Vitamins
Definition : Vitamins are organic nutrients that are required in small quantities for a variety of biochemical functions and which, generally, cannot be synthesized by the body and must therefore be supplied by the diet.

History
Thiamine was discovered in 1912 & was thought to be a vital amine compound & thus the term vitamin was invented
Vita=vital for life Min=amine

Water-soluble vitamins
Common features: 1.Water soluble 2.Easy to be discharged through urine. Rarely accumulated to the toxic concentrations. 3.Their storage is limit. Must be provided regularly.Vitamin B12 is the only water-soluble vitamin
that can be stored in the liver for many years.

1. Vitamin B1 (Thiamine )• In 1897 Christiaan Eijkman discovered
that fowl fed on a diet of cooked, polished rice developed paralysis, which could be reversed by discontinuing rice polishing.
• He attributed that to a nerve poison in the endosperm of rice, from which the outer layers of the grain gave protection to the body.
• Eijkman was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1929, because his observations led to the discovery of vitamins.

2. Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) Vitamin B2, also commonly called riboflavin, gets it
s name from its color. The root of this word is the Latin word "flavus" meaning "yellow."

Folic Acid - DeficiencyFolic Acid - Deficiency
Megaloblastic anemia (macrocytic anemia) An anemia (of macrocytic classification) that resu
lts from inhibition of DNA synthesis in red blood cell production.
This is often due to deficiency of vitamin B12 and/or folic acid.
Pregnant or lactating women may require folic acid supplementation. Folic acid deficiency in pregnant women may cau
se neural defects in the fetus.

Food Sources of Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is a unique vitamin, synthesized by only microorganisms and not by animals and plants.
It is naturally found in meat (especially liver and shellfish), milk and eggs. Animals, in turn, must obtain it directly or indirectly from bacteria.
![Page 47: Lecture 6 Vitamins and Coenzymes](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081419/56815956550346895dc69279/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Causes of Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Vitamin B12 deficiency is rarely due to an absense of the vitamin in the diet.
It is much more common in patients who fail to absorb the vitamin from the intestine, resulting in pernicious anemia.Lack of intrinsic factor
(IF)
