Occasionally, our body will have some minor problems, such as chapped lips, decreased sense of taste, irritability, etc. It's not serious enough to go to the doctor, but it's uncomfortable. Why do these little problems happen? In fact, it is because of the lack of some nutrients in the body.
1. Chapped lips and angular cheilitis
Many people experience chapped lips, flushing, blistering, etc., which are caused by dry weather, bacterial infections of the oral mucosa, or lack of B vitamins.
If it is a lip infection, you need to go to the hospital for further help, and if you are deficient in B vitamins, you can supplement it through your daily diet.
Milk, liver, fish, legumes, eggs, meat, nuts, and fresh green vegetables are all richer in B vitamins.
Second, the food is tasteless and the sense of taste is weakened
Loss of appetite and lack of food may be due to poor spirits, physical aging, etc. But one of the main reasons is zinc deficiency. Zinc deficiency can reduce immunity and poor wound healing.
Animal foods, such as shellfish such as oysters, red meat, organ meats, and eggs, are all excellent sources of zinc and are recommended to be supplemented daily.
3. Lack of concentration, irritability and irritability
In the early stage of iron deficiency, it is easy to have discomfort such as inattention and memory loss, and in severe cases, it will develop into iron deficiency anemia and symptoms such as palpitation.
In addition, women have a worse temper and difficulty concentrating during menstruation, and in addition to being related to endocrine, the loss of iron is also a possible cause.
Red meat, animal liver, and animal blood are all rich in iron, so remember to supplement with vitamin C to help with iron absorption.
Fourth, body aches
Joint pain, muscle pain, back pain, knee pain, especially in the elderly, and osteoporosis, not only lack of calcium, but also vitamin D deficiency. Proper sun exposure is recommended to promote vitamin D synthesis in the skin.
