Answer:

  • Vitamin A (fat absorption/liver disorder): Dry skin (i.e. eczema)
  • Vitamine B1 (thiamine deficiency): Beriberi (wet or dry)..wet affect heart/circulatory system, dry can cause heart failure
  • Vitamin C (ascorbic acid): anemia, gum disease, skin problems, and scurvy
  • Vitamin D (calcium): bone loss/density; i.e. Rickets where bones become soft and bendable

Mineral dificiency (when your body does not absord or obtain the required amount of intake)

  • Iron (important for hemoglobin); low iron can cause anemia (causes you to feel weak or tired)
  • calcium (important for strong bones/teeth, supports proper function for blood vessels, muscles, nerves, and hormones); Calcium deficiency disease is osteopenia (left untreated it leads to osteoporosis--usually in older adults)
