Vitamin A |
Vitamin A prevents eye problems, promotes
a healthy immune system, is essential for the growth and development of
cells, and keeps skin healthy. |
Good sources of vitamin A are milk, eggs,
liver, fortified cereals, darkly colored orange or green vegetables
(such as carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and kale), and orange fruits
such as cantaloupe, apricots, peaches, papayas, and mangos. |
Teen guys need 900 micrograms of vitamin A
each day.
Teen girls need 700 micrograms each day. It is possible to get too much
vitamin A, so be careful with supplements. Don't take vitamin A
supplements If you're taking isotretinoin (such as Accutane) for acne or
other skin problems.
Oral acne medicines are vitamin A supplements, and a continued excess of
vitamin A can build up in the body, causing headaches, skin changes, or
even liver damage. |
| Vitamin C (also called ascorbic acid) |
Vitamin C is needed to form collagen, a
tissue that helps to hold cells together. It's essential for healthy
bones, teeth, gums, and blood vessels. It helps the body absorb iron and
calcium, aids in wound healing, and contributes to brain function. |
You'll find high levels of vitamin C in red
berries, kiwi, red and green bell peppers, tomatoes, broccoli, spinach,
and juices made from guava, grapefruit, and orange. |
Teen guys need 75 mg (milligrams; 1
milligram equals 1,000 micrograms) and girls need 65 mg of vitamin C a
day. |
|
Vitamin D |
Vitamin D strengthens bones because it
helps the body absorb bone-building calcium. |
This vitamin is unique — your body
manufactures it when you get sunlight on your skin! You can also get
vitamin D from egg yolks, fish oils, and fortified foods like milk. |
Teens need 5 micrograms (200 IU) of vitamin
D from food every day. |

cereals. |
Teens should get 2.4 micrograms of vitamin
B12 daily. |
| Vitamin B6 |

and nerve function. It also helps the body break down proteins and make

dried beans, soy foods, and peas; and whole grains like wheat germ. |

carbohydrates into energy and producing red blood cells. It is also
important for vision. |

meat, eggs, legumes (like peas and lentils), nuts, dairy products, green
leafy vegetables, broccoli, asparagus, and fortified cereals. |
