By definition then, all prescription drugs (approved by the FDA) will KILL...it's just a matter of dosage.
So that's the reason why we've got all these drug recalls and multi-billion dollar lawsuits against corporate greed.
A tiny, tiny bit of something is most likely nothing...but over a period of time, accumulating in your gut and fat deposits?
I think this is one of the reasons why our health care costs are skyrocketing.
We spend too much money on drugs that are slowly killing us, and not quite enough on quality foods that will PREVENT us from getting sick in the first place.
So far, I haven't heard of anyone who died from an overdose of vitamin pills, specifically. |
It's not the prescription drugs that kill or even non prescription for that matter, it's the dumb asses who take to much, a great example of that is the baseball player that died from ephedra causing the big uproar about it, he was overweight,hungover,dehydrated and he took way more than recommended. More people died from aspirine than ephedra every year but because of the American politial system and the miracles that lobbyist can work when it comes to protecting there interests, it's a broken system. What really pisses me off is there is no regulation for supplements, I can crush up rocks in my garage and legally cell it as vitamin c if I want to, tell that isn't just stupid.
