What are fat-soluble vitamins?

The fat-soluble vitamins are one of the two groups in which we classify vitamins, which have the particular characteristic that they are dissolved in fats and oils, which the body is able to store.

The fact that the body is able to store them means that, unlike the other group of vitamins , the excess is not excreted in the urine. The fat-soluble vitamins will be stored in the liver and in fatty deposits in the body.

The fat-soluble vitamins are: A, D, E and K. They have regulatory and antioxidant functions among many others.

Where are fat-soluble vitamins absorbed?

Fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed in the intestine . For this process to take place, the presence of fat, provided by food (olive oil, avocado, salmon, nuts, etc.) is necessary for them to be absorbed.

These vitamins will then pass into the body's tissues , where they will be stored until the body requires them to carry out the functions in which they are needed.
