As I said on another thread, allopathic medical school is extremely short on vitamins. I understand Vit C and D for immune system boosting. Vitamin A? Can you help explain to me so I can be educated. I am under the impression toxicity with water soluble is nearly impossible, but fat soluble A, D, E, K can be overdosed.... Thoughts?

Correct, water soluble Vitamins can be toxic, however the amount taken has to be very high, ie. 10 x times suggested dose for many months. For Vit A it would take approximately 9-10 months at this level to see a toxicity. It would usually present itself first as a yellowness of the eyes.
