resolve major components of phospholipids in soybean lecithin (Figure 7).
Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) are essential nutrients with small
amounts required for various roles in the human body. Fat-soluble
vitamins are stored in the liver and fatty tissues, and are eliminated at
a much slower rate. As a result, they can pose a greater risk for toxicity
than water-soluble vitamins when consumed in excess. Conversly, some
