| Yes, too much Vitamin E can be dangerous, just like anything else.

To be more specific, Vitamins A, D and E are fat-soluble, and thus will
accumulate in the body, even up to toxic levels. It's much harder to
overdose on Vitamins B and C, which are water-soluble and thus get
flushed out regularly (and by the same token, can also get depleted and
need to be supplemented.)

Professional = in it for the money?
