While all vitamins a good to take, you need to that them when the time is right. Some vitamins you take everyday and some only a couple times a week if not less. You are absorbing what your body needs. Here is the break down of each vitamin.



1. Vitamin E - while it is good for your body, do not take everyday. It is consider a fat-soluble which stay in your liver and is released when needed. Check out this site for vitamin E.

2. Omega 3 - Try eating fish or tofu

3. Essential Fatty Acid Mix - If you use the mix you do not need to that omega 3. Use only the mix. It contains Omega 3 and Omega 6 which is primrose.



4. Evening Primrose - Is a rich source of Omega 6.

Aways look at the labels, cause even with vitamins to much is not good. In my opinion, take Vitamin E 2-3 days a week and take just the mix 4-5 days a week to be on the safe side. I don't belive that you are absorbing to much oil, and overdoing vitamins can cause you to get sick and have health problems, even weight gain.
Reply:Evening Primrose Oil can actually help with weight control, by stimulating fat tissue to burn up calories. I believe that Omega 3 has much the same effect. They actually help everything to run smoother, including your digestive system.

Reply:I eat those oily kinds and I don't feel like my weight is gaining so....... my answer is no.
Reply:No but you can overdose on oily vitamins such as E and A. You are ok with the others. Dont take a super high dose and maybe lay off one day a week.
Reply:vitamin e is wheat germ oil...you can research the calories on that...
