Each of these statements is true:

• Water-soluble vitamins cannot be stored in the body: Vitamins like vitamins C and the B vitamins are water-soluble.
• Fat-soluble vitamins can be stored in the body: Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble and can be stored in the body's fatty tissues and liver
• The body can absorb more of a fat-soluble vitamin than required: Unlike water-soluble vitamins, excess intake of fat-soluble vitamins can lead to accumulation in the body

بی کمپلیکس وٹامنز اور وٹامن سی پانی میں گھلنشیل وٹامنز ہیں

جو جسم میں محفوظ نہیں ہوتے اور انہیں ہر روز استعمال کرنا چاہیے۔

وٹامن سی، جسے ایکروبک ایسڈ کے نام سے بھی جانا جاتا ہے،

ایک پانی میں گھلنشیل وٹامن ہے،

جس کا مطلب ہے کہ یہ جسم میں ذخیرہ نہیں کیا جا سکتا اور ہمیں اسے غذائی ذرائع سے لینا چاہیے۔

یہ وٹامنز کھانے کی ذخیرہ اندوزی اور تیاری کے دوران آسانی سے تباہ یا دھوئے جا سکتے ہیں۔
