Lorna Cane #187079 Hi Marilyn, Here is most of message 15302,from ECHorsekeeping(Link in earlier message). Dr. Kellon addresses feeding oil and E together: "To be absorbed, vitamin E and fat must find each other in the digestive tract. "Water soluble" vitamin E is E that has already been combined with fat to form a micelle so does not need bile or dietary fat to be absorbed. The only fat present in the digestive tract is fat from the diet. Feeding E in oil, or premixing powdered dry E with oil before feeding, eliminates the need for E and fat to find each other before bile salts can turn the complex into micelles for absorption."
