Correct Answer: A, D, E and KYour Answer: A
Explanation
Correct answer: A, D, E and K. Vitamins A, D, E and K are the four fat-soluble vitamins. Their absorption depends on normal fat digestion and they can accumulate in body stores, making excessive supplementation potentially harmful. All B vitamins and vitamin C are water-soluble, so groups containing them are not entirely fat-soluble.
