As we all know, vitamins are very important when it comes to keeping your heart healthy. You need to eat the right foods of course, although you also need to supplement the food you eat with the necessary vitamins your body needs to stay in shape and keep your heart working healthy for a long time to come. If you don’t consume the right nutrients, you won’t be doing your heart any favors - and may end up having problems later on in life.
The first vitamin that comes to mind for most people is vitamin E, a vitamin that is essential to improving the overall health of your heart. When taken correctly, vitamin E will stop the cholesterol in the body from harming the arteries that surround the heart. Anytime cholesterol oxidizes, it sticks to the sides of the arteries and can lead to blockages which can cause heart attacks or other serious problems with the heart.
To help you keep your heart healthy, most doctors recommend that you take additional supplements that contain vitamin E. They may also suggest that you eat foods that are naturally rich in vitamin E, such as nuts. Nuts have high amounts of vitamin E, and most of them taste great. You can find other foods that contain vitamin E as well, although nuts have the highest amounts.
In the past, research has shown Vitamin E to help those who have already suffered the wrath of a heart attack. This vitamin helps to prevent heart attacks in the future by opening up the arteries and eliminate blockage. Those who have had a heart attack in the past are always encouraged to add more vitamin E to their diet.
What many aren’t aware of, is the fact that you can use vitamin C to boost the effects of vitamin E. Vitamin C is known as an antioxidant, which prevents the damaging effects that cholesterol has on the body. Along with preventing cholesterol from damaging the body, vitamin C also helps vitamin E with it’s functions - such as protecting your arteries and your heart.
By taking both vitamin C and E as a combination, you’ll be well on your way to a healthier heart. Overall, this is the easiest way that you can be sure you aren’t damaging your heart, especially if you have had a heart attack in the past. If you have a history of heart disease or heart problems in your family, these vitamins are essential to your diet. Even if you are just concerned about the health of your heart, these vitamins will give you the peace of mind in knowing that you are eating for a healthy heart.
As far as your dosage goes, it will vary from person to person, although 400 international units of vitamin E and C are the recommended amounts for most people. On it’s own, vitamin C can be tolerated in large doses, without imposing any harmful effects. You can take around 500 mg of it twice a day, and ensure that your heart remains healthy.
To be on the safe side, you should always make sure that you get the proper amount of vitamins in your daily diet. Taking additional vitamins and supplements isn’t a bad idea either, especially if you are trying to boost the health of your heart. Your heart is one of the most important organs in your body, which is why you should always take care of it. If you eat the proper diet and take the necessary vitamins - you’ll be well on your way to keeping your heart healthy.

I heard that Vitamin A toxicity can occur at doses of 15000 IU in a day? Just curious, how many percent of the recommended daily intake is that? An 8 ounce glass of carrot juice contains about 630% of the recommended daily intake, is this over 15000 IU? Is there an equation to convert IU to the percentage? What is IU in general?

Jake Saab asked:
It is essential that a person is aware of what constitutes good food health vitamin intake. The federal drug administration produces a recommended daily allowance for the majority of vitamins which it regards as a good food health vitamin intake. These figures vary according to a person’s age, *** and some other factors so that the good food health vitamin intake for a young woman is going to be different to that of a man in his seventies.
The food health vitamin intake amounts of certain foods are included in the nutritional labelling. This labelling is important for a person to consider and helps ensure that they are receiving the correct food health vitamin intake from the foods that they eat. The nutritional information is often represented as a percentage of the recommended daily allowance of each vitamin and mineral and can help assess the value of the foods in the quest for good food health vitamin intake.
There are also a number of items that a person may want to restrict in their diet as part of their good food health vitamin intake. Again, the nutritional labelling of certain foods can help a person to see how high a product is in these undesirable contents. Salt and fat, for example, may be items that a person wants to consider limiting as part of their good food health vitamin intake even though they are not strictly vitamins. The majority of people actually refer to nutrients when they use the word vitamin and food manufacturers are aware that a person is looking at minerals and other items when they are considering their good food health vitamin intake. Fiber is another element that many people are more aware of as forming an essential part of a balanced diet and is necessary for good food health vitamin intake.
If a person is on a restricted diet for any reason then they need to pay even more attention to their good food health vitamin intake. Obviously, some foods contain different nutrients to others and this is applicable to vitamins as well and it may be more difficult for a person to achieve their good food health vitamin intake if they are unable to eat certain foods. Vitamin supplements can form an essential part of a good food health vitamin intake for people who are unable to obtain their vitamins from their normal diet. It is also worth remembering that the good food health vitamin intake for a person varies throughout their life depending on their general health.

I really want to become a vegetarian but everytime I become one (hence, stop eating meat), I end up with either an iron deificiency or a vitamin B deficiency, and I have to resort to going back to eating meats and taking supplements.
My question to any vegetarian out there is : what on earth do you do to maintain a normal level of iron and vitamin B in your body?
Thank you for your time.

