Detailed explanation-1: -Vitamins and minerals are micronutrients required by the body to carry out a range of normal functions. However, these micronutrients are not produced in our bodies and must be derived from the food we eat.
Detailed explanation-2: -The human body does not produce Vitamins. They have been produced as commodity chemicals and made widely available as inexpensive semisynthetic and synthetic-source multivitamin dietary and food supplements and additives.
Detailed explanation-3: -Essential nutrients are nutrients that the human body is unable to synthesize. They must be obtained from food or water. Essential nutrients include carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are all part of a group of essential nutrients called macronutrients.
