Vitamins and Minerals

Subject: Chemistry

Book: General Chemistry

Vitamins and minerals are essential micronutrients required for proper physiological function. Vitamins (e.g., vitamin C, vitamin D) often function as coenzymes, while minerals (e.g., iron, calcium) contribute to structural components or enzyme cofactors. Deficiencies can lead to health issues (e.g., scurvy from lack of vitamin C). Knowledge of their roles is critical in nutrition and medical fields for disease prevention.
