Hey guys, I wanted to bring up a couple points about fat-civil vitamins versus water-civil

vitamins, a couple simple differences. Fat-civil vitamins are stored in your fat cells and

in your liver. Water-civil are not stored, and if you consume too much, your body will

just get rid of what you don't need. The interesting thing about fat-civil vitamins,

and I'm talking about vitamin A, D, E, K1, and K2, is they're able to penetrate the fat

layer on your cells and go deeper and even affect the DNA and the mitochondria. Whereas

water-civil, most of them cannot bypass this lipid membrane, this fat layer right here.

So the water-civil vitamins are the B vitamins and vitamin C. Of course, we're not talking

about other nutrients like minerals or trace minerals. We're just talking about fat-civil

versus water-civil. Now, as far as when to take these, you would want to take these

with food, with fat, because if you consume fat, they'll be absorbed better. These you

can take any time because you don't need fat to help them be absorbed. They're water-civil.

Fat-civil vitamins are toxic in large amounts. Why? Well, because they're stored and they're

not able to be released through the urine like water-civil ones are if you take too much.

So let's say, for example, you consumed liver from a polar bear. By the way, have a tremendous

amount of concentrated vitamin A. Well, that can actually kill you. It's very, very toxic

and that quantity. But if you're taking the B vitamins with vitamin C, your body will

tend to get rid of them. You probably noticed that when you urinated after taking B vitamins

that bright yellow color of urine. That's the B vitamins coming out because you took too

many and you probably took synthetic. Usually when you take food-based or even nutritional
