Here’s the continuation of the previous post on Vitamins, which you can read HERE. I hope you guys find this useful.



Vitamin C: Helps improve immunity and prevents acne. Necessary for healthy bones, teeth and gums. Also helps maintain a healthy skin.  Source: All citrus fruits, capsicums, strawberries, broccoli, leafy greens, tomatoes, lemon, cabbage, apples, bananas, pineapples, peaches, mangoes

Vitamin D: also known as the Sunshine Vitamin is essential for calcium absorption.  Since we all use sunscreen or sit in front of the computer all day long it is very essential to include fish, egg yolk, butter in our daily food because sunlight is the only major source of it and I doubt if we really get our daily source from that.

Vitamin E is an anti oxidant which protects against sunburns and UV rays. Prevents premature ageing. Used on skin for cold sores, eczema.  Source: nuts, oil, sunflower seeds, spinach, wheat, oils, avocado, apple, carrot, celery, boiled tomatoes, grapes and cabbage
