A child in Hong Kong had to have a liver transplant due to excessive intake of vitamin A. The pharmacist said that vitamins are necessary elements to maintain life, but they are not a panacea, nor can they balance the nutritional deficiency of too much junk food, and excessive intake may cause harm to the body.
Shi Libiyu, director of the Pharmacy Department of Taipei Renai Hospital, pointed out that vitamins greatly contribute to maintaining the body's metabolism, and can keep the body alert and prevent bacterial invasion. Some vitamins can be produced by the body, while others must be obtained from food , and the safest and most effective source of the latter is a variety of natural and fresh foods, fruits and vegetables.
Shi Libiyu pointed out that in the hospital, such as: family members stay up late, life is not normal, what nutrients or vitamins should be supplemented? Can this can of vitamins brought back from the United States be eaten? Do I need vitamin supplements? ... and so on are often asked.
According to estimates, nearly 53% of the people in Taiwan have the habit of taking vitamins, but do they really need it?
"She said that before considering whether you need vitamin supplements, you should first consider whether you have a balanced diet. Modern people live a busy life, and it is easy to ignore certain foods, or often eat junk food. Supplementing a multivitamin every day should be enough. Although excessive intake of water-soluble vitamins can be excreted with urine, but excessive intake of fat-soluble vitamins will accumulate in the liver, which may cause poisoning. (The only thing that needs to be corrected here is that we should not eat fast food That's right) "
However, Shi Libiyu said that for most people, there is no need to supplement vitamins, and they only need to choose more foods that are more beneficial to health.
She said that convenient fast food and delicious junk food also contain basic vitamins, but they contain more fat, cholesterol, sodium and sugar. If you think you can balance the lack of junk food through vitamin supplements, then Big mistake; since vitamins cannot counteract overeating or excess fat, only a balanced diet will help the body.
