If you do not provide the body with the necessary amount of vitamins and minerals, it usually manifests outwardly in some way. Nowadays the advantage is that the missing health-promoting substances can be supplied to the body not only by adjusting the diet but also by suitable dietary supplements.
Among the most common symptoms are
- numbness of certain areas and a tingling sensation
- a reddened rash
- chapped lips
- skin lesions, and also
- muscle cramps and severe pain.
Numbness of certain areas and a tingling sensation
These problems most often occur in the area of the hands and feet, but can affect other places as well. Sometimes they are accompanied by hormonal imbalance, depression and fatigue. These are manifestations of a deficiency of B-group vitamins, especially vitamins B6, B9 and B12.
Regarding the diet, affected people should increase intake especially of beans, beetroot, chicken, eggs, spinach and asparagus.
Reddened rash
If you suffer from a reddened rash especially on the face, but possibly on other parts of the body and if you are also losing more hair, this signals a low level of vitamin B7.
As for diet, you should include more salmon, cauliflower, walnuts, raspberries, avocado, mushrooms and bananas.
Chapped lips
Chapped lips very often trouble vegetarians and vegans, who do not always manage to compensate for the loss of some members of the B vitamin group, zinc and iron.
You will supply the above-mentioned minerals and vitamins to the body if you increase consumption of red pepper, cabbage, chicken, lentils, peanuts, eggs, tuna, salmon and cauliflower.
Skin lesions
If white or red skin lesions form on your skin, particularly on the back, limbs and face, it is a sign of a deficiency of vitamins A and E and also fatty acids.
In your difficulties, consuming healthy fats, carrots, red pepper and green vegetables will help.
Muscle cramps and severe pain
If you feel cramps especially in the hands and feet, which are often accompanied by pain, it is a signal of a deficiency of magnesium, calcium and potassium. If you sweat a lot, it is more likely that these problems will appear.
Increased consumption of spinach, cabbage, almonds, zucchini, hazelnuts, cherries, apples and bananas helps a lot.
