Common Questions
Quick answers to questions we hear often about vitamins, nutrition, and nutritional wellness.
What is the difference between vitamins and minerals?
Vitamins are organic compounds made by plants or animals. Minerals are inorganic substances like iron and calcium that come from soil and water. Both are essential nutrients your body cannot produce in sufficient quantities on its own.
Can I get all my vitamins from food alone?
A balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins provides most vitamins your body needs. Certain groups—such as people with dietary restrictions—may benefit from additional support through fortified foods or other options. Consult dietary guidance for your individual situation.
How much of each vitamin do I need daily?
Daily requirements vary by age, sex, and life stage. The UK government provides Recommended Nutrient Intakes (RNI) for each vitamin. Visit our vitamin guide to see specific recommendations for each nutrient and understand how much your body actually needs.
Are certain seasons better for getting specific vitamins?
Yes. Summer offers abundant fresh produce rich in vitamins C and K. Winter vegetables like leafy greens and squash provide good nutrition. Vitamin D production from sunlight is higher in summer months. Eating seasonally naturally provides vitamin variety throughout the year.
