There could be a problem with vitamin overdoses.
Water soluble vitamins are quicky removed by urine, so taking too much of them does not harm (or help).
However the fatty vitamins cannot be easily removed from body so you can actually take too much of them and get sick!
The most common are vitamin D overdoses!
Vitamin D has been lately popularized as a panacea for lots of things, but please, be careful not to take too much of it!
You can get into a lot of trouble!

Since I only take about 2 or 3 of these a week, then too little is the issue.

I cannot take vitamin D in any form other than cod liver oil, but try to get sunshine when I can instead.

The one vitamin I am trying to get right is folate (b9). I have the MTHFR gene which means I don’t process folic acid well. Methylated folate is supposed to be better but even one pill makes me extremely jittery to the point I feel like I’m having a panic attack! Bloated too.

I think the amounts in most of these B supplements are just way too high for me. I also don’t think they should be taken daily like some other supplements.

This time of year in Michigan I begin sitting in the sun with my shirt off and wearing shorts. My skin is ready for summer. When one has no exposure to sunlight till July 4th parties, sunburns are sure to follow.
