Vitamins are Divided into Two Categories: Water Soluble and Fat Soluble
Vitamins are divided into two categories: water soluble—which means the body expels what it does not absorb—and fat soluble where leftover amounts are stored in the liver and fat tissues as reserves.
- The water-soluble vitamins are the eight B vitamins (B-1, B-2, B-3, B-5, B-6, B-7, B-9, and B-12) and vitamin C.
- The fat-soluble vitamins are A, D, E, and K.
