Hypervitaminosis E is a state of vitamin E toxicity. Since vitamin E can act as an anticoagulant and may increase the risk of bleeding problems, many agencies have set a tolerable upper intake levels (UL) for vitamin E at 1,000 mg (1,500 IU) per day.〔(Vitamin E Fact sheet )〕 This UL was established due to an increased incidence of hemorrhaging with higher doses of supplemental vitamin E. Doses of vitamin E above the UL can also magnify the antiplatelet effects of certain drugs such as anti-coagulant medications and aspirin, which can cause life-threatening symptoms in ill patients. Hypervitaminosis E may also counteract vitamin K, leading to a vitamin K deficiency. ==Signs and symptoms== *Blotchy skin *Increased bleeding *Increased blood level of triglycerides *Decreased production of thyroid hormones *Decreased activity of vitamin K *Increased bleeding from aspirin or anti-coagulant medications 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hypervitaminosis E」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
