Help with vitamins and herbs please.?

Hi basically, I have just received some vitamins and herbs from zipvit.co.uk and have a few questions. I fear I maybe overdosing on something and worry that I am in danger. I have got Milk Thistle 5700mg, echinacea300mg + goldseal100mg, vitamin b12 100ug, kelp+alfalfa, ginkgo biloba6000mg, rhodiola150mg...





Even if I am not overdosing on the main ingredients, what about these side ingredients? What are they? are they safe and do u think I am overdosing? or are they in tiny amounts??Dicalcium phosphate, mcc/vivapur102, sipernat22s, stearic acid bp, magnesium stearate, cellulose, silicon dioxide, microcrystalline cellulose bp, gelatin, cyanocobalamin 1% preparation, protein coating.





I am worried because I understand these ingredients are poisons. I also have a multivitamin a day and drink 2 ensure plus drinks (for bad nutrition from ulcerative colitis). I have more energy lately, but is my health/liver at risk?





Thanks for any help you could give me :) sorry its so long-winded.

I had a similar regimen to that once, and it made me terribly ill.
Reply:It sounds like what you are taking are synthetic vitamins. They are usually made by drug companies and yes, you can cause yourself harm by taking them.





If you are looking to supplement your diet with vitamins, you should look into whole food vitamins. Here%26#039;s an article I wrote that will tell you more about synthetic vitamins and the alternatives you can take. http://www.organic-home-online.com/organ...





Wishing you the best,

Reply:Regular drugs (some of the) are more poisioness then herbs.


Ginkgo biloba rarely may cause headaches stomacheache or an allergic reaction as well as restlessness and irritability. Not to be used with antidepressant MAQ inhibitor drugs like phenelzine sulfate, aspirin and Coumadin. May cause rash, diarrhea and vomiting in doses over 240 milligrams of concentrated extracts.


Goldenseal is not to be used for more the one week It decreases the absorbtion of Vitamin c. Leads to deficiency. If Pregnant, have high blood prssure hypoglycemia.or allergivc to chamomile and marigolds
