Vital substances
Vital substances (macro- and micronutrients) include compounds such as vitamins, trace elements, minerals, amino and fatty acids, which play an essential role for our immune system and numerous metabolic processes in our body.
If these are present in sufficient concentrations, they are said to have a disease-preventing effect. With a few exceptions, our body cannot produce vital substances itself, which is why we have to consume them in the appropriate quantities through our food. With vital substances, a distinction is made between compounds that the body can store and those that must be supplied daily. For example, magnesium and calcium can be stored very well, whereas water-soluble vitamins have to be supplied regularly, as they are excreted again relatively quickly through the urine.
If the diet is too one-sided, deficiencies and consequently health problems can develop. The effects of a vital substance deficiency range from reduced performance, psychological changes / burnout, accelerated ageing processes to chronic ailments, diseases of civilisation and cancer.
An increased need for vital substances can be caused by the consumption of stimulants, lack of sleep, stress, competitive sports or can also occur during pregnancy and breastfeeding. This increased need can usually no longer be covered by the usual food, but only by taking additional food supplements. Nowadays, vital substance preparations are used specifically against a variety of diseases. The field of so-called orthomolecular medicine is investigating the therapeutic effects of these nutrients more and more closely.
