Vitamins?? too much??


Question: Can you take too much of Vitamin B complex?? Or any vitamin at that matter. Has anyone heard that B vitamins can cause suicidal thoughts??
Answers: the excess is excreted in urine sweat and faeces,deficiency is more common
WELL I DO REMEMBER WHEN I TOOK A WHOLE VITAMIN IT WOULD UPSET MY STOMACH SO I WOULD HAVE TO CUT IT IN HALF...SO IN MY OPINION I AM PRETTY HEALTHY AND DIDNT NEED VITAMINS REALLY...SO I GUESS IT IS POSSIBLE TO HAVE TOO MUCH.
Their suppost to make you happier
YES!!!!! You can overdose on ANY vitamin. And, YES overdose of vitamin B6 is associated with suicidal thoughts.
No you can not!! They are water soluble. The best place to learn more is at: www.nutrilite.com
There are 2 types of Vitamins; Fat soluable and water soluable.
Water soluable vitamins are fine. You can take large doses but your body will use only what it needs, then flush out the rest. Vitamin C, all the B vitmains except vitamin B12. The B12 is stored in the liver and can reach toxic levels
Fat soluable gets stored in the fat cells of the body and can buld up. These include A, E, and K
Forget Vitamins in a bottle, just eat good fresh food, save you tons of money too.
You can overdose on all vitamins even though the excess is often eliminated, as in the case of the water soluble vitamins B and C. Too much vitamin C can give you kidney stones and also acts as a diuretic and too much vitamin B can apparently give you neurological problems.
Too much of vitamin B complex is harmful to liver.I have not heard about its effect on mind or suicide.
