Is there such thing as eating too many vitamins?

I use the app MyFitnessPal to track calories. Apparently, between 5 baby carrots and 2 vitamin gummies, it puts me over my daily needed amount of Vitamin A. Is that necessarily a bad thing?

There are two types of vitamins. Water soluble: Excess is removed by the liver and kidneys. Fat soluble: Excess will be stored in your fat and will be released when you suddenly loose a lot of weight. That might put a heavy load on your liver.

Not really. As long as you don't eat wayyyy too much. I think it's theorized if you eat a polar bear's liver you'd die from vitamin A overdose, but that's only due to the high concentration. Eating 200% of your DVR won't harm you lol

Some vitamins you definitely can do damage to yourself by ODing on them. But the small quantities you are talking about is not anything to worry about.

I'm no expert but from what I know there is a limit on how much vitamins your body can 'absorb' over a set amount of time.
Doubt it would be harmful though.
