Vitamins and Supplements

Water-Soluble vs. Fat-Soluble Vitamins

Vitamins are essential micronutrients classified based on their solubility:

Water-Soluble

Includes Vitamin C and the Vitamin B complex (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, biotin, B12, and folate). These dissolve rapidly in water, cannot be stored long-term in the body, and must be replenished regularly.

Fat-Soluble

Includes Vitamins A, D, E, and K. Absorbed through the intestines with lipids, they are stored in the liver and adipose tissues. Their release is regulated over time, meaning their intake must be precisely measured.

Natural Sourcing vs. High-Standard Synthesis

Whether derived from natural sources (like citrus or fish liver oils) or synthesized in specialized laboratories (such as using acetone for Vitamin A or keto acids for Vitamin C), the chemical composition of vitamins is identical. Yashar'el Chemicals Ltd partners exclusively with certified global manufacturers who produce synthetic and natural vitamins under strict quality controls complying with BP, USP, and EP pharmacopoeia standards.

The Crucial Role of Excipients in Vitamin Formulations

To form stable tablets and capsules, vitamins must be combined with high-grade excipients:

  • Maltodextrin & Microcrystalline Cellulose: High-efficiency binders and fillers that add weight and aid tableting.
  • Starch: Serves as a disintegrant, helping the tablet break down correctly in the digestive tract.
  • Stearic Acid: Acts as a lubricant during machine pressing.
  • Cellulose Bases: Provide protective enteric coatings to safeguard active vitamins from moisture and stomach acids.

Key Applications Across Industries

Our vitamin raw materials are vital ingredients utilized to manufacture:

  • Dietary supplements and multivitamin softgels
  • Fortified food, beverages, and energy drinks
  • B-complex capsules and pharmaceutical tablets
