Introduction
What are vitamins?
Actually, vitamin is short for vital amines
. When, in the beginning of the 20th century, vitamins were discovered it was found that a deficiency of those vital amines lead to diseases or abnormal metabolic signs. Restoring the missing compound would cure or prevent the disease.
The names of the vitamins are somewhat curious but is a reflection of the order of discovery.
