Vitamins and minerals play essential roles in the functioning of the human body. The deficiency of one of these nutrients can lead to serious health problems, while excess, in some cases, can also be harmful. Considering the hypothetical case of an isolated community where the diet is restricted and there is a scarcity of food, discuss the following points: 1) Explain how the lack of vitamin C and calcium can affect the health of individuals, detailing the metabolic processes in which these nutrients are involved. 2) Evaluate the importance of public policies and nutritional education strategies in this context to prevent and correct severe nutritional deficiencies. Consider the biochemistry behind the affected metabolic pathways and the social and economic impact of nutritional deficiencies.
