Answer 1

Nothing that has been proved so far. I would suggest you check with your doctor for known symptoms. For information on vitamins and their doses check out www.vitaminpros.com/beta-1-3-d-glucan.ht...

Answer 2

Doctors are investigating a possible link between heavy multivitamin use and the most serious types of prostate cancer, according to an article in today's Journal of the National Cancer Institute

Answer 3

You should first know the normal dose of various vitamins and compare it with that available in the medicine/tonic you take. It should not be higher than required.

Vit C and B are water soluble therefore they are excreted in urine when taken in excess. Other vitamins are fat soluble, and when taken in excess , they are stored in the body. When they become too high, they May cause problems by vitaminosis.

It is far from surety that your tonic may cause prostate cancer.
