^Thanks for bringing the topic back. Well it depends on who you are. If you are a fat person i would not tell you to cook a bacon and cheese omelet cooked in butter with your daily vitamin D. See we have enough fat in our body and diet to make good use of the vitamin D. For an obese person i think he haves enough reserves to back up the D hehe. As for the lipid solvent well it is regarding the mineral oil that will take all the D and flush it out since it's not absorbed by the body at all!
''Vitamin D levels may be decreased by the following medications. If you take any of these medications, ask your doctor if you need more vitamin D:
Antacids -- Taking certain antacids for long periods of time may alter the levels, metabolism, and availability of vitamin D.
Anti-seizure medications -- these medications include:
* Phenobarbital
* Phenytoin (Dilantin)
* Primidone (Mysoline)
* Valproic acid (Depakote)
Bile acid sequestrants -- used to lower cholesterol. These medications include
* Cholestyramine (Questran, Prevalite)
* Cholestipol (Colestid)
Rifampin -- used to treat tuberculosis
Mineral oil -- Mineral oil also interferes with absorption of vitamin D.
Orlistat (Alli) -- a medication used for weight loss that prevents the absorption of fat. Because of its effect on fat, orlistat may also prevent the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin D. Physicians who prescribe orlistat also add a multivitamin with fat soluble vitamins.''
