What is megadosing?
Megadosing refers to taking higher than needed amounts of supplements and vitamins. The human body has specific requirements it must have to live healthy. These requirements are reflected in the nutrition labels of food products and supplements. The Institute of Medicine has also established a "tolerable upper limit of normal" at which side effects have been documented for just about all of these nutrients.
As an example, fat and cholesterol are needed by our bodies for the formation of cell walls and other functions. However, in excess amounts they cause harm by accelerating the process of atherogenesis (cholesterol and fatty plaques in the lining of arteries) which leads to heart disease and stroke. It basically comes down to "too much of a good thing is not good."
The Socle brand pays attention to these important scientific facts and produces a superior product that will provide what our bodies need without the dangerous effects of megadosing.
