A man was told to take high-dose B vitamins after blood tests showed he was deficient. Then he lost his ability to walk.
...
Taylor said her father didn't have any symptoms of poor health, but his doctor prescribed a 50-milligram vitamin B6 supplement to up his levels. Vitamin B6, like other B vitamins, helps the body convert food into energy by breaking down carbs and protein. Research suggests it can help the body's immune system and certain brain functions.
...
Within months, he started losing the feeling in his legs, and eventually went to the hospital after he could no longer walk, Taylor told ABC Radio.

Also:

Preventative care experts say vitamin A supplements cause more harm than good, as taking too many can lead to bone pain and hair loss.

This is how stupid the Western model of nutrition ("vitamins" LOL) is.

While we're at it, let's look at some history:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin#History

In 1881, Russian medical doctor Nikolai I. Lunin [ru] studied the effects of scurvy at the University of Tartu. He fed mice an artificial mixture of all the separate constituents of milk known at that time, namely the proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and salts. The mice that received only the individual constituents died, while the mice fed by milk itself developed normally. He made a conclusion that "a natural food such as milk must therefore contain, besides these known principal ingredients, small quantities of unknown substances essential to life."

No, the mice died because you were experimenting on them, you Western scientist! If you had simply let the mice eat whatever they themselves wanted to eat, all of them would still be alive! And this does not require the mice themselves to have any abstract concept of "vitamins"! Therefore we do not need such a concept either! All we need are our tongues!
