Nevertheless, once a relatively low daily intake of these nutrients is exceeded\u00a0<strong><em>only minimally<\/em><\/strong>, toxicity rapidly ensues, with the highest intakes resulting in the greatest toxicity. This is in great contrast with some other nutrients, such as vitamin C, niacin or niacinamide, or vitamin K2, where toxicity is difficult to reach at any degree of intake or supplementation. Many other nutrient supplements, especially minerals, can readily be ingested to the point of toxicity, but the amounts needed are still much more difficult to reach compared to the minimally toxic intakes of calcium, iron, and copper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/greenmedinfo.com\/blog\/toxic-nutrient-triad-little-good-just-little-more-bad\">https:\/\/greenmedinfo.com\/blog\/toxic-nutrient-triad-little-good-just-little-more-bad<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most clinicians are familiar with the concept that when a little is good, more is often better, but a lot is still reliably toxic.
