Health issues that can arise due to nutritional deficiencies

Maintaining a nutritional balance is the most important element of healthy living, as it can impact a wide range of bodily functions for people. A lack of a healthy diet can cause the following health issues -

Mineral Deficiency

Minerals are specific types of nutrients that the body requires to function. They are vital to ensuring that your bones, heart, and brain function properly, and that you are able to repair damage effectively.

Your body may not be able to acquire or absorb the right minerals in the right quantities which can lead to critical issues. Since there are 21 essential minerals required by the body, they need to be consumed via a nutrition-rich diet.

The major minerals are calcium, phosphorous, potassium, sodium, and magnesium. They can't be produced within the body, and a diet rich in minerals is key to ensuring balance.

Vitamins Deficiency

Vitamins in the body have multiple functions, which is why they are extensively studied and tested to learn more about their role in the body. They are also vital to maintaining immunity, and ensuring that we maintain healthy bones, skin, and mucous membranes.

While vitamin B is responsible for metabolic function and maintaining the CNS, Vitamin C is critical for wound healing and fighting off infections. A diet rich in vitamin balance is what our body needs.

In total, our body needs 13 essential vitamins which are vitamin A, C, D, E, K and the B vitamins: thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), biotin (B7), folate (B9) and cobalamin (B12). Fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K are stored in the body’s fatty tissues. Vitamin B12 is water-soluble and is stored in the liver.

Proteins Deficiency

Proteins are vital to health and development, repair of muscle tissue, as well as playing a vital role in hormone production. They are also referred to as the building blocks of life and are made up of amino acids. There are a total of 20 amino acids, 9 of which are essential and 11 are non-essential amino acids.

A balance of these 20 amino acids are required to stay healthy and ensure optimal functioning of various systems. A deficiency is reported if you aren't able to meet the daily requirements of protein from food, and you start to experience symptoms associated with protein deficiency such as muscle weakness, low energy, improper healing, etc.

Lipids Deficiency

Lipids are fat-like chemicals in the body that form a critical part of the membrane found between cells and in the myelin sheath that protects nerve cells through a coating. This ensures the prevention of neuro-degenerative diseases that are caused due to coating erosion. Lipids include oils, fatty acids, waxes, steroids, and other critical compounds.

Essential fatty acids are important from a nutritional standpoint, as the right amount of healthy fats are key to effective brain, skin, and heart functioning. You can be at a higher risk of cancer, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, cognitive decline, and chronic inflammation. if you don't have the right fatty acids.

  • depression
  • tingling and numbness of the joints
  • menstrual issues, such as missed periods or very heavy cycles
  • poor concentration

The relationship between Nutrient Deficiency & Immune Function

A deficiency of nutrients can alter the body’s immune response. Various studies have found that deficiencies in zinc, selenium, iron, copper, folic acid, and vitamins A, B6, C, D, and E can alter immune responses. These nutrients help the immune system in several ways: working as an antioxidant to protect healthy cells, supporting growth and activity of immune cells, and producing antibodies. Epidemiological studies find that those who are poorly nourished are at greater risk of bacterial, viral, and other infections.

What is a serum iron test?

The iron serum test measures the levels of blood iron in your serum (a fluid component of blood). It is used to identify iron deficiency and eliminate it. Too many levels of iron is also a cause of concern as it can impact liver health.

Why do I need an iron profile test?

Is Iron tested the same as ferritin?
