--Vitamins nutrition--- Vitamins nutrition is an essential part of health and wellness, and this is demonstrated by research. In this article, we outline the reasons why we should all have the recommended amounts of vitamins each day. Nutrition is what we provide to our bodies (in the form of food), to support life within our body's cells. A vitamin is part of this nutrition which is required by our bodies for everyday functions. Other essential nutrients such as essential fatty acids, dietary minerals, or essential amino acids, are not included in the term vitamin. Our bodies do not naturally produce vitamins, so we must obtain them from food or supplements. There are currently 13 different compounds recognized as vitamins, and these include A, D, E, K, C and 8 different B vitamins. --Each vitamin plays it's own role-- Each vitamin plays it's own role in keeping different parts of the body healthy. Vitamin A plays a huge role in healthy eyesight, it has antioxidant properties, and appears to function in maintaining normal skin health. Healthy body tissues and muscles are the role of vitamin C, and also increases the body's immunity and has antioxidant properties. Vitamin D is good for strong bones and is also critical for overall health. The body's defense systems are supported by vitamin E, as well as it supporting a healthy heart. Researchers suggest that vitamin E may prove useful in the prevention of heart disease when taken for extended periods of time. Any more Ideas and tips then feel free to share here...

Simon, I no longer get hung up on the fat calorie issue and calories in general. The problem is the food value per calorie. Calories which come from good foods (colourful vegetables/fruits and free range meats) are to my mind good. Those which are sugar and grain based are not good. I look for vitamins, polyphenols and protein high foods. So butter is good as is olive oil, but I don't like the newer mass produced oils. For the fat fearful remember that during the war in the UK people were rationed to "only" one and a half pounds of saturated fat per person per week. This was dropped to about half that by the end of the war (with only 2 oz of butter each per week). This is roughly 8 - 12 times what is recommended currently. Were they fat then or are they fat now?

I strongly believe that we need to take a quality mineral supplement to make up for what we DO NOT receive from plants grown in depleted soil. And a good supply of D3 for those who can't get outside often.
