Is taking all these supplements overdoing it?

Hi everyone,

Just a little background on me, I'm 31 and exercise and in good health (thank god).

I'm just wondering is taking these supplements daily over doing it?

- Omega 3 - 3 recommended tablets each day. For general health, depression,heart, mind etc.

- Grape Seed Extract - 150 mg daily - I take this as an anti oxidant and for my hair.

- Gingko Biloba - 240 mg daily - Ii take this for my ADD, better concentration and memory.


Now from what I know, all three are blood thinners. Taking them and taking maybe an aspirin for a head ache can be harmful from what I read. Furthermore, I've read some horror stories about people who have needed emergency surgery but they were not able to because they will not be able to stop the bleeding due to the anti clotting effect of these supplements.

Furthermore, I plan to take these supplements indefinitely, but it worries me of the long term effects of taking them. But then I think they are giving me better quality of life especially how good Gingko is for cognitive function. I don't know what to do, please give me some advice.

Absoluetly nothing wrong with the supplements your taking....Allowing extremely excellant blood flow thru out your body......Now, on the other hand....if you suffered a serious injury of some sort.......controlling your bleeding would be diffucult.....Depending how soon you got medical attention....you could very quickly bleed to death......So you have to weigh your options on this one.

if you FEEL something's working, keep doing that;
if something's not quite right and you suspect a particular thing, maybe cut back on it and see how it goes,
