Apart from essential macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates and fats), we all need micronutrients, which are vitamins and minerals.

Vitamins help us stay healthy. They boost our immune system, help our metabolism and prevent several types of deadly diseases. There are 13 essential vitamins, and each of them has its function. If you eat enough fruit, vegetables and lean meat, you already get the necessary amount of vitamins with food. Nevertheless, if you don't get enough vitamins with food and/or have a digestive disorder, you may consult with a specialist and take up supplements.

Minerals also help us support our body. They are responsible for healthy bones and teeth and help us maintain hydration. Minerals also make our skin, nails and hair remain healthy and good-looking. Some of the most common minerals are iron, calcium and zinc. Iron supports blood cells, calcium strengthens our bones, and zinc is responsible for wound healing and immunity.

There is another essential element along with micro- and macroelements. It's water. Hydration is a key process in our bodies. It helps nutrients reach their destination in the organism and helps remove the substances we don't need. Dehydration often leads to physical and mental discomfort. The best way to stay hydrated is to drink still, unsweetened, clear water. Although all liquids contain water, staying hydrated by drinking sweet lemonades or juices is not a good idea. You'd better prefer fresh fruit, which contains water too, to a carton of orange juice.
