Detailed explanation-1: -The water-soluble vitamins include ascorbic acid (vitamin C), thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine, pyridoxal, and pyridoxamine), folacin, vitamin B12, biotin, and pantothenic acid.
Detailed explanation-2: -Vitamin C and members of the vitamin B complex are water-soluble.
Detailed explanation-3: -"Vitamin C, which is a water-soluble vitamin that is not stored in the body, may be better taken as a slow release tablet or capsule, which is designed to release vitamin C gradually and therefore maintain optimum levels over a longer period of time.
Detailed explanation-4: -Vitamin C is water-soluble because of the individual molecules of ascorbic acid, the chemical name for vitamin C, separate and disburses when exposed to water. The solubility of a chemical is based on how much of that chemical can be dissolved in a liter of water without precipitating out of the mixture.
