Biochemistry | Vitamins

🍐 In this episode of PodBites, Sarah Haque and Shaimaa Jamiel take you on a flight through all the vitamins!

πŸŽ™οΈ Tune in to explore:

  • Fat-soluble vs water-soluble vitamins and why the difference matters clinically

  • Vitamin A: vision, epithelial integrity, immunity, and toxicity

  • The B-complex (B1–B12) as metabolic coenzymes and classic deficiency syndromes

  • Vitamin C and collagen: scurvy, bleeding, and wound healing

  • Vitamin D as a hormone: calcium homeostasis, rickets, and osteomalacia

  • Vitamin E and free-radical protection

  • Vitamin K and coagulation, newborn deficiency, and bone health

🌟 A structured, exam-ready guide that turns vitamin deficiencies into predictable system failures β€” with fun mnemonics to keep everything memorizable ✨

If you want it even more exam-heavy, shorter for Instagram, or with enzymes emphasized, just say the word ✈️🍐
