  • Summary

  • In today’s episode of Daily Value, we continue our exploration of vitamins by diving into the concept of hypovitaminosis and the importance of adequate vitamin intake for overall health. The second half of the 20th century brought critical insights into how vitamin insufficiencies, or hypovitaminosis, can impact human health, even in populations where outright deficiencies are uncommon. We’ll explore the distinction between insufficiency and deficiency, how vitamin status is assessed, and the risks associated with marginal deficiencies that may affect up to 31% of the U.S. population.

    Episode Talking Points:

    *The difference between vitamin insufficiency, deficiency, and clinical manifestations.

    *How socioeconomic factors and dietary choices can lead to hypovitaminosis, even in developed countries.

    *The role of biomarkers in diagnosing vitamin deficiencies and the limitations of current testing methods.
