When consumed naturally through foods, these nutrients are unlikely to cause harm, even when consumed in large amounts. Yet, when taken in concentrated doses in supplement form, it’s easy to take too much, and doing so can lead to negative health outcomes.
When taken in excess, some water-soluble vitamins can cause adverse effects, some of which can be dangerous.
Vitamin overdose occurs when a person ingests far more than the daily recommendation, for an extended period of time. Although the body can excrete excessive amounts of water-soluble vitamins such as vitamin C, it can retain fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin A, which can be toxic.
