Vital Vitamins (Lesson 7)

In this lesson, you will learn about the two major types of vitamins, the fat-soluble and water-soluble. You will learn how each vitamin functions in your body and the symptoms of deficiency and over-consumption (toxicity). You will also learn which foods are the best sources of each vitamin and the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for each. Finally, this lesson will discuss vitamin supplements - who needs them and who doesn't. This information will help you plan a healthy diet, including all necessary vitamins and nutrients.
