Iron - the secret to your health and energy
Imagine that your body is a factory working at full capacity (to provide energy, growth, cell repair) and iron is the fuel that keeps it running. If iron reserves are depleted, you may experience weakness, heart palpitations or paler skin. Symptoms of iron deficiency include brittle nails, dry hair, shortness of breath, sleep problems, reduced concentration, cold extremities, increased frequency of infections, and anaemia (a lack of red blood cells caused by too little iron in the body), which manifests itself as extreme fatigue. With anaemia, the body is not supplied with enough oxygen and quickly becomes exhausted. Bruising can also be a sign of iron deficiency, as this mineral is important in the formation of haemoglobin, which supports the proper functioning of blood platelets.

B3 - example that food is medicine
Niacin was long considered a mere part of the diet until it was discovered that its deficiency causes skin, digestive, and mental problems known as pellagra. Doctor Goldberger proved that the cause of this disease is not an infection but a one-sided diet without vitamin B3. He conducted an experiment on himself and his colleagues, who consumed exclusively poor diets and began to show symptoms of pellagra. However, when they added nutrients rich in niacin to their diet, the symptoms disappeared. In 1937, niacin was isolated from the liver, confirming its importance and nutritional value.
Let Yourself Shine with B2
The “yellow spark” that powers our body is vitamin B2 - riboflavin, (from Latin flavus “yellow”) was first isolated from milk and initially named lactoflavin. Its uniqueness was noticed by scientists due to its natural fluorescence under UV light, which helped them better understand its distribution in nature. But it wasn't just its mysterious light that attracted scientists' attention. It holds the power to transform food into life force. Riboflavin, aka vitamin B2, is not just a pretty fluorescent molecule, but it is important in cellular metabolism.
