Vitamins
Vitamins
 Vitamins are organic compounds that people need in small quantities.
 Recommended amounts of different types of vitamins may be expressed in
milligrams (mg), micrograms (mcg), or international units (IU), depending on the
nutrient.
The 13 known vitamins fall into two categories:
 Fat soluble Vitamins
 Water soluble Vitamins
Water Soluble Vitamins
Water soluble vitamins include
 Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)
 B1 Thiamin
 B2 Riboflavin
 B3 Niacin
 B5 Pantothenic acid
 B6 Vitamin (pyridoxine, Pyridoxal and pyridoxamine)
 B7 Biotin
 B9 Folacin
 B12 vitamin
Fat-Soluble Vitamins
 Fat soluble vitamin include
 vitamin A
 D
 E
 K
because they are soluble in organic solvents and are absorbed and transported in
manner similar to that of fats.
Causes of Deficiencies General
 1. Failure to take the proper quantity and quality of foods to meet individual
requirements
 2. Inadequate intake of food because of gastrointestinal disorders e.g. acidity
 3. Defective absorption or utilization of food because of gastrointestinal disorders
e.g. chronic diarrhea, intestinal parasitism.
Causes of Deficiencies General
 4. Increased need for food in conditional cases
 5. Impaired metabolism of nutrients, hereditary or acquired (liver damage, drugs).
 6. Interaction of drugs and nutrients.
Water – Soluble Vitamins
Thiamin B1
Although thiamine is needed for the
metabolism of fats, protein and nucleic acids,
it is most strongly linked with carbohydrate
metabolism.
The decarboxylation of pyruvate, which is
concerned only with carbohydrate
metabolism, is the first to suffer from thiamine
deficiency.
Deficiencies of Vitamin B1
 Clinical signs of thiamine deficiency primarily involve the nervous and cardiovascular
systems, eventually expressed in the deficiency disease of beriberi.
 Symptoms include mental confusion, muscular wasting, edema (wet beriberi)
peripheral paralysis, tachycardia and enlarged heart.
 In dry beriberi symptoms are peripheral neuropathy with loss of function or paralysis of
the lower extremities.
 Neuropathy in diabetics
 Cause fatigue and malaise in old age

Riboflavin B2
Riboflavin combines with
phosphoric acid to become part
of the structure of co-enzymes,
FMN and FAD.
These co-enzymes catalyze
oxidation-reduction reactions in
the cells and function as
hydrogen carriers in the
mitochondrial electron transport
system.
Deficiencies of Vitamin B2
 Early deficiency symptoms include burning and itching of the eyes, loss of visual
acuity, and soreness and burning of lips, mouth and tongue.
 Riboflavinosis is characterized by the development of cheilosis (fissuring of the
lips) angular stomatitis (cracks in the skin at the corners of the mouth) a greasy
eruption of the skin of vagina; a purple swollen tongue; and capillary overgrowth
around the cornea of the eye.
 Cell repair and energy metabolism.

Pyridoxine B6
co-enzyme that function primarily
in transamination and other
reactions related to protein
metabolism.
As a co-enzyme for phosphorylase
pyridoxine facilitates the release of
glycogen from the liver and muscle
as glucose-1-phosphate.
The formation of sphingolipids
(phospholipids), involved in the
development of the myelin sheath
surrounding nerve cells is also
vitamin B6 dependent.
Deficiencies of Vitamin B6
 Vitamin B6 deficiency may accompany alcoholism because alcohol and alcoholic
liver disease can interfere with normal vitamin B6 metabolism.
 Extreme pyridoxine deficiency leads to CNS abnormalities.
 A deficiency syndrome has been identified in mentally retarded children with
uncontrollable convulsions from birth due to an inborn error of vitamin B6
metabolism.
 It is thought that these children are unable to synthesize GABA (neurotransmitter)

