Hold off on the megadoses of antioxidant vitamins like C and E.
A study by researchers at Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute shows that
you can overdose on these health aids, and the result could be mutated
stem cells that cause cancer.

“In everything, moderation”
As some old guy said about thousands of years ago.
Of course, I do violate the rule with some of my “guilty pleasures”.
E.g., too much time on FR!!!

Quick! Let’s regulate them and tax supplements out of business! We need a Comprehensive Bill immediately. Oh, there is already one on the table slipped in under the Bank Reform Bill? Never mind...

I realized this when taking extra vitamins made no noticeable difference in my health.
Only take the vitamins that your body actually needs.
Anything above that is a waste of money at best, and possibly harmful at worst.

Is it me, or is anyone else suspicious that this came out the same time that Waxman's little FTC empowering law was exposed? Suddenly we now have a reason for the FTC and or FDA to control those dangerous vitamins.
They've been attacking the vitamin and nutritional supplement industry in Britain and Europe as well.

"We sought to counter that oxidation problem by adding high doses of antioxidants directly to the cells," Marbán said. "That's when we made the serendipitous discovery that there is a danger zone for the cells exposed to antioxidants to develop genetic abnormalities that predispose to cancer." This is in laboratory experiments not in the world. To leap to their conclusion is very un-professional and un-scientific.
