If you suspect skin cancer, consult a dermatologist. Monitor any changes in moles or spots using the ABCDE rule. Take photos for documentation and avoid self diagnosis.

Maam i dont have a particular nutritionist thats been looking over my health, and also i am taking the dosage according as per given on the internet what should be the ideal dosage of each supplement so even now is it harmful to such extent that it will have negative effect on my body because i have read various articles and seen numerous videos where they say we can take multiple vitamins and minerals together in right dosage as most of us are deficient in it so is it still that harmful

Going ove­rboard with the supplements can hurt instead of helping. Upset tummy, fe­eling tired, eve­n nerve damage. Chat with a doctor to get the right amount for you.
