When your body sends you these signals, it means that…

Blurry night vision: vitamin A deficiency

Do you have trouble seeing in dim light? This could be a sign of vitamin A deficiency. In more severe cases, it can lead to xerophthalmia, a severe form of dry eye syndrome. To improve your vision naturally, eat orange vegetables like carrots and pumpkin, butter, or free-range eggs.

Dandruff and flaky patches: lack of zinc and B vitamins

Itchy scalp, persistent dandruff? These aren’t always purely dermatological problems. The cause is often a deficiency in zinc, niacin (B3), riboflavin (B2), or pyridoxine (B6). These nutrients are necessary for regulating sebum production and skin health. Possible sources include cheese, legumes, eggs, and seafood.

Hair loss: don’t neglect deficiencies

If your hair suddenly starts thinning, it’s a warning sign. Instead of blaming stress or heredity, examine your diet. Iron, zinc, essential fatty acids, and certain B vitamins are essential for hair growth. A balanced diet rich in oily fish, green vegetables, nuts, and seeds is often enough to reverse the trend.

Small, rough pimples on the skin: vitamin A and C deficiency

Have you noticed small bumps on your arms or thighs that look like goosebumps? It could be keratosis pilaris, associated with a deficiency of vitamins A and C. Regular consumption of sweet potatoes, kiwis, or chicken liver can smooth your skin naturally.
