Be aware of vitamin toxicity

When it comes to vitamin supplements some of them can be toxic and make us sick if taken in large amounts.  The main culprits are the fat soluable vitamins, D and A, and to a lesser degree vitamins E an K. Ruth MacDonald, a nutritionist with the University of Iowa, says we need to pay attention to those especially if we are consuming more foods that are enriched and/or fortified with extra vitamins and minerals.
