are essential for all human beings because they help cells and tissues to perform basic functions. Basically, vitamins are required for the growth of the body. There are two types of vitamins- the water solublevitamins and the fat soluble vitamins. Fat soluble vitamins are also called hormones. All the commonly known vitamins are water soluble vitamins, of which vitamin C or ascorbic acid is the most common. Earlier it was believed that all these vitamins belong to one group called B complex as they were all found in the same source. Later they were categorized as different vitamins. Vitamin A, B1, B3, B5, B9, D, E, H, K, P, Choline and Inositol are some of the other vitamins. Few of thesevitamins are known by their biological names, like vitamin B1 is known as thiamine and vitamin H, Biotin. Vitamins form an essential component of the balanced diet that we eat. People with chronic illnesses are advised to take vitamin supplements by their doctors. Pregnant women and people suffering from bowel disorders need to watch out their vitamin intake. Bowel disorder retards the absorption of fat soluble vitamin. Folic acid is prescribed for a person suffering from thalassaemia. Patients with pernicious anemia have to be given injections of vitamin B12 because of its acute deficiency in their body. We need small amounts of these vitamins on regular basis to help the body function smoothly and remain healthy. These vitamins help the organs to carry out their individual functions. In the absence of these vitamins, our body falls sick and suffers from vitamin deficiency diseases. There are enough vitamins present in our foods but if we don't eat a balanced diet the external supplements will do the needful. Vitamins are useful and mandatory for the body, but excess of everything is bad. Even vitamins taken in excess can cause severe damage to the body. For instance, the body needs only 400 to 800 units of vitamin D in a day. If this amount is exceeded, too much calcium gets absorbed by the bloodstream, which can damage the kidneys. Moreover, supplements can never replace the healthy diets, so it's better to take vitamin-rich diet than take supplements. Last word of caution: Do not take vitamins by gathering information from here and there. Consult your doctor. Remember, little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

Popular Websites for Online Shopping With the increasing popularity of online shopping has come a variety of new opportunities for online shoppers. The wide variety of options available to online shoppers makes shopping for all types of products incredibly convenient. Consumers can now purchase everything from groceries to clothing and electronics and appliances to automobiles. Even items such as jewelry and rare collectibles can be purchased online. With so manyonline shopping opportunities available, consumers might be confused about which options are the best for them. This article will discuss some of the online shopping venues including traditional stores offering online shopping, online retailers who operate exclusively on the Internet and auction websites. Traditional Stores Offering Online Shopping Many of the traditional stores shoppers patronize on a daily basis also have an online presence. This includes retailers of all types of products such as grocery stores selling food and convenience items, popular clothing retailers, retailers of electronics and appliance and general merchandise stores offering a wide array of products for consumer purchase. Examples of these types of stores include Albertsonҳ, Nordstromҳ, Best Buy and Target. Most of these stores offer all of the items available in the traditional store as well as items which are available exclusively at the online store. While the obvious advantage of shopping at a traditional store is the ability to see, try on, test or otherwise examine the products before making the purchase there are also obvious advantages to shopping at the online versions of these same stores. As previously mentioned, there are often items offered for sale which are exclusive to the online store. This gives the consumer a greater selection of products from which to choose. Another obvious advantage is the convenience shopping online offers to consumers. Online stores are open 24 hours a day and seven days a week which gives the online shopper the flexibility to do his shopping when it is convenient for him. It also eliminates the time required to travel to a store. Still another advantage of shopping in online stores over traditional stores is consumers can patronize online stores which do not have a traditional store located near their residence. Online Retailers who Operate Exclusively on the Internet There are also online retailers who operate exclusively on the Internet and do not have a traditional store where shoppers can examine the products available for sale. Here consumers will have to rely on images and product descriptions to select products. However, there are some advantages to patronizing these retailers. One advantage is the prices are often favorable. This is because operating an online store is considerably less expensive than operating a traditional store. This is because there is no need to own or lease a large retail space. The owners of the online store only have to have a facility large enough to store their inventory and an office space large enough to operate the online store. Some online retailers do not even have a storage facility because they have items shipped from the consumer directly from the distributor. This cost savings enables the online retailer to pass along considerable savings to the consumer. Auction Websites Still another option available to online shoppers is the ability to shop at auction websites. This is a different type of shopping experience because although consumers can browse through available items and read product descriptions the shopper is not guaranteed to be able to purchase an item unless they win the auction. Some auction websites do allow sellers to place items for sale instead of up for bid but the vast majority of items available on these websites are available via the auction process. Again there are certain advantages to this type of online shopping. One obvious advantage is the consumer can set a price they are willing to pay for a particular item and do not have to exceed this price. Additionally, they may win the auction with this price resulting in a considerable cost savings. Another advantage to online auction websites is consumers can often find rare items which are hard to find at these websites.
