Superfoods
A lack of nutrition in your blood can cause everything from low energy and a weak immune system to virtually any disease. Your speed and ability to recover are greatly reduced when you are nutritionally depleted. Nutrition is what builds every cell, every organ and every metabolic chemical in your body. Nutrition is what builds your body; it’s what YOU are made of. Having a rich supply of nutrition in your blood gives you energy, vitality, strength, protects you from disease and illness, and if you get sick, speeds up your recovery dramatically.
The body requires vitamins and supplements in tiny amounts (hundredths of a gram in many cases). We get vitamins from these three primary sources:
• Foods
• Beverages
• Our bodies -- Vitamin K and some of the B vitamins are produced by bacteria within our intestines, and vitamin D is formed with the help of ultraviolet radiation, or sunshine, on the skin.

What Exactly Are Vitamins And What Do They Do For Us?
These vitamins accumulate within the fat stores of the body and within the liver. Fat-soluble vitamins, when taken in large amounts, can become toxic. Water-soluble vitamins include vitamin C and the B vitamins. Water-soluble vitamins taken in excess are excreted in the urine but are sometimes associated with toxicity. Both the B vitamins and vitamin C are also stored in the liver.
The B-complex vitamins are actually a group of eight vitamins, which include thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pyridoxine (B6), folic acid (B9), cyanocobalamin (B12), pantothenic acid and biotin. These vitamins are essential for:
• The breakdown of carbohydrates into glucose (this provides energy for the body)
• The breakdown of fats and proteins (which aids the normal functioning of the nervous system)
• Muscle tone in the stomach and intestinal tract
• Skin
• Hair
• Eyes
• Mouth
• Liver
Some doctors and nutritionists suggest taking the B-complex vitamins as a group for overall good health.
