The Encyclopedia of Vitamins and Minerals: Their Role in the Human Body, Why They're Needed, and Where to Get Them from, Naturally (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798299331646)

Why Vitamins and Minerals Are the Foundation of Human Health
Since the dawn of history, people have sensed that food is more than just fuel. Ancient healers prescribed herbs, fermented foods, and mineral-rich broths long before the word "vitamin" was coined. Today, science confirms what intuition always suggested: our health depends on micronutrients-the vitamins and minerals that quietly orchestrate every function of the human body.
This encyclopedia is a journey into that world. It explains the role of each vitamin and mineral, why they are necessary for human life, and how to obtain them from natural food sources. The aim is not only scientific understanding but also practical wisdom: to help anyone design a nutrient-rich lifestyle without depending exclusively on supplements.
Human life is sustained by countless biochemical processes that take place every second inside our bodies. At the core of these processes are vitamins and minerals-the essential "micronutrients" that, although required in small amounts, make the difference between vitality and illness. They act as catalysts, enabling enzymes and hormones to function; they build and strengthen bones, blood, and tissue; they regulate energy metabolism; and they support the brain and immune system. Without them, the human body cannot grow, repair itself, or thrive.
