Vitamins And Their Colorations
Vitamins and minerals come in many colors. Understanding these colors can be helpful in identification of vitamins, and for other factors which will be indicated in this article.
The most commonly used vitamins have specific coloring in their natural state. In their pure form, Vitamin C and Vitamin E are white. Other natural white vitamins include some members of the B Complex family, including Vitamin B1 (thiamine), Vitamin B3 (niacin/niacinamide) and Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine). Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) is pink in color. Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) is orange. Vitamins A and D may vary in their natural coloring.
