Question about fish oil and vitamin E

Does fish oil enhance vitamin E absorption?

What about cod liver oil?

Thanks in advance!

I am not sure I understand your question.

Some fish oils, and other oil type products contain Vit E as a preservative to prevent rancidity.

You may see it listed in the ingredients.

Most oils are best taken with food, to enhance absorption.

This is how Vit E is absorbed:
