How Much Is Too Much??? Vitamin B1 And Fish Oil... Posted: 01-13-06 15:27pm
I just started taking vitamins that my doc
recommended, but she didn't tell me how
much I should take. She said to take
vitamin b1, so I got a bottle, but it says
each tablet is 100mg and is 6667% of your
daily value. But I just read that women
only need 1.1 mg of it. Is there a side
effect of taking too much???
Also I heard fish oil was good for your
circulation so I just began taking that,
but I also heard that taking it can cause
blood to become too thin. Does anyone
know?
Does anyone know any vitamins that have
negative side effects from taking too
much??

That b1 supplement is rediculously high.
I am not aware of too many problems from
too much b1 because it is water soluable
but you need to clear it with your doc.
As far as fish oil goes, don't take it.
Eat fish and a good diet too and you wont
need the omega acids in a capsule. The
fish oil will also make you taste fish all
the time (rotten) and it can make you
smell offensive as well. If you want to
take a capsule that is like fish oil but
isn't, take the enfamil expecta lipil
capsules. They are designed for pregnant
and nursing moms but that has the
nutrients you are after without the
aftertaste and smell of fish oil caps and
also no mercury and lead and other toxins
that can be in "natural" fish oil caps.
