This document discusses vitamins, including their definitions, classifications, sources, functions, deficiencies, and antagonists. It notes that vitamins are organic compounds required in small amounts to perform specific biological functions. They are classified as either fat-soluble (A, D, E, K) or water-soluble (B-complex, C). Most vitamins must be obtained through diet as the body cannot synthesize them. Deficiencies can occur if vitamins are missing from the diet or not absorbed properly. The document also examines provitamins, hypervitaminosis, avitaminosis, and antivitamins.

The Comprehensive Review on Fat Soluble Vitaminsiosrphr_editor
This review article deals with brief description of fat soluble vitamins with figures and tables
showing statistical analytical data duly quoting the references wherever necessary. The word “soluble” actually
means “able to be dissolved.” Whether a vitamin is classified as 'fat-soluble' or 'water-soluble' has to do with
how the vitamin is absorbed, stored and removed from the body. Vitamins are tiny organic compounds with a
huge impact on the health and well-being of the body. The body needs a small amount of fat soluble vitamins in
order to stay in optimal health. Fat soluble vitamins play an important role in keeping the body healthy and
functioning from immune system and muscle and heart function, easy flow and clotting of blood as well as eye
health. They are critical to health and wellness–particularly reproductive health and wellness. Low-fat, no-fat
and vegan diets are woefully lacking in fat soluble vitamins. However a diet based on traditional foods can
naturally provide these vitamins. Science is still learning about many of the functions of vitamins. "Too much
vitamin A, D, or K can lead to increased levels that are unhealthy and can cause serious health consequences.
Diseased conditions leading to decreased fat absorption leads to decreased absorption of vitamins. The fatsoluble
vitamins work most safely and effectively when obtained them from natural foods within the context of a
diet rich in all their synergistic partners. If fat soluble vitamins are stored for lengthy time they generate threat
for toxicity than water soluble vitamins and such situation even aggravated, provided they are consumed in
excess. Vitamin products, above the legal limits are not considered food supplements and must be registered as
prescription or non-prescription (over-the-counter drugs) due to their potential side effects. Vitamin A and E
supplements do not provide health benefits for healthy individuals, instead they may enhance mortality, and it is
held proved that beta-carotene supplements can be harmful to smokers

Fat soluble vitamins (Vitamin A) Medicinal chemistry- By ravisankar - iIntroduction,classification, Differencebetween fat and water soluble vitamins,slurces of vitamin A, chemistry of Vitamin A, Physiological Role of Vitamin-A, uses, Tretinoin and Isotretinoin
Vitamins are required in small quantities in the diet because they cannot be synthesized by the body.
Water soluble vitamins cannot be stored in human tissues. Their excess is excreted with urine.
Significant amounts of fat soluble vitamins can be stored in adipose tissue and the liver.
Synthetic vitamins are identical to natural vitamins.
Once growth and development are completed, vitamins remain essential nutrients for the healthy maintenance of the cells, tissues, and organs.
Vitamins are frequently classified as either fat-soluble or water-soluble organic substances.. minerals that dissolve in fat, such as vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin K, have a tendency to build up in the body. Water-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin C and the B-complex vitamins, such as vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and folate, must dissolve in water in order to be absorbed by the body. the body and cannot be stored. Any water-soluble minerals that the body does not use are mostly excreted in the urine. People require trace amounts of organic substances called vitamins. Every one plays a unique part in preserving health and body function. Some people may require supplements to improve their supply, depending on their lifestyle and overall health..

