What about Vitamins? Vitamins can be put into two categories: Fat soluble Water soluble

RECAP • What type of nutrient are vitamins? • Name the 2 categories.

What are fat soluble vitamins? Fat soluble vitamins need fat to be absorbed by the body. The fat soluble vitamins are: • Vitamin A • Vitamin D • Vitamin E • Vitamin K Fat soluble vitamins are stored in the body for a longer time than water soluble vitamins.

Get to know your Vitamins: How can you remember fat soluble vitamins? Make up an ACRONYM to help you remember fat soluble vitamins. An example is: Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain The fat soluble vitamins are: • Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Vitamin K

Why do we need Vitamin A? It’s function is: • To keep eyes healthy so that we can see. • To keep the immune system healthy. • To keep skin lining healthy. • Vitamin A is found in: • Green /yellow/orange/red vegetables, dairy foods

RECAP • What does fat soluble mean? • Fat soluble vitamins need fat to be absorbed by the body. • What are the functions of Vitamin A? • To keep the eyes, immune system and skin lining healthy. • What foods are a source of Vitamin A? • Green /yellow vegetables, dairy foods

Why do we need Vitamin D? It’s function is: • To keep teeth and bones healthy. • To keep muscles healthy. • To help the body to absorb calcium. • Vitamin D is found in: • Margarine and oily fish. It is also made by absorbing sunlight through our skin.

RECAP • What are the functions of Vitamin D? • To keep teeth, bones and muscles healthy. • To help the body to absorb calcium. • What foods are a source of Vitamin D? • Margarine and oily fish. • What is another source of Vitamin D? • It is also made by absorbing sunlight through our skin.

Why do we need Vitamin E? It’s function is: • To keep eyes healthy so that we can see. • To keep the immune system healthy. • To keep skin healthy. • Vitamin E is found in: • Plant oils, nuts and seeds, wheat germ.

RECAP • What are the functions of Vitamin E? • To keep the eyes, immune system and skin lining healthy. • What foods are a source of Vitamin E? • Plant oils, nuts and seeds, wheat germ.

Why do we need Vitamin K? It’s function is: • To help our blood to clot. • Vitamin K is found in: • Green leafy vegetables, vegetable oils, cereal grains.

RECAP • What are the functions of Vitamin K? • To help our blood to clot. • What foods are a source of Vitamin K? • Green leafy vegetables, vegetable oils, cereal grains

Task 2: Create a mind-map about fat soluble vitamins. Write the function of each vitamin. Write the source of each vitamin. Write the names of fat soluble vitamins.
