During the autumn and winter months, many people suffer from vitamin deficiency, which leads to a decrease in immunity.

Therefore, it is important to include in your diet foods that provide you with all the necessary elements.

Nutritionist Marina Kopytko spoke with Vechernyaya Moskva in more detail about what exactly you need to pay attention to.

First of all, the doctor emphasized that during this season people especially need vitamin C, which can be obtained from red pepper, sea buckthorn, lemons and oranges.

The body needs vitamin A, which protects against viruses and helps maintain good vision. Here you should pay attention to carrots, chokeberries and liver.

Don't forget about the importance of vitamin B12, which maintains hemoglobin levels. You can get it from meat and beef liver.

The doctor noted the benefits of vitamin E, which strengthens hair and nails. It is easy to find this important element in vegetable oils.
