With a balanced diet in which fresh products abound, you can get all the vitamins that the body does not produce, but it does need.

There are two groups of vitamins: fat-soluble and water-soluble, among which all the others are classified. As the former dissolve in fat, they tend to accumulate in the body; the latter, meanwhile, have the peculiarity of being easily eliminated in the urine and, in general, do not accumulate.

Hence the consumption of vitamins must take these principles into account so as not to accumulate them and not deprive the body of them. It should be taken into account that the vitamin check (ตรวจวิตามิน, which is the term in Thai) must be diagnosed by a doctor, who will determine whether to formulate supplements or not.

It is worth noting that vitamins must be given their fair value, which consists, primarily, in contributing to chemical reactions for the optimal functioning of the organism. That is to say: by themselves, they do not increase the growth of the body or improve the performance of the organs.
