Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Malabsorption of fat can lead to a deficiency in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and minerals, including calcium and magnesium. Iron and selenium absorption is not directly affected by fat malabsorption. Zinc and manganese are not typically affected by fat malabsorption either. Phosphorus and calcium can be affected by malabsorption, but not necessarily as a direct consequence of fat malabsorption. Sodium and potassium are generally not affected by fat malabsorption.
