They act as catalysts for biochemical reactions in the human body. If we compare our bodies to a machine, then vitamins are the lubricating oil that ensures the smooth and efficient operation of this human machine, playing an indispensable role. Vitamins are one of the six major nutrients for humans, serving as coenzymes for metabolic biochemical reactions in the body.

Recent studies have found that vitamins are not only essential for human metabolism and life activities but also some vitamins have the function of preventing cancer. Additionally, some vitamins have been proven to have anti-aging and longevity-enhancing effects.