B12
Cobalamin is essential for normal
function in the metabolism of all
cells, especially those of the G.I.
tract, bone marrow, and nervous
tissue.
Vitamin B12 affects myelin
formation.
It is also effective as extrinsic
factor in the treatment of
pernicious anemia
Deficiencies of Vitamin B12
 Impaired DNA synthesis results in defective proliferation of rapidly dividing cells
and is manifested by megaloblastic anemia, glossitis. Distortion of intestinal
architecture results in G.I. disorders.
 A lack of Vitamin B12 results in subacute degeneration of cerebral white matter,
optic nerves, spinal cord and peripheral nerves in diabetics. Symptoms include
numbness, tingling, and burning of the feet as well as stiffness and generalized
weakness of the legs.
 Many believe Vitamin B12 deficiency to be a common disorder in the elderly.
 Breast-fed infants of vegetarian mothers may also be at risk.

component of the co-enzyme NAD
and NADP.
These co-enzymes are essential in
the oxidation-reduction reactions
and boost Immunity
involved in the release of energy
from carbohydrates, fats and
proteins, where they serve as
hydrogen acceptors capable of
accepting and releasing hydrogen
atoms as they are removed by the
dehydrogenase enzyme.
Deficiencies of Niacin
 Symptoms of niacin deficiency in the early stages include muscular weakness,
anorexia, indigestion, and skin eruptions.
 Severe deficiency of niacin leads to pellagra, which is characterized by dermatitis,
dementia, diarrhea, tremors and sore tongue. The skin develops a cracked
pigmented, scaly dermatitis in the areas exposed to sun.
 Lesion in the central nervous system leads to confusion, disorientation, and
neuritis.
 Digestive abnormalities cause irritation and inflammation of the mucous
membranes of the mouth and the gastro-intestinal tract.

Vitamin D
Normal calcium and phosphate
metabolism are dependent on
proper levels of vitamin D.
Bile production
Deficiencies of Vitamin D
 Vitamin D deficiency in infants and children rapidly leads to a serious metabolic
bone disease known as rickets. In the adult, only small amounts of calcium are
necessary to maintain balance and vitamin serves a much less important function.
 Vitamin D is usually given by mouth, and gastrointestinal absorption is adequate
under most circumstances.
 Bile is essential for adequate intestinal absorption and deoxycholic acid is the
most important constituent of bile in this regard.
 The chief therapeutic uses of Vitamin D are in infant feeding for the prophylaxis
of rickets and in the treatment of hypoparathyroidism.

Vitamin E
(Tocopherol)
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin.
Vitamin E is recognized as
having a fundamental role in the
normal metabolism of all cells.
Therefore, its deficiency can
affect several different organ
systems.
Renowned antioxidant
Deficiencies of Vitamin E
 In the neuromuscular system vitamin E deficiency is manifested clinically as loss of
deep tendon reflexes, impaired vibratory and position sensation, changes in balance
and coordination, muscles weakness, and visual disturbances.
 Vitamin E needs some fat for the digestive system to absorb it.
 Vitamin E deficiency can cause nerve and muscle damage that results in loss of feeling
in the arms and legs, loss of body movement control, muscle weakness, and vision
problems.
 Another sign of deficiency is a weakened immune system.

Coenzyme Q10 also seems to
have antioxidant activity.
Deficiencies and Recommendations
 A lack of functional protein produced from any one of the COQ genes decreases
the normal production of coenzyme Q10.
 Studies suggest that a shortage (deficiency) of coenzyme Q10 impairs oxidative
phosphorylation and increases the vulnerability of cells to damage from free
radicals.
 Infertility in males
 De arranged lipid profile leading to cardiac complications.
 90–200 mg

Dill Oil
 Dill seed is sometimes applied to the mouth
and throat for pain and swelling
(inflammation).
 Rich in antioxidants and a good source of
vitamin C, magnesium, and vitamin A.
 Dill may have several benefits for health,
including protection against heart disease and
cancer. However, it's important to keep in
mind that most studies looking at the benefits
of dill use dill extracts.
Dill (Anethum graveolens) is the
perfect plant to have on hand at
this time of the year because it is
so good at soothing indigestion.
Both the seeds and leaves can be
made into a tea that will ease a
stomach-ache caused by wind,
and dill water will relieve colic.

