A vitamin A deficiency can increase risk of infectious diseases. B vitamins help with brain functioning and mood disorders. Infantile vitamin C deficiency, "Barlow's disease," can be mistaken as child abuse. 70% of US children have a vitamin D deficiency which can be solved by playing in the sun. Vitamin E works as a beneficial radio-protectant against cobalt-60 radiation. Vitamin K aids in blood clotting and without it, at birth, an infant can hemorrhage. This book offers a glimpse about what vitamins are; what possible diseases they might aid in fighting; what health benefits they might offer; what risks they might have and what foods supply those vitamins."
