Vitamins and Nutrition

Chlorella is a single-celled freshwater alga. Chlorella contains vitamin C and carotenoids, both of which are antioxidants . It also  contains high concentrations of iron and B-complex vitamins

Vitamin D is called “kidney hormone”.

The chemical name of the vitamin B12 is cobalamin.

Potassium erythorbate (C₆H₇KO₆) is a food additive. Chemically, it is the potassium salt of erythorbic acid. As an antioxidant structurally related to vitamin C, it helps to improve flavour stability and prevents the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamines.

Cyanocobalamin is the chemical name for Vitamin B12, an essential nutrient for nerve function and DNA synthesis. Vitamin E is tocopherol, Vitamin B1 is thiamine, and Vitamin B5 is pantothenic acid - but Cyanocobalamin specifically refers to B12, which contains the mineral cobalt.

Vitamin D is essential for proper bone and teeth formation because it helps the body absorb calcium and phosphorus from food. Without adequate Vitamin D, bones can become soft and weak (rickets in children, osteomalacia in adults).

Amla is a very rich source of Vitamin C.

Vitamin C is water-soluble and readily leaches out of vegetables when they are washed or cooked in water. Peeling vegetables exposes more surface area, and washing them afterward removes significant amounts of this water-soluble vitamin. Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) are not removed by washing.

Niacin is synthesised from tryptophan.

It was originally called L-hexuronic acid.

Ergocalciferol is a secosteroid formed by a photochemical bond breaking.

 Ergosterol is a provitamin form of vitamin D₂ which on exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light causes a chemical reaction that produces vitamin D₂.

Vitamin C is chemically known as ascorbic acid. It is an essential water-soluble vitamin that acts as an antioxidant and is crucial for collagen synthesis, wound healing, and immune function. The other options are different organic acids: oxalic acid, glutamic acid (misspelled as Glutermic), citric acid, and formic acid are not vitamins.

Ergocalciferol is the chemical name for Vitamin D2, one of the main forms of Vitamin D (along with D3 or cholecalciferol). It is produced by fungi and plants when exposed to UV radiation and is used in Vitamin D supplements.
