    multi-vitamins OVERDOSE?

    Hhehehe...in my quest to not be deficient in vitamins ever, I just took 3 capsules of a multi-vitamin, and 2 tablets of ascorbic acid (vitamin c)...distributed over the whole day. Now, is there such a thing as vitamin overdose? If so, is this it? Any bad side effects?

    Yes you can overdose on certain vitamins, but what you’ve taken doesn’t appear to be too excessive. The biggest side effect that you’re likely to get from this is fluorescent piss.

    yes

    you can od on A D and E, like what bexsome said, also i think you can OD on K but im not totally sure.

    A and E arent as severe i dont think however, but if you OD of D it could lead to life threatning diseases so be careful.

    Get all the viteman B6 and b12 and C because your body only takes what it needs and you cant OD on B OR C.

    Diarrhea. You can definitely get the runs if you take too much vitamins at once.
