Why are fat-soluble vitamins considered in a low-fat diet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Very low fat intake may affect their absorption
Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble, so a small amount of dietary fat helps their digestion and absorption. A low-fat diet should reduce excess saturated or fried fat, not eliminate all fat. It should include appropriate unsaturated sources and enough nutrient-dense foods to prevent deficiency. Individual medical conditions may require additional monitoring or supplementation.