General Information About Vitamins Where does the word "vitamin" come from? The words is derived from the Latin word vita (life) and the biochemical term amine (nitrogen-containing) because vitamins are required for life and were originally thought to be amines. Vitamins are organic compounds required by humans in small amounts from the diet. What are vitamins? A vitamin is an organic (carbon-containing) substances derived from plants and animals that human body must have in very small amounts. Without vitamins the human body would not survive, vitamins are required for normal growth, metabolism (creating energy in your cells), and health.Vitamins are needed to make enzymes and hormones, which are important substances human body uses to make all the chemical reactions needed to live. Most of us get enough of vitamins from our food, but it may be necessary for some people to take a vitamin supplement, because an ongoing shortage of vitamins will lead to failed health, weakness, susceptibility to disease. The body needs at least 13 different vitamins to function properly: Vitamin A - Retinol; Vitamin B complex (B1 - Thiamine; B2 - Riboflavin; B3 - Niacin; B6 - Pyridoxine; B12 - Cyanocobalamin; B9 - Folic acid; B5 - Pantothenic acid; H - Biotin); Vitamin C - Ascorbic acid; Vitamin D - Calciferol (can be obtained through sunlight); Vitamin E - Tocopherol; Vitamin K - Menaquinone. There are two types of vitamins: fat soluble and water-soluble. Fat-soluble vitamins Vitamins A, D, E and K are fat-soluble, they dissolve in fat but not water. Once these vitamins are absorbed by the body, they are stored mostly in the fatty tissues and in the liver. The liver provides the primary storage tissue for vitamins A and D. Vitamin E is stored mainly in body fat and to a lesser extent in reproductive organs. Relatively little vitamin K is stored. Because you can store these vitamins, you don't have to get a supply of them every day. However, eating fats or oils that are not digested can cause shortages of fat-soluble vitamins. On the other hand, getting too much of these vitamins, particularly vitamins A and D, can lead to toxic levels in the body and cause problems. Water-soluble vitamins The water-soluble vitamins - vitamin C and all the B vitamins - need to dissolve in water before your body can absorb them. Because of this, your body can't store these vitamins in any significant amounts. The water-soluble vitamins your body doesn't use are removed by your kidneys and come out in your urine, so you need a fresh supply of these vitamins every day. You can't really overdose on water-soluble vitamins, unless you take truly massive doses. Water-soluble vitamins are easily destroyed or washed out during food storage or preparation. Proper storage and preparation of food can minimize vitamin loss. To reduce vitamin loss, refrigerate fresh produce, keep milk and grains away from strong light, and use the cooking water from vegetables to prepare soups. How to get vitamins? It is best to get the vitamins and minerals your body needs through the food you eat. A daily diet of varied foods can provide you with needed vitamins and minerals for maintaining a healthy body. To get the most vitamins possible from your food, refrigerate fresh produce and keep milk and grains away from strong light. Vitamins are easily destroyed and washed out during food preparation and storage. There are also a number of other factors that deplete our bodies of important vitamins: * Smoking - strips 25mg of vitamin C for each cigarette smoked. * Stress - utilizes a lot of B-complex vitamins and minerals. * Eating sugar and other refined products - will strip chromium, zinc, vitamin B3 and other minerals from the body. Too little of just one vitamin may disturb the body's balance and lead vitamin deficiency. Some deficiencies can be cured simply by eating foods that contains the vitamin that you need. Other deficiencies lead to diseases and conditions that are more difficult to treat. However, taking too many vitamins can also be dangerous. This is especially true of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K: it is harder to get rid of excess of thesevitamins in the body. You should never take extra vitamins and minerals without talking to your doctor first. Your doctor may also suggest taking extra vitamins or minerals if you have certain health problems.
