Vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) is fat-soluble. This meal's fat content significantly improves absorption.
If the meal's omega-3 sources are plant-based (ALA from walnuts, flax), supplementing EPA/DHA captures the marine forms your body uses directly — ALA conversion is poor (~5%).
B6 partners with magnesium and zinc for neurotransmitter synthesis. Co-occurring in this meal creates a stable matrix for the conversion pathway.
