Farmers constantly replenish the soil with nitrogen and phosphates, but do nothing to replace the minerals that are used up. Plants need these minerals to produce the vitamins they naturally contain. As a result, vegetables no longer contain the vitamin content they once did. Even organically grown vegetables, while preferable over the mass produced variety, do not contain what we need. Vitamins are also known clinically as coenzymes.
Enzymes are proteins found in our cells that regulate the chemical reactions in our bodies.
Without enzymes, we would be unable to perform the simplest functions. Vitamins, or coenzymes, are structural parts of vitamins. Our cells would be unable to build enzymes without vitamins. Let's take a look at each group. Water-soluble vitamins are exactly what they say, that is, they dissolve in water.
