GETTING THE FACTS RIGHT ABOUT VITAMINS
A lot of misinformation has been published about
vitamins — and it’s vital to your health to get the facts
right.
Here, two nutrition experts separate the facts from the
myths.
MYTH: Vitamins give you energy.
FACT: Not by themselves, because they contain no
calories. But vitamins do help convert the calories in
food into energy.
MYTH: Vitamin E improves your sex life.
FACT: There isn’t any evidence to support this.
MYTH: New vitamins, such as laetrile and choline,
continue to be discovered.
FACT: There are only 13 vitamins recognized by the
US Food and Drug Administration — vitamins A, C, D,
E, K, B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B6
(pyridoxine), B12 (cobalamin), biotin, folic acid and
pantothenic acid.
Substances such as laetrile and choline aren’t
recognized as vitamins because they don’t meet the two
criteria for vitamins — no dietary requirement for them
has been shown and no deficiency disease occurs if
they’re absent from the diet.
MYTH: The more vitamin D you take, the stronger
your bones will be.
FACT: No so. Vitamin D is necessary for strong bones,
but bone deformities and multiple fractures are common
among people who absorb too much of the vitamin.
MYTH: Health food stores sell “perfect” foods that
contain every vitamin.
FACT: No such “perfect” food exists.
MYTH: Vitamin C can help lower your blood
cholesterol level.
FACT: No. There’s no clinical evidence of this.
MYTH: If you get too much of a vitamin, your body
will excrete the excess.
FACT: Many vitamins are water-soluble and they’re
excreted from the body. But vitamins A, D, E and K are
fat-soluble and they are stored in the body.

Text II
London was more prepared for the outbreak of
the second world war than the central
government let on. After all, if you were seeking
peace through diplomacy, it was unwise to tell
the citizenry how far you feared the worst. For
London, the worst was aerial bombing on a scale
not previously known. If not quite the greatest
city in the world in 1939, London was certainly
among the most expansive. Over 8 million people
— fifth of the British population — lived there,
concentrated in an area of some 750 square
miles. It was an inviting target for anything that
the Germans could drop on it, and the
government knew it.
