Vitamins are nutrients that are required in very small amounts for the body metabolism. They cannot be produced in required amounts and need to be consumed as a part of our food. When one's diet does not contain sufficient amount of certain vitamins, a person can suffer from deficiency diseases.

Amla - Vitamin C
Carrot - vitamin A
Milk - Calcium
Salt - Iodine
