A recent report highlights a growing health concern regarding supplements commonly perceived as safe due to their “natural” origin. Despite their purported health benefits, several supplements might pose serious health risks, especially to the liver, when consumed in slightly excessive amounts. This report underscores the importance of awareness and moderation for Thai consumers, many of whom turn to supplements as part of their health regimens.

The liver serves as the body’s detoxification hub, diligently processing everything consumed. However, this vital organ can become overwhelmed when certain supplements are taken in excess. Vitamin A, for example, though beneficial for vision, skin, and immune functionality, is fat-soluble, leading to accumulation in the body. Excessive Vitamin A intake can result in hypervitaminosis A, potentially causing liver damage, as well as other issues like headaches and nausea. For Thai readers, this is particularly pertinent given the popularity of multivitamins and skin health supplements which often contain Vitamin A. Careful label reading and dosage monitoring are advisable.

A growing health concern surrounds popular supplements marketed as natural and safe. While they can offer benefits in moderation, some supplements may pose serious liver risks when taken in excess. This article examines how Thai consumers can navigate supplement use with awareness and moderation.

The liver is the body’s main detox organ, processing everything we ingest. When supplements are consumed in large amounts, the liver can become overwhelmed. Vitamin A, while essential for vision, skin, and immunity, is fat-soluble and can accumulate in the body. Excess vitamin A intake may lead to hypervitaminosis A, with potential liver damage, headaches, and nausea. With multivitamins and skin-care supplements common in Thai households, careful label reading and dose control are advised.
