Only synthetic vitamins can be harmful if taken in excess. Natural (food-based) vitamins will be flushed out easily by the body if not needed. They are much more easily absorbed, and you are thus more likely to experience health improvements with natural vitamins.

∙ 11y agoIt depends on the vitamin. If the vitamin is a water-soluble vitamin like vitamin C, your body will use what it needs and pass the rest (normally through urine.)
If it's a fat soluble vitamin like potassium, it can build up in your system and cause illness and potentially death.

When cosumed in excess water soluble vitamins are more likely reach toxic levels?
Vitamins that are oil (fat) soluable, such as vitamin E, A & D are retained/stored in body tissue and are the type of vitamin that you have to be careful of. Vitamin A is especially toxic, and it doesn't take much effort these days to get too much of it, with it now being added to so many processed foods that are sold under the banner of "fortified with vitamins and minerals". The oil/fat soluable vitamins aren't the only thing that you need to watch out for, too large of a dose of minerals, such as copper are bad as well. Water soluable vitamins, such as B & C are expelled in your urine, that's why urine becomes more yellow in color after you take one of the "mega dose" multi- vitamins. The excess that your body can't use goes down the drain in your urine, along with the money you spent on the excessive and unecessary dose. The practice of fortifying food with vitamins and minerals simply as a marketing ploy to get you to choose one product over another has gotten completely out of hand.
