Side effects of vitamins

Supplementary vitamins may increase the risk of cancer, new research has claimed.

Scientists at the University of Colorado studied several trials, involving thousands of patients, over the past decade and found that those imbibing over-the-counter vitamins were more – not less – likely to have health problems.

The findings, presented at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) over the weekend, were surprising admitted the center's associate director.

“We found that the supplements were actually not beneficial for their health. In fact, some people actually got more cancer while on the vitamins,” Tim Byers, associate director for cancer prevention and control at the CU Cancer Center, said.

Interest in the supplements started roughly twenty years ago, when scientists noticed a correlation between those who at more fruit and vegetable and those who had less cancer.

The present research hoped to establish if vitamins could have a similar effect.

Although initial tests on animals were promising, Mr Byers said that when the trials examine human participants the results were very different.

“We are not sure why this is happening at the molecular level but evidence shows that people who take more dietary supplements than needed tend to have a higher risk of developing cancer,” he said.

Some people addicted to vitamins and they waste much more money on it other than fruits and vegetables. they spend highly for those vitamins and get effected by it. Eating more healthy fruits and vegetables is better that get expensive vitamins and There are no any side effects from fruits and vegetables. So, you better throw out all your vitamins and start eat healthy today onward.!
