 |
|
| I workout 7 days a week. I am going to start taking:4.5G of Kre-Alkalyn a day..75G of Alpha-GPC a day.7.5G of D-Ribose a day.This totals up to a workout stack of 12.75G a day.No need to worry about my diet because I am getting all my vitamins.I do know that the more of a supplement you take, the faster you will see results. Heres my question: I was wondering if this stack is safe? What could be the side effects of taking these many supplements a day? Would you consider this a large amount of supplementation? Please help, I dont want to be hurting myself.Healthy Helen, are you saying that since these supplements are not on your list, I wont have any side effects and cant damage my body? |

| five supplements could cause damage if taken in large quantities over a long period of time. These are: * Beta-carotene (a vitamin A precursor) - long-term excessive intake is linked to an increased risk of lung cancer in smokers and those exposed to asbestos. The FSA advises against taking more than 7mg of beta-carotene a day * Manganese - long-term excessive intake linked to muscle and nerve disorders in older people. According to the FSA, taking less than 4mg a day is unlikely to cause harm. For older people, the FSA says that 0.5mg a day or less is unlikely to cause harm. * Zinc - may damage the immune system. The FSA advises against taking more than 25mg of zinc supplements a day. * Niacin (which is found in two forms: nicotinic acid and nicotinamide) - long-term excessive intake linked to cell damage. According to the FSA, taking 17 mg or less of nicotinic acid supplements a day, or taking 500 mg or less of nicotinamide supplements a day, is unlikely to cause any harm * Phosporous - long-term excessive intake may damage organs and tissue. According to the FSA, taking less than 250mg a day of phosphorus is unlikely to cause harm. |
