VITAMINS
Vitamins support normal growth and development, and help cells and organs do their jobs. Some vitamins (like A, D, E and K) are stored by the body, but others (like Vitamin C and the B Vitamins) are not and need to be replenished every day in a growing child.
MINERALS
Minerals are substances the body uses to build bones, make hormones and regulate the heartbeat. You need larger amounts of some minerals, like calcium, and small amounts of trace minerals like iron, copper, iodine and zinc.
WHAT DO
ANTIOXIDANTS DO?
Every day you’re exposed to cell-damaging molecules (called “free radicals”) generated by pollution, smoke, sunlight and even your own body when you work out hard or convert food to energy. Antioxidants, such as Vitamins C, E and A, help neutralize these damaging effects and may help reduce the risk for certain cancers and heart disease. Diets high in vegetables and fruits are good sources of antioxidants.