 Fennel's dried ripe seeds and oil are used to
make medicine. Fennel is used by mouth for
excessive crying in infants (colic), indigestion
(dyspepsia), menstrual cramps
(dysmenorrhea), and symptoms of
menopause, but there is no good scientific
evidence to support these uses.
Fennel is a digestive tract savior.
The seeds have a compound that
relaxes GI spasms, which allows gas
to pass and relieve bloating
In foods and beverages, fennel oil
and fennel seed are used as
flavoring agents.
used as a flavoring agent in certain
laxatives, and as a fragrance

The 13 known vitamins fall into two categories:  Fat soluble Vitamins  Water soluble Vitamins
  • 10. Water Soluble Vitamins Water soluble vitamins include  Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)  B1 Thiamin  B2 Riboflavin  B3 Niacin  B5 Pantothenic acid  B6 Vitamin (pyridoxine, Pyridoxal and pyridoxamine)  B7 Biotin  B9 Folacin  B12 vitamin
  • 11. Fat-Soluble Vitamins  Fat soluble vitamin include  vitamin A  D  E  K because they are soluble in organic solvents and are absorbed and transported in manner similar to that of fats.
  • 12. Causes of Deficiencies General  1. Failure to take the proper quantity and quality of foods to meet individual requirements  2. Inadequate intake of food because of gastrointestinal disorders e.g. acidity  3. Defective absorption or utilization of food because of gastrointestinal disorders e.g. chronic diarrhea, intestinal parasitism.
  • 13. Causes of Deficiencies General  4. Increased need for food in conditional cases  5. Impaired metabolism of nutrients, hereditary or acquired (liver damage, drugs).  6. Interaction of drugs and nutrients.
  • 14. Water – Soluble Vitamins
  • 15. Thiamin B1 Although thiamine is needed for the metabolism of fats, protein and nucleic acids, it is most strongly linked with carbohydrate metabolism. The decarboxylation of pyruvate, which is concerned only with carbohydrate metabolism, is the first to suffer from thiamine deficiency.
  • 16. Deficiencies of Vitamin B1  Clinical signs of thiamine deficiency primarily involve the nervous and cardiovascular systems, eventually expressed in the deficiency disease of beriberi.  Symptoms include mental confusion, muscular wasting, edema (wet beriberi) peripheral paralysis, tachycardia and enlarged heart.  In dry beriberi symptoms are peripheral neuropathy with loss of function or paralysis of the lower extremities.  Neuropathy in diabetics  Cause fatigue and malaise in old age
  • 17. Recommended Dietary Allowance Table Age RDA Age RDA Infants 1-6 months 0.3 mg Females 11-50 years 1.1 mg 7-12 months 0.4 mg 50+ years 1.0 mg Children 1-3 years 0.7 mg Pregnant 1.5 mg 4-6 years 0.9 mg Lactating 1.6 mg 7-10 years 1.0 mg Males 11-14 years 1.3 mg 15-50 years 1.5 mg 51+ years 1.2 mg *Recommended Dietary Allowances, 10th edition, c. 1989 byNAS.
  • 18. Riboflavin B2 Riboflavin combines with phosphoric acid to become part of the structure of co-enzymes, FMN and FAD. These co-enzymes catalyze oxidation-reduction reactions in the cells and function as hydrogen carriers in the mitochondrial electron transport system.
  • 19. Deficiencies of Vitamin B2  Early deficiency symptoms include burning and itching of the eyes, loss of visual acuity, and soreness and burning of lips, mouth and tongue.  Riboflavinosis is characterized by the development of cheilosis (fissuring of the lips) angular stomatitis (cracks in the skin at the corners of the mouth) a greasy eruption of the skin of vagina; a purple swollen tongue; and capillary overgrowth around the cornea of the eye.  Cell repair and energy metabolism.
