How can I keep my vitamin pills from getting caught in my throat?
Swish the pills around in your mouth with a liquid like juice before swallowing. That will help them go down easier. Also continue to take a few good sips of the liquid after swallowing the pill. This forces you to swallow more and pushes the pill down. If it is extremely difficult for you to take pills, then opt for a liquid vitamin.

Antioxidants are compounds that help protect the body from cellular damage caused by free radicals. The body needs antioxidants because with every breath you take you generate free radicals, which are highly reactive substances that can attack and damage cells.

Can you overdose on vitamins?
It's very hard to overdose on vitamins. You can't overdose in the same way you can overdose on drugs, but that doesn't mean that more is always better when it comes to vitamins. Usually, if you take more vitamins than your body needs, the excess vitamins are excreted. Certain vitamins, such as vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D, niacin and iron can damage the body if the dosage is too high.
