That's right, not getting enough of the daily requirements of vitamins could lead to the development of certain disorders like cracks at the corners of the mouth, a red, scaly rash on your face (and sometimes elsewhere) and hair loss, tingling, prickling, and numbness in hands, feet, or elsewhere, crazy muscle cramps in the form of stabbing pains in toes, calves, arches of feet, and backs, noting that these symptoms can be combined with anxiety, depression, anaemia, fatigue, and hormone imbalances.
These vitamin deficiencies may range from Iron, zinc, B vitamins like folate (B9), B6, and B12 and B vitamins like niacin (B3), riboflavin (B2). It's standard if you're a vegetarian to not get enough iron, zinc, and B12, Biotin (B7), known as the hair vitamin. While your body stores fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K), it doesn't store most B vitamins, which are water-soluble. Body builders take note: Eating raw eggs makes you vulnerable, because a protein in raw eggs called avidin inhibits the body's ability to absorb biotin. Also body builders may loose essential fatty acids and vitamins A and D, magnesium, calcium, and potassium. "If it's happening frequently, it's a tip-off that you're lacking in these," . And if you're training hard, you can lose more minerals (and water-soluble B vitamins) through heavy sweating.

Getting a balanced dose of vitamin C especially, can help build a strong immune system which could combat the Ebola Virus Disease and make the body system impenetrable by any disease.

WAYS TO PREVENT IT FROM SPREADING ARE JUST BASIC HYGIENE ROUTINE THAT SHOULD BE EASY TO ADHERE TO. |
