Who among us in the beginning of spring does not complain about avitaminosis, low immunity and general weakness? With a familiar hand, we grab for a jar of vitamins, hoping to solve all our problems, and we are very surprised when we do not get the desired result. This approach to taking vitamins causes serious fears among medical professionals. Recently, there has been a sharp increase in the consumption of multivitamin complexes among urban residents. Everyone is afraid of beriberi, and yet few people know what he is and what are his symptoms, according to the Internet edition for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. net Indeed, in winter, the intake of fresh fruits and vegetables is objectively reduced, and those that still fall on our table do not contain enough useful substances. But many do not realize that even in the summer to get the necessary dose of vitamins from fruits alone is not so easy. To make up for the daily requirement for vitamins and trace elements, it is necessary to eat at least 1.5-2 kg of fruits, berries and vegetables. How many of us can boast of this? It turns out that in the warm season too we are "undernourished" with the same fruits, but we do not feel better. According to doctors, this is due to the fact that in summer we are more often in the open air, move more and get the right amount of ultraviolet. Certainly, the lack of vitamins affects our state of health by the end of winter, but this is by no means the only factor that influences it, and this must be remembered.
TRYING WITH CONCEPTS Strictly speaking, what we often call an avitaminosis, in fact, it is not. Because this avitaminosis is a serious pathological condition associated with an acute shortage of vitamins in the body. Among its main causes - insufficient supply of nutrients with food, impaired absorption or disposal in tissues. A century and a half ago it was avitaminosis that caused scurvy in sailors and often led to death. Today in a civilized world such an acute shortage of vitamins can be met very rarely. Most often, doctors face hypovitaminosis - a condition on the verge of illness (not pathological) associated with inadequate intake of vitamins and trace elements with food. In addition, there are endogenous (internal) causes of hypovitaminosis, among which:.
• impaired functions of individual organs (liver, kidney, intestine) or hormonal changes in the body;.
• a violation of the internal metabolism between vitamins and the products of the breakdown of proteins, fats, carbohydrates. For example, inadequate intake of protein from food can lead to the fact that individual trace elements will not be absorbed;.
• Confrontation (conflict) between the accepted vitamins and those produced by the body itself. Excessive entry of some elements causes the rejection or increased allocation of other elements.. The presence of endogenous hypovitaminosis requires serious treatment under the supervision of a doctor. The usual hypovitaminosis can and should be corrected in a timely manner, but even here a consultation of a therapist is needed;.
• pale, flaccid skin, prone to dryness and irritation;.
• lifeless dry hair with a tendency to cross and fall out;.
• cracked corners of the lips, not amenable to any creams and hygienic lipsticks;.
Bleeding when cleaning teeth gums;.
• Pure colds with a difficult and long recovery;.
• a constant feeling of fatigue, apathy, irritation;.
• exacerbation of chronic diseases (including frequent recurrences of herpes and fungal infections).
