Vitamins and nutrients are two different things. A vitamin is a nutrient that your body can’t produce, so you must get them from diet, which is also called “essential.” Vitamin C and the B vitamins are some of the most versatile and important nutrients that your body can’t produce, performing numerous vital functions that you need to survive and thrive.

Learn why these vitamins and nutrients are so important and discover ways to maximize your intake.
