Vitamins and Minerals?

My multi-vitamin has about 100 or more percent of the recommended daily dose for each mineral and vitamin. If I get extra vitamins and minerals from my meals and from this vegetarian protein shake I take, will I be getting too much vitamins/minerals? Could I overdose?

For instance, my multi has 35 mg, 175% of Niacin; my shake has 20 mg, 100%. In addition to that, I will probably be getting some extra niacin from the foods I eat. Am I getting too much?

Would it be safe to take my multi along with my two veggie shakes daily?

If you do not understand my question, please ask in your answer, as I will check back to answer anybody's questions.

Please tell me the source of your information- whether it is from google or you are a healthcare professional.

Niacin is a B vitamin which is water soluble. One way you would know if you are getting too much niacin is you'd get a "niacin flush" ... red and warm in the face. (Usually we flush out extra water soluble vitamins from our systems).

I'm glad that you are take care of yourself good and wants to be healthy. But i'm concerned maybe you are taking to much vitamins and pills at the same time. If i could recommend you, you should take them separately take turns. For example, take the multivitamin for a while and take your other vege pills later on. If you are concerned abou the situation a lot then you should ask your doctor and he or she can give you a better recommendation. Hope i gave you some information and answered your problem
