Hi Woody, actually in this case there is such thing as "too much of a good thing" and this pertains to most supplements actually. Here is what I responded to a reader on the SockDoc site who asked me a similar question, and one I should have addressed in the post.
Taking this stuff month after month, especially year after year is not healthy. I have seen numerous patients react to these supplements, most often with problems in their pancreas (blood sugar metabolism – makes sense as you learned from reading the post). So don’t think that more is better. It isn’t. And definitely don’t think that if it doesn’t work then it won’t cause a problem, because it very well could be, especially after all those years.