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics

2. Vitamins are organic compounds required in
the diet in small amount to perform specific
biological functions for normal maintenance
of the organism. [Reproduction in human
being]
Required Small amount since their degradation
is relatively slow.
Naturally occur in food.
Deficiency occurs when the vitamin is missing
from diet.
3. Hopkins coined the term “Accessary Factors”
to the unknown and essential nutrients present
in the natural foods.
In 1912 Hopkins & Funk isolated an active
principle ( an amine) from rice polishings &
later in yeast, which could we Beri-Beri in
pigeons he coined the term Vitamin.
4. (Vita- Life) he believe that all of term are amines . But
later he realized that only few of them are amines. The
term vitamin however is continued without the final
latter ‘e’.
5. VITAMINS
Fat soluble Water Soluble
Vitamin A
Vitamin D Non B-complex B Complex
Vitamin E
Vitamin K Vitamin C(Ascorbic acid)
Energy Releasing Hematopoietic
8. Most of Vitamins are not biosynthesized by the body & hence for
its functional use we have to depend on the diet intake.
Few vitamins which are synthesized & supplement for the use are:
Vitamin D from cholesterol
Vitamin B3 Niacin – from tryptophan
Vitamin K,
Vitamin B7, Are synthesized by
Vitamin B12 normal bacterial flora of gut & intestine,
acting on
Food supplement absorbed
use for body function
9. Vitamins are widely distributed in nature.
Foods of plant and animal origin contains rich amount of
various vitamins.
Usually fat soluble vitamins are associated with fats &
predominantly obtained by fatty diet of plant & animal
origin – fish oils, liver, meat, wheat germ oil etc.
Water soluble vitamins are predominantly presents in fresh
fruits, vegetables, cereals, grains, yeast etc.
10. Thus a mixed type of diet. will provide sufficiently for
all type of vitamins to the body, whose function will
maintain normal health, growth and reproduction.
11. It is a condition, due to excessive accumulation of vitamins
in body tissues like liver, spleen, brain and bones.
The manifestation of hyper vitaminosis are due to its toxic
effects on the functional activity of tissues.
Fat soluble vitamins:
Over consumption of these vitamins may increase the
storage capacity and affects the normal functions of the
tissues.
Excessive intake of water soluble vitamins. Does not lead to
hyper vitaminosis, since they are not stored in the body and
any excess intake then daily excreted through urine.
12. Avitaminosis is a condition produced due to deficiency of
vitamins in the body.
Absence of vitamins affects the body and make it suffer
from the manifestations.
Causes for Avitaminosis (Vitamin deficiency)
Body can suffer form Avitaminosis due to different reasons:
i) Inadequate dietary intake of vitamins.
ii) Inadequate absorption from GIT lumen due to GIT
disorders.
iii) Inadequate utilization of vitamins.
iv) Drug induced deficiency.
13. Provitamins are precursors of active form of vitamins,
they are present in food substances, when ingested in the
body, by the help of enzymatic action they are
immediately converted to vitamin.
As such provitamins have no function similar vitamin
form.
Examples: Corrotenes (yellow pigments) present in
fruits & vegetables are provitamins of vitamin A
14. I – Carrotene [Most Potent]
In Intestinal mucosal cell β-carrotene Dioxygenase
2 milecules of Retinal [Vitamin A]
II – 7-Dehydrocholesterol – Precursor of VitaminD
[Provitamin]
7-Dehydrocholesterol
Skin U.V Light
Cholecalciferol [Vit D3]
15. These are chemical compounds which inhibit or oppose
the vitamin activity and produce vitamin deficiency.
They are also termed as Antagonist and their action as
Antagonism.
Mostly related to Vitamin B complex members and
Vit. K.
Vitamins B-complex members form coenzymes and
mediate enzyme reactions.
Antivitamin are generally structural analogs of these
vitamins hence they participate in enzymatic reactions
and competitively in habit the reactions as they are not
specific in action.
16. I – Dicumarol Warfarin. Vitamin K.
II – Avidin. Biotin.
III – Oxythiamine . Thiamine.
IV – Favin Monosulphate. Riboflavin.
V – Methotrexate. Folate.
17. All vitamins are potent growth factors which maintains normal
health growth and reproduction.
I – Vitamin A :- Role in vision growth & differentiation of epithial
cells.
II – Vitamin D :- Role in mineral (calcium) metabolism bone
mineralization.
III – Vitamin E :- Antioxidant activity – protects tissues.
IV – Vitamin K :-Role in blood clotting mechanism
V – Vitamin C :- Reducing agent.
VI – Vitamin B complex :- They form co-enzymes [organic factor]
which mediate [help] certain enzyme reactions of metabolism.
