Vitamin Deficiency

Vitamins are organic compounds which cannot be synthesised in sufficient amounts by the human body and thus must be obtained from the diet. Some vitamins are stored for a longer period, up to one year, and some are easily depleted.

The effect of vitamin deficiency can range from night blindness, anemia to permanent neural disorders, depending on the particular deficient vitamin. Situations can get worse if one is suffering from multiple vitamin deficiencies. Hence, it is essential to know when and how to check for vitamin deficiency.
