Answer:

Water-soluble vitamins are not stored in the body and are excreted in the urine quickly. Unlike water-soluble vitamins, fat-soluble vitamins are dissolved in fat and an excess of them would lead to toxicity if consumed in large amounts because it would lead to rancidity, and they are not easily excreted by urine like water-soluble vitamins.
