Question:
Must you eat fat to absorb calcium and vitamin D?
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, which is necessary for calcium absorption. Does that mean that there must also be fat in the gut in order to absorb calcium (i.e., that simply drinking nonfat milk on an empty stomach one would absorb neither the vitamin D nor the calcium)?
