Vitamins
Vitamins are vital for human life because they play integral roles in hundreds
of life-sustaining biochemical reactions. Vitamins are the catalysts for all
reactions using proteins, fats and carbohydrates for energy, growth and cell
maintenance. Certain nutrients are required in excess of the typical amounts
supplied in the diet depending on specific nutritional needs. Consuming dietary
vitamin and mineral supplements may help play an important role in maintaining
good health. For the most part, vitamins cannot be produced in the body and must
be supplied through the diet or vitamin and mineral supplements.
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is the only vitamin
that contains cobalt, a trace mineral. It is essential to help maintain the
normal functioning of all body cells, especially those of the bone marrow,
gastrointestinal tract, and nervous system. B12 is also necessary for forming
red blood cells. The metabolism of vitamin B12 is closely correlated with folate
(folic acid) metabolism.
