To keep our energy up and maintain resistance against sickness, we eat a well-balanced meal, we exercise and we take vitamins. Regular vitmin intake helps us meet the nutrients we need everydy, and helps the body release the energy from the food we et to maintain optimal health.

Multivitamins work together to regular several bodily processes for growth, development, reproduction, resistance against sickness, and many other body functions. Proteins, carbohydrates and fats in our body combine with vitamins to give us energy.

Water-soluble vitamins such as B vitamins and Vitamin C, which are absorbed by the body and carried by the circulatory system to the specific tissues where they will be put to use, are not stored by the body in substantial amounts. When we take in more wter-soluble vitamins than needed, the excess is excreted through urine. On the other hand, fat-soluble vitamins such as Vitamins A, D, E nd K which have highly specialize functions, are stored by the body in larger amounts.

It is necessary to replenish the vitamins we lose through food and supplements.
