I thought vitamin A was for the hair, skin? Now I hear vitamin E is for those things...Then what is Vitamin A for then? I was also curious Vitamin K too.

Also, my husband is 35 yrs. old and he doesn't take any kind of vitamins. Should he be taking any? He looks pretty healthy.

Your right, vitamin A helps cells reproduce normally, which leads to healthy skin, hair, nails...vitamin K helps promote proper blood clotting

Look in any nutritional books or even high school science textbooks and they tell you the general things you need to know about vitamins and supplements!

Or search for them on line!

I heard that Vitamin K is good to get rid of dark circles under your eyes- which I have badly. I'm just not sure where to find Vitamin K. I haven't really looked for it but I've never heard much about it.

Vitamin B I've heard is good for hangovers when you take if before you start drinking.
