can taking a multi vitamin do any damage to my liver?
I take vitamins everynight before bed and i know the excess vitamins that my body cant absorb will be excreted in my urine but i was wondering if there are and long term hazards to taking a multi vitamin or if it can damage my liver by putting extra strain on it?
Diet Pills and vitamins, are they hard on the liver.?
I do a pretty good job at losing weight by eating right and working out all on my own but results are slow and I been thinking about taking force factor or maybe xendrine to shed some pounds fast; however I am already taking vitamin D and an all natural protien powder that I get from a organic grocery store. But is it safe, I heard that too many vitamins and diet pills can be hard on the liver is this true?
What foods will build my iron level?

What should the daily calorie protein and carb intake be for a 19 year old 145 lb male?
Right now I am working on a daily diet routine to gain some muscle mass. This is defiantly a rough draft but so far all and all it came out to.
5128 calories
341 grams of protein
885 carbs
With the following mixed in with my six meals a day I would be eating.
Multi-vitamins (Vitamins)
Glutamine (amino acids)
Creatine (creatine)
whey protein (quick digested protein)
Casein protein (long term digested protein)
zma (magnesium, zinc, B12, B6, folic acid, hormones)
liver tablets (some same amino acids as Bcaa and glutamine but some different + essential vitamins)
fish oil (good for heart and joints)
weight gainer (extra carbs calories and protein besides food intake)
bcaa's (different amino acids then glutamine)
I feel like the calorie protein and carb intake for my weight is a bit much and too much of it will be converted in to fat rather then muscle. I read that for every extra 3500 calories consumed it equals a pound. So for every extra 500 calories I intake it would be a pound a week. Can anyone help me out with all of this? I just want to know how much calories protein and carbs to intake per day to not get super fat but to gain muscle mass and of course invertibly that bit of fat.
Are all of these mass building supplements good to take together?
Multi-vitamins (Vitamins)
Glutamine (amino acids)

zma (magnesium, zinc, B12, B6, folic acid, hormones)

Do any of them cancel out each other? Or do something the other one does as well? I typed in parenthesis what each of them do from researching online, but want some personal opinions as well. I only weigh 150, around 5'11 and 19 years old. Been trying to gain some muscle mass for a while now and am finally getting serious.

Too much Vitamin B12?
I'm a vegan who started taking B12 pills some time ago. Even though I drink fortified soy milk and eat fortified cereals, I figured I'd take a supplement to "top up"
Recently, I wanted to switch to taking an entire B complex supplement. I bought a 100 pill bottle of B-complex- in it, it provides 100% daily dose of B-12 (6mcg).
The thing is, I still have two bottles of B-12 lying around, one providing 100mcg a pill and the other bottle provides even more. I don't want to waste these two bottles of B-12, so my question is, is it safe to take 1 B-complex pill and on B12 pill a day? I know B vitamin is water soluable, but I also know that extra B12 is stored in your liver. Just double checking what the effects/ or waste would be by taking these two supplments each day.
I love how only the first two people actually answered my question, and the rest talked about other stuff. Thanks guys!
foods or other natural drugs or vitamins good for the liver?
I have a scarred liver from auto immune hep. My doctor has already started the process of getting my name on a transplant list. He thinks I will need one 5-7 years from now. I have no other issues aside from the scarring. I know better than to think I can fix it, but I would like to maintain it.... does anyone know of any foods or vitamins that are good for a liver? Willing to try anything.
Do you REALLY need a Whole Body Cleanse?
Doesn't your body cleanse itself of environmental toxins (pesticides, food additives, excess minerals and vitamins) itself? Is a store-bought cleanse---colon, kidney, liver, lungs, vascular, bowel, etc. cleanse----really necessary?
Advocates of these type(s) of cleanses claim that excess toxins in the body cause weight gain, skin problems such as acne, depression, memory loss, and all sorts of other ailments.
Can someone with knowledge and experience (only people with true insight please--no uninformed responders) please help me find an answer to this?
