No deaths from Vitamins.
Quote:No one has ever died from taking vitamins, or minerals, or amino acids, or herbs, according to the latest annual safety records - and yet supplements remain the target of health regulators who want to control their supply and use.
By comparison, some half a million Americans die each year from taking prescription drugs.
There were no deaths from taking animo-acids, or herbal supplements, including Ginko Bilobs, Ginseng, kava-kava, St. Johns Wort, Valerian or from any traditional Asian or Ayurvedic medicines.
Neither were there any deaths from taking glucosamine or Chondroitin or any homeopathic remedies.
Prescription medicines however, weren't so safe.
Around 150,000 Americans die each year from an adverse reaction to a drug properly prescribed and taken, and a further 350,000 die from a drug incorrectly administered, whether due to error or deliberate overdose.
Unquote.
Scary stuff?

Re: No deaths from Vitamins.
I'm not sure but I think I read somewhere if you take too much of many vitamins you just expell them from you body, I know when I took too much of some I pee them out it's quite obvious. But I think some can be dangerous last time I was in hospital there was a young lady who had taken too much vitamin a I believe and she was quite ill.

On a plus note Vitamin E is very good for scarring. I took Vitamin E capules when I had an operation, used Vitamin E cream when the wound had healed and you can barely see the scar.People with dark skin scar worse than white skin, and it is often recommended to them to reduce their scarring.
