1)water soluble vitamins and

The fat soluble vitamins are stored in the body for fewer days in the tissues and liver. They include vitamins A, D, E and K. All these vitamins play a role either directly or indirectly in their growth. Nowadays people are taking vitamin supplements available at the counter without knowing the real side effects that such steps lead to. These supplements can be in the form of pills or liquids. But our body requires nutritional vitamins but there are advantages as well as disadvantages while taking without the help of doctor.