  • 20. Recommended Dietary Allowance Table Infants Age 1 year RDA 0.4-0.5 mg Children 1-10 years 0.8-1.2 mg Males Females 11-14 years 15-18 years 19-50 years 51+ years Pregnant Lactating(1st 6 months) Lactating(2nd 6 months) 1.5 mg 1.8 mg 1.7 mg 1.4 mg 1.6 mg 1.8 mg 1.7 mg
  • 21. Pyridoxine B6 co-enzyme that function primarily in transamination and other reactions related to protein metabolism. As a co-enzyme for phosphorylase pyridoxine facilitates the release of glycogen from the liver and muscle as glucose-1-phosphate. The formation of sphingolipids (phospholipids), involved in the development of the myelin sheath surrounding nerve cells is also vitamin B6 dependent.
  • 22. Deficiencies of Vitamin B6  Vitamin B6 deficiency may accompany alcoholism because alcohol and alcoholic liver disease can interfere with normal vitamin B6 metabolism.  Extreme pyridoxine deficiency leads to CNS abnormalities.  A deficiency syndrome has been identified in mentally retarded children with uncontrollable convulsions from birth due to an inborn error of vitamin B6 metabolism.  It is thought that these children are unable to synthesize GABA (neurotransmitter)
  • 23. Recommended Dietary Allowance Age RDA 1-6 months 0.3 mg 7-12 months 0.6 mg 1-3 years 1.0 mg 4-6 years 1.1 mg 7-10 years 1.4 mg 11-14 years 1.7 mg 15 + years 2.0 mg 11-14 years 1.4 mg 15-18 years 1.5 mg 19 + years 1.6 mg Pregnant 2.2 mg Lactating 2.1 mg *From Food and Nutrition Board, National Research Council, NAS.
  • 24. Cyanocobalamin B12 Cobalamin is essential for normal function in the metabolism of all cells, especially those of the G.I. tract, bone marrow, and nervous tissue. Vitamin B12 affects myelin formation. It is also effective as extrinsic factor in the treatment of pernicious anemia
  • 25. Deficiencies of Vitamin B12  Impaired DNA synthesis results in defective proliferation of rapidly dividing cells and is manifested by megaloblastic anemia, glossitis. Distortion of intestinal architecture results in G.I. disorders.  A lack of Vitamin B12 results in subacute degeneration of cerebral white matter, optic nerves, spinal cord and peripheral nerves in diabetics. Symptoms include numbness, tingling, and burning of the feet as well as stiffness and generalized weakness of the legs.  Many believe Vitamin B12 deficiency to be a common disorder in the elderly.  Breast-fed infants of vegetarian mothers may also be at risk.
  • 26. Recommended Dietary Allowance Age RDA Infants 1-6 months 0.3 mcg 7-12 months 0.5 mcg Children 1-3 years 0.7 mcg 4-6 years 1.0 mcg 7-10 years 1.4 mcg Males 11-51 years 2.0 mcg 51 + years 2.0 mcg Females 11-50 years 2.0 mcg 51 + years 2.0 mcg Pregnant 2.2 mcg Lactating 2.6 mcg * From Food and Nutrition Board, NRC, NAS, RDA, 10th edition, 1989
  • 27. Niacin B3 Functions in the body as a component of the co-enzyme NAD and NADP. These co-enzymes are essential in the oxidation-reduction reactions and boost Immunity involved in the release of energy from carbohydrates, fats and proteins, where they serve as hydrogen acceptors capable of accepting and releasing hydrogen atoms as they are removed by the dehydrogenase enzyme.
  • 28. Deficiencies of Niacin  Symptoms of niacin deficiency in the early stages include muscular weakness, anorexia, indigestion, and skin eruptions.  Severe deficiency of niacin leads to pellagra, which is characterized by dermatitis, dementia, diarrhea, tremors and sore tongue.
