Answer 4

Generally, yes, though it depends on the vitamin or supplement. Excess fat soluble vitamins are stored in your adipose (fatty) tissue and can reach toxic levels if you take significantly more than recommended. Excess water soluble vitamins on the other hand get excreted through your urine (ex: vit. C). Some other nutrients, such as iron, can also reach toxic levels. Short story: Read the box, follow it.

Answer 5

technically, they won;t hurt you. however, if the body digests more vitamins than it is able to handle, they will just get flushed out of the system by peeing or severe diarheaa. which is not good, either. it just gets the extra vitamins that it cannot use out of the body, so it has the right amount.

Answer 8

You certainly can overdose on vitamins. The human body can withstand only so much of one type of vitamin. There can be deadly results from consuming extreme amounts of vitamins. There are many vitamins and minerals the body needs to be healthy. The vitamins that the body can not store such as vitamin C, are the vitamins that the human body needs and could use extra amounts. The vitamins the body does store like vitamins E, A and D can be taken to the extreme of causing a vitamin overdose.

An overdose of vitamin B6 can cause serious damage, including sensory control and motor control loss.

An overdose of vitamin E can cause blood clots, fatigue, tumors in the breast, and reproductive problems.

Consuming extreme amounts of vitamins A and D can result in cirrhosis of the liver, fatigue and dry and itchy skin.
