Vitamins can be either water-soluble or lipid-soluble?
Yes, some vitamins are water-soluble, such as vitamin C and the B vitamins, and are easily absorbed and excreted by the body. Lipid-soluble vitamins, like vitamins A, D, E, and K, are stored in fatty tissues and are better absorbed with dietary fats. Both types are important for overall health and must be obtained through diet or supplements.

Water-soluble vitamins dissolve in water and are easily absorbed by the body, but they are not stored in large amounts and are excreted through urine.

How are vitamins metabolised in cows?
In cows, vitamins are metabolized through a combination of absorption in the digestive system and conversion to active forms. Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) are absorbed in the intestines along with dietary fats, while water-soluble vitamins (such as B vitamins and vitamin C) are absorbed directly into the bloodstream. The liver plays a crucial role in storing and converting these vitamins into their active forms, which are then utilized for various physiological functions. Additionally, rumen bacteria can synthesize certain B vitamins, contributing to the cow's overall vitamin supply.
