✨ AIOrganic micronutrients (A, C, D, E, K, and the B group) that keep countless body processes running.
Vitamins are compounds your body needs in small amounts to release energy from food, protect cells, build bone, clot blood, and more. They fall into two groups: water-soluble (vitamin C and the B vitamins), which aren't stored much and are needed regularly, and fat-soluble (A, D, E, K), which are stored in body fat.
