kimblanchard Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 We were at the eye doctor today. There was an article on his bulletin board about supplements for better eye health. In big bold print it said Vitamin A should not be taken by smokers as some studies suggest it contributes to the development of lung cancer. I have never heard this before but it might be worth some research if you are doing a lot of vitamins. Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alisa Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 My herbologist told me this years ago, so he never had me on any Vitamin A or beta carotene. However, he told me it was ok to have natural Vitamin A (with food, i.e. sweet potatoes, etc.). He said it was only the supplements I couldn't have.
