"This affects how the vitamin is absorbed, transported and stored," says Josh Redd, NMD, the founder of RedRiver Health and Wellness and author of "The Truth About Low Thyroid." Where water-soluble vitamins dissolve in water and are mostly eliminated in one's urine, fat-soluble vitamins dissolve in fat and oils and tend to accumulate in one's body –usually absorbed with dietary fats in the small intestine and kept in fatty tissues and the liver.
