description Vitamins — organic compounds with low molecular weight, possessing an exceptional characteristic — the ability to display high biological activity in small doses. The main source of vitamins and micro-elements for humans is food. The content of vitamins in the diet varies and depends on a number of reasons. However, food cannot fully meet the body’s need for vitamins and micro-elements, resulting in widespread subclinical deficiency of these nutrients. Children are vulnerable to this state especially during the period of intensive growth, increased mental and physical stress (for example at the beginning of kinder garden or school attendance) and during the period of illness. It is therefore necessary to pay special attention to diet and ensure these categories of children with vitamins.
