Supplements are becoming more and more common and according to the BBC, over 74% of Americans and two-thirds of Brits have turned to the tablets in an effort to enhance their health.

However, if you are turning to them, it’s crucial to make sure you know your stuff, especially the correct dosage.

For example, this year one American woman was left ‘one step from liver failure’ after consuming too many turmeric pills.

TikToker and neurologist Doctor Baibing Chen – known online as Dr Bing – has declared a warned against taking ‘too much’ of three supplements in particular.

Vitamin D

The first supplement Dr Bing has concerned is Vitamin D, which helps control the amount of calcium and phosphate in the body.

As per the NHS, these nutrients are necessary to keep bones, teeth and muscles healthy. It’s actually recommended by the UK Government that everyone should be taking Vitamin D supplements during the autumn and winter.

However, the issue happens when you take too much. The recommended amount for children aged one year and above and adults is 10 micrograms (mcg) a day. Meanwhile, babies up to the age of one year need 8.5 to 10 micrograms of vitamin D a day.