Vitamin A
Introduction
Often touted as a miracle vitamin, vitamin A is the secret to great skin, higher immunity levels and holistic growth. Vitamin A is a powerful antioxidant that also improves eyesight, helps strengthen bones, protects the body from heart related diseases, alleviates acne and psoriasis conditions, reduces wrinkles, alleviates respiratory ailments and helps improve measles and glaucoma conditions.
Functions within the body
Retinol, which is a by-product of vitamin A, is responsible for helping the eyes adapt to dark environments easily. Therefore, regular intake of vitamin A can help prevent a condition known as ‘night blindness.’ Retinol acids help regulate genetic conditions and expressions within the body and an adequate intake of vitamin A helps preserve the physiological characteristics of cells in the body. Vitamin A is also an effective agent against any infections as it helps to strengthen the mucous linings, skin, urinary tract and digestive tract, so forming the primary defences against most infections. Whilst vitamin A may be needed for proper growth and development in the body, too little or too much of this vitamin can cause defects in a foetus. Red blood corpuscles originate from stem cells, which depend on vitamin A to become blood cells. Vitamin A is also responsible for mobilising iron to incorporate it into the form of haemoglobin.
Deficiency conditions
Since vitamin A is required for maintaining eyesight and immunity, a deficiency can cause impaired vision and increased incidence of diseases in the body. Night blindness is one of the foremost conditions caused by a deficiency of this vitamin. When the deficiency is less, it manifests itself as a slight change on conjunctive tissue of the eye. These are Bitot’s spots. In cases where the deficiency has reached more severe proportions, it can cause dryness of the eyes and finally result in ulcers on the cornea, scarring and ultimately blindness in the person.
Children who have lower amounts of vitamin A in the blood tend to get more respiratory diseases as well as diarrhoea. Children who already have a condition of measles or diarrhoea as well as insufficient vitamin A tend to suffer more than children with a healthy level of vitamin A. In such children, the severity of the infection is more.
Deficiency Symptoms in Adults and Infants
Vitamin A is responsible for the healthy growth of bones and tissues in children. Hence, a reduced level of this vitamin can result in retarding growth in a child. Therefore, the child could develop a growth defect and even dwarfism which is where the body parts fail to grow normally and assume a stunted appearance. Often the face will assume a mongoloid appearance and the ****** bones will not develop fully resulting in a distorted ****** appearance.
In adults as well as children, a deficiency of vitamin A can cause conditions like night blindness, inflammation in the eyes, inability to see properly at night, dryness of eyes, inflammation in the cornea etc. In addition to conditions associated with the eyes, a person can experience roughness of the skin, dryness and increased presence of wrinkles. Children with insufficient vitamin A are more prone to respiratory ailments as well as urinary tract infections. This can also manifest itself in adults who do not have sufficient vitamin A in their bodies.
Recommended daily amounts for each age group
The amounts of vitamin A needed depend on the person’s age group and gender. Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding need a higher concentration of vitamin A in their diets. Here is a break down of the recommended dosages of this vitamin:
· Male and female infants aged below 6 months of age need 400 mg per day of vitamin A
· Infants (both male and female) aged between 7 and 12 months need 500 mg per day
· Children from 1 to 3 years of age need 300 mg of vitamin A each day
· Children aged between 4 and 8 years require 400 mg vitamin A per day
· Children aged from 9 to 13 years need 600 mg vitamin A each day
· Teenagers aged from 14 to 18 years require 900 mg of vitamin A per day
· Adults aged more than 19 years require 900 mg of vitamin A each day
· Pregnant women who are aged below 18 years need 750 mg of vitamin A each day
· Pregnant women aged above 19 years need 770 mg of vitamin A per day
Women who breast-feed and are aged below 18 years require 1200 mg in a day of vitamin A Women who breast-feed and are aged above 19 years require 1200 mg in a day of vitamin A
Top 10 Richest food sources
Most vitamin A sources reside in animal-based foods, such as poultry, beef etc. There are also a few plant sources, which contain this essential vitamin. Here is a list of these sources:
Beef liver: When cooked, 3 ounces of beef liver contain 27,185 IU of vitamin A Chicken liver: In cooked form, 3 ounces of chicken liver contain 12,325 IU of this vitamin Skimmed milk: One cup of skimmed and fortified milk contains 500 IU of vitamin A Cheddar cheese: One ounce of cheddar cheese contains 284 IU of vitamin A Egg substitutes: A quarter cup of egg substitutes contain 226 IU of vitamin A Carrots: Half a cup of carrots contains as much as 22,567 IU of vitamin A Spinach: A half cup of spinach boiled or frosen contains 11,458 IU of vitamin A Apricots: A half cup quantity of apricots with their skin intact contain around 2063 IU of vitamin A Peas: Half cup of boiled or frosen peas contains 1050 IU of vitamin A Oatmeal: Cooked with water, a cup of oats contains 1252 IU of vitamin A
When increased amounts may be needed
Consumption of too much alcohol can easily deplete the liver of its vitamin A levels. This can contribute to damaged liver functions. Moreover, the continued consumption of alcohol can contribute to more toxicity of the previously formed retinol from vitamin A. Hence, even with additional vitamin A supplements the chances of improving the levels of this vitamin reduce in an alcoholic. Even contraceptives that have progestin and estrogens can reduce the levels of vitamin A in the body. These pills can result in increasing RBP production or retinol binding proteins. However, it is not yet clear whether such a condition requires added intake of vitamin A by the body.
Any known interactions with other drugs (prescribed)
If a person is using any acitretin, retinoids or associated medications, isotretinoin, bexarotene or even etretinate then the person should not consume vitamin A supplements. These can increase toxic levels of vitamin A in the body.

I bought some time-release vitamins, but the tablets are huge and hard to swallow, especially in the morning. I’ve been breaking them in half, but wonder if this reduces the time-release schedule because the inside of the tablet is now exposed. That is, instead of dissolving from the outside shell inwards, I’ve exposed the inside of the vitamin which could dissolve faster. Anyone know?

That is, instead of dissolving from the outside shell inwards, I’ve exposed the inside of the vitamin which could dissolve faster. Anyone know?
