Hello there!
While having a good supplement of vitamins can be good for
us, it can also be unhealthy for us as well.
Here is an example:
Vitamin A ~ Vitamin A can be good for many things including
vision, the immune system, and reproduction (pregnancy more or less). But while
vitamin A has a lot of benefits, to much of it can be bad for us, and cause
scary side affects. Some of these may include liver problems, birth defects
(again in pregnancy), or lower bone density. Some serious side affects may
include jaundice, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and in some serious cases
even hair loss.
In the word Vitamin nowhere does it say “Take as much as you
would like”. Yes, as much as we are to limit our access to ‘junk food’, we want
to make sure we limit our access to vitamins as well. While these vitamins are
needed for our bodies, we need to make sure we are taking just the right
amount.
Hope this helps you!
