Is it possible that there could be some nutrient/vitamin out tehre that hasn't been discovered?

Question

Well you know how we know that we need vitaminc c, iron, etc., well could there be something else that we don't know about that might help our health?

And I don't really know much about this stuff, so I don't know if it's known that there are tons of minerals or anything, but I'm basically talking about important ones. If it was important though, it would've already been known about, right?

Answer 1

Sure.

The importance of Omega 3 Oils was not known until recently.

Answer 2

Yeah, I'm sure there are.

No, It's not sure we'd know about all of them, even important ones.

We learned about many of the most important vitamins far after we thought we had found them all.

New ones are found ofter, because anything that affects the body on a metabolic level is either a chemical or a mineral.

Watch, tomorrow we'll find out that there's something in our bodies we've never heard of that we define as really important.

Free Radicals, anyone?  lol

Answer 3

yes

as a matter of fact the scientists are making and creating new vitamins that help the human body in ways that have not been thought of
