Vitamins, minerals, etc?!


Question: One of my friends was taking vitamins, etc and blew up like a balloon (I say he gained about 14 pounds). But when he stopped taking them he lost the 14 pounds in a couple of days.

Can vitamins, etc make someone blow up like that and then when they stop the vitamins the swelling goes away?

Sounds like an allergic reaction. If you take vitamins make sure they are good quality vites.

Your friend sounds like he may have had an allergic reaction in a chronically dehydrated body. Nature has provided us with all we need to be healthy. A body eating a healthy diet of mainly fruits, vegetables, nuts and beans with proper hydration does not need vitamins, etc..

if you take what you need your fine but if you don`t need it than it`s different. you need to be carefull even with vitamins.

Highly unlikely. What probably happened is that he used those supplements as a excuse to change something else in his lifestyle. That is just like the study that came out today saying that diet soda actually leads to more weight gain.
