Dietary supplementation with vitamin E significantly increased the risk of prostate cancer among healthy men

Yikes, no I did not know about that; I just showed my wife the article, she's the real health & nutrition expert in our family.

And I just bought one heck-of-an-expensive bottle of pills! :-)

I've lost the source of this quote, but some wag once wrote, "I don't think I'll die a natural death because there are none left anymore."

The world is so complicated: food, supplements, drugs, all just a reflection of that. Impossible to be 100% informed.

OT Vitamins:

I believe I read alpha lipoic acid helps to limit free radicals.

I also take Leutin for eyes (AMD risk) and Krill and fish oil for cardiovascular and brain benefit. Oh and Vitamin C and Garlic.

Have you come across any negatives with taking these (or the combinations)? TIA
