Overview
•Selenium at 300mcg is at the upper tolerable limit (UL) of 400mcg/day per NIH, risking selenosis with long-term use exceeding this.
•Echinacea may cause mild GI upset or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals; avoid if allergic to daisy family plants.
•High vitamin E (40mg) is safe for most but may increase bleeding risk when combined with anticoagulants like warfarin.
•Not recommended during pregnancy due to high selenium dose potentially exceeding safe limits for fetal development (NIH guidelines).
•No major allergens listed, but gelatin may pose issues for vegans; monitor for interactions with chemotherapy drugs due to echinacea.
•Calcium (58mg) and folate (667mcg DFE) are within safe ranges, but consult doctor if on thyroid medications due to selenium's role.
