<p><b>New page</b></p><div>A vitamin is an [[organic compound]] required by an [[organism]] as a vital [[nutrient]] in limited amounts. An organic chemical compound (or related set of compounds) is called a vitamin when it cannot be [[biosynthesis|synthesized]] in sufficient quantities by an organism and must be obtained from the diet. The term is conditional both on the circumstances and on the particular organism. For example, [[ascorbic acid]] (vitamin C) is a vitamin for anthropoid primates, [[human]]s, [[guinea pig]]s and [[bat]]s, but not for other mammals. Vitamin D is not an essential nutrient for people who get sufficient exposure to [[Ultraviolet light therapy|ultraviolet light]], either from the sun or an artificial source, as they synthesize vitamin D in skin. Humans require thirteen vitamins in their diet, most of which are actually groups of related molecules, "vitamers", (e.g. vitamin E includes tocopherols and tocotrienols, vitamin K includes vitamin K<sub>1</sub> and K<sub>2</sub>). The list: vitamins A, C, D, E, K, Thiamine (B<sub>1</sub>), Riboflavin (B<sub>2</sub>), Niacin (B<sub>3</sub>), Pantothenic Acid (B<sub>5</sub>), Vitamin B<sub>6</sub>, Biotin (B<sub>7</sub>), Folate (B<sub>9</sub>) and Vitamin B<sub>12</sub>. Vitamin intake below recommended amounts can result in signs and symptoms associated with vitamin deficiency. There is little evidence of benefit when vitamins are consumed as a dietary supplement by those who are healthy and have a nutritionally adequate diet.</div>FuzzyBot
