Les vitamines sont subdivisées en fonction de leur solubilité : liposoluble ou hydrosoluble. Les vitamines liposolubles (A, D, E, K) sont résorbées, transportées et excrétées par les mêmes voies que les lipides alimentaires; elles sont stockées dans différents organes et peuvent être toxiques si elles sont accumulées. Les vitamines hydrosolubles (vitamines du groupe B, vitamine C) ne s'accumulent pas et sont facilement excrétées par les reins. 1, record 1, French, - vitamine%20liposoluble
