Taking vitamin D this winter? ⚠️
Too much vitamin D? These four warning signs could mean it’s time to stop.
Experts warn that too much can cause real health problems. Learn the four symptoms that mean you should stop immediately and how to supplement safely.
Vitamin D supplements are widely recommended, especially during autumn and winter when sunlight exposure is limited. In the UK, health authorities advise many adults to take a daily vitamin D supplement to support bone strength, muscle function, and immune health. However, health experts are warning that taking too much vitamin D can backfire, causing uncomfortable and potentially serious symptoms.
A growing number of people may be unknowingly exceeding safe limits by combining tablets, sprays, gummies, multivitamins, and fortified foods. According to experts, recognising the early warning signs of vitamin D overdose is crucial to preventing long-term health problems.
