Vitamins and mineralsFunction in your bodyFood sources include... Vitamin A help you to see in dim light keep your skin and hair healthy strengthen your immune system oily fish (such as mackerel) liver carrots fortified margarine cheese dark green leafy vegetables (such as spinach) Vitamin D grow and keep bones and teeth healthy help your body to absorb calcium oily fish eggs fortified breakfast cereals fortified margarine Vitamin E protect your body from damage caused by free radicals (these are produced by your body's normal chemical reactions and are thought to damage body cells, which may lead to the development of diseases such as cancer) vegetable oils eggs wholegrain foods green vegetables nuts Vitamin K blood clotting build strong bones dark green leafy vegetables meat (particularly liver) potatoes cereals Vitamin B1 (thiamin) break down and release energy from food maintain muscle tissue keep your nerves working properly bread potatoes milk meat wholegrain and fortified breakfast cereals Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) maintain good vision, break down and release energy from food produce steroids and red blood cells help your body to absorb folic acid build tissue milk meat (particularly liver) eggs 3

Copper produce red blood cells keep nerves and the immune system healthy nuts shellfish offal Manganese make and activate enzymes bread wheatgerm nuts avocados peas tea Molybdenum help enzymes function vegetables nuts cereals Selenium help enzymes function protect cells from damage brazil nuts seeds fish eggs Chromium enhance the action of insulin (insulin helps cells to absorb glucose, where it's converted to energy) wholegrain foods lentils spices Iodine produce thyroid hormone oily fish seaweed Phosphorus build bones break down and release energy from food dairy products eggs meat fish soya beans soya products lentils 4

Vitamin B3 (niacin) break down and release energy from food meat flour eggs milk fortified breakfast cereals Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) keep your nerves working properly break down and release energy from food meat potatoes tomatoes broccoli cereals and grains Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) break down and release protein from food produce haemoglobin chicken fish eggs brown rice oats grains some types of nut Vitamin B12 produce red blood cells keep your nervous system healthy process folic acid meat liver milk fish eggs Folic acid (folate) produce red blood cells keep your nervous system healthy green leafy vegetables some types of fruits Biotin break down and release energy from food liver kidneys wholegrain foods nuts 5

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) help your body to absorb iron keep cells and tissues healthy fresh fruit (particularly citrus fruits) sweet potatoes green vegetables Sodium chloride (salt) regulate fluids digest food processed foods table salt Potassium regulate your body fluids potatoes vegetables green vegetables chicken dairy products bananas Calcium build strong bones and teeth keep your muscles and nerves functioning blood clotting milk cheese fortified bread and flour green leafy vegetables nuts Magnesium break down and release energy from food activate enzymes in your body – enzymes help complex reactions to occur control the amount of calcium in your blood and bones green leafy vegetables nuts dairy products Iron produce red blood cells red meat liver wholegrain flour green leafy vegetables Zinc produce new cells and enzymes repair tissue break down and release energy from food meat (particularly liver) seafood (particularly oysters) milk bread cereals 6
