Vitamins help your body turn food into energy, support your immune system, protect your cells and keep your bones, skin and eyes healthy. The best way to get them is from a varied, colorful diet.
Foods worth adding
- Citrus, berries and kiwi for vitamin C.
- Carrots, sweet potatoes and leafy greens for vitamin A.
- Eggs, oily fish and fortified foods for vitamin D.
- Whole grains, beans and nuts for B vitamins.
- Seeds, nuts and avocado for vitamin E.
Think color first. The more colors on your plate, the wider the range of nutrients.
Simple ways to eat more
