Classification of vitamins

Vitamins can be classified into groups according to different kinds of ways - the most common one is the division according to their solubility. we distinguish between fat-soluble vitamins and water-soluble vitamins.

Vitamins A, D, E and K belong to fat-soluble vitamins. Their deficiency occurs in people who suffer from digestive system diseases and those who do not have proper nutrition for long time. Other vitamins (vitamin C and B complex vitamins) are soluble in water. They stay in the human body for relatively short time and if there is an excess of them in the body, they are excreted through urine or sweat.
