Vitamins are organic substances required for life, essential to the normal functioning of our bodies and necessary for growth, vitality and well-being. All organic foods contain minute amounts of vitamins and minerals, but many of our food items grown on depleted soils may lack adequate vitamins and minerals.
Vitamins work synergistically. This means vitamins work together with other vitamins to maximize their effectiveness, so it is important to have a balance. Experts have given us the Recommended Daily Allowances, or the RDA, but these may vary for indivi9duals and circumstances.
