Vitamins & Minerals

Vitamins and minerals both play essential roles in everyday health, but they're not the same thing — and knowing the difference can help you choose the right supplement.

Vitamins are organic compounds, like Vitamin C, Vitamin D and the B vitamins, that the body generally can't produce in sufficient amounts on its own. Minerals are inorganic elements, like calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc, that come from soil and water and are essential in smaller amounts.
