Pnuemonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The liver stores vitamin A, D, E, K and B12. The first four of these are all fat soluble. This means that the bile secreted during digestion is essential for absorbing them so that the body can use them. If bile production is compromised by liver damage, the proper absorption of these vitamins may be affected.

Detailed explanation-2: -B-complex vitamins and vitamin C are water-soluble vitamins that are not stored in the body and must be consumed each day.

Detailed explanation-3: -Even in high doses, most vitamins have few adverse events and do not harm the liver. Many vitamins are normally concentrated in, metabolized by and actually stored in the liver, particularly the fat soluble vitamins.
