Lipid Soluble Vitamins
Lipid soluble vitamins are a group of essential vitamins found in the diet, which are able to dissolve in lipids, or fats. They include vitamins A, D, E, and K. These vitamins are involved in important body functions such as vision, immune system development, red blood cell production, and blood clotting. A deficiency in one or more of these vitamins can lead to serious medical conditions. To ensure that adequate amounts of these vitamins are consumed, food sources rich in them, such as dairy products, fortified cereals, and leafy greens, should be included in the diet. Supplements may also be taken to boost intake levels.
