What is the link between fats and vitamins?
Vitamins A,E,D and K are fat - soluble (able to dissolve in fats). They are absorbed into the intestinal tract with the help of fat, and tend to be stored in the body longer than water-soluble vitamins (B and C). Because of that longer storage period, you are more likely to suffer ill-effects from taking too much of one of the fat-soluble vitamins.
