Vitamin supplementation in disease prevention
Vitamins are chemically unrelated organic compounds or families of organic compounds that are essential for normal metabolism in humans. As vitamines cannot be synthesized by a human body, they have to be taken in small amounts in the diet to prevent metabolic disorders. Vitamins should be distinguished from other food supplements, minerals and herbs, which are also taken in small amounts as alternatives or supplements to drugs. Mild deficiencies in several vitamins, at levels below those causing clascic vitamin deficiency syndromes are risk factors for chronic degenerative diseases such as atherosclerosis, cancer, and osteoporosis.
