Organic vitamins and minerals: essential nutrients for a healthy life

Why are vitamins and minerals so important for our body and our health?

Vitamins and minerals are essential micronutrients that our bodies need for a variety of vital processes and play a key role in maintaining our health. Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can lead to dizziness, headaches and other ailments. In today's world, where stress and a hectic pace often dominate everyday life, it is more important than ever to cover your daily micronutrient requirements. With our nutritional supplements, however, this is very easy. Take a look around - our supplements are all vegan and of high quality!

What are the functions of vitamins and minerals?

On the one hand, they support our metabolism by contributing to the breakdown of nutrients, energy production and the manufacture of essential molecules. B-complex vitamins in particular regulate the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. They also promote growth and are essential for physical development - especially for bone growth, cell division and the development of the nervous system. Vitamins and minerals therefore play a crucial role for children and adolescents.

In addition, micronutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc and iron strengthen our immune system, stimulate the production of antibodies necessary to fight pathogens and ensure a faster healing process in the event of injuries. They also make a significant contribution to the growth and regeneration of your skin, hair and nails and make them look healthier.

Minerals such as calcium, magnesium and phosphorus are also particularly important for the formation and maintenance of bones and teeth and the regulation of bone mineral density. Vitamins also bind harmful oxygen compounds (free radicals) and, as powerful antioxidants, protect our body from oxidative stress.

Everyone knows that micronutrients are vital for our health and our bodies. This makes it all the more important to consume enough of them in our everyday lives - and everyone should pay attention to this every day!

First and foremost, it is important to eat a balanced and varied diet. Fruit, vegetables, wholegrain products, pulses and nuts in particular provide numerous vitamins and minerals. However, it is often not possible to cover your daily requirements through your diet. A lack of vitamins and minerals then becomes noticeable more quickly than you would like. For example, you are constantly sluggish and tired, have headaches, difficulty concentrating or dizzy spells. Circulatory and digestive problems are also among the signs of vitamin and mineral deficiency. If such symptoms occur, it can be helpful to take high-quality food supplements.

The power of sunlight: vitamin D

Vitamin D is one of the most important nutrients for your health and general well-being. It is often referred to as the "sunshine vitamin" and plays a crucial role in many bodily functions. Above all, vitamin D helps to maintain bone health and immune function. The "sun vitamin" can be produced by the body itself when our skin is exposed to sunlight. However, many people do not get enough sunlight, especially in the winter months or in regions with little sunlight. Supplementation of this important vitamin D is then often necessary and should not be underestimated for your well-being.

So always make sure you get enough sunlight during the day or take vitamin D supplements regularly.
