The body has an efficient system to absorb, metabolize, store and excrete vitamins so that it gets what it needs to function and it eliminates the excess. Vitamins B and C are water soluble and any surplus of these vitamins is excreted in the urine.
The two different types of vitamins are fat-soluble vitamins and water-soluble vitamins. Fat-soluble vitamins â vitamins A, D, E and K â dissolve in fat before they are absorbed in the bloodstream to carry out their functions. Excesses of these vitamins are stored in the liver, and are not needed every day in the diet. For more information on fat-soluble vitamins, see fact sheet 9.315 Fat-Soluble Vitamins: A, D, E, and K. In contrast, water-soluble vitamins dissolve in water and are not stored by the body. Since they are eliminated in urine, we require a continuous daily supply in our diet.
