Question

What can happen when you have taken much more than the normal amounts of vitamins?

Answer 1

Answer:

Taking vitamins is a daily routine that has millions of people around the world. However, taking too many vitamins can lead to an overdose and be dangerous to health.

Explanation:

For example, water-soluble vitamins (vitamin B1, B2, B3, etc.) are excreted from the body and are not stored in the tissues. However, an overdose of some of these vitamins can induce side effects, such as irreversible nerve damage, or liver damage.

Meanwhile, fat-soluble vitamins (vitamin A, D, K, etc.) do not dissolve in water and can be stored in your body's tissues. Due to the accumulation of these vitamins, they are likely to produce toxicity or harmful effects much more than water-soluble vitamins.

Answer 2

Your body can either ignore the nutrients or reject them.

You can get sick from certain vitamins because your body wont be able to digest all of them, causing negative affects on your organs.

You can also just have nothing negative happen. For example, taking an extremely high dose of vitamin D3 would most likely not hurt you, however after a certain point you would not gain anything from it.
