5 “Healthy” Supplements That Can Trigger a Stroke While You Sleep (Seniors Must Watch)

Millions of seniors over 60 take supplements every day to “protect” their bones, heart, brain and energy… but what if some of those pills were quietly raising your risk of stroke, brain bleed or nerve damage while you sleep? transcrição In this video, neurologist Dr. Noah reveals 5 popular supplements that can become dangerous in high doses, at the wrong time of day, or when combined with common heart and blood pressure medications: 💊 Vitamin D (D3) How high doses (like 5,000–10,000 IU daily) can lead to vitamin D toxicity, high calcium, hardened arteries and stroke risk—especially when taken at night. The real story behind “Mr. Walter,” the 74-year-old veteran who thought he was protecting his bones and instead ended up with a nighttime stroke. transcrição 💊 Vitamin E Why large doses of Vitamin E act like an extra blood thinner and can increase the risk of brain hemorrhage, especially if you already take Warfarin, Aspirin or similar drugs. The case of Mrs. Evelyn, who suffered a brain bleed after adding “natural” Vitamin E on top of her heart medication. transcrição 💊 Vitamin B6 How “nerve support” and “brain focus” formulas can quietly overload you with B6, causing permanent nerve damage, numbness, falls and balance problems. The story of Mr. Harold, whose repeated falls were traced back to 200 mg of B6 per day—over 10x the safe upper limit. transcrição 💊 Vitamin A Why fat-soluble Vitamin A can build up in the brain and liver, raising pressure inside your skull, mimicking a tumor or stroke and damaging vision. How Miss Dorothy developed high intracranial pressure and vision problems after years of “skin and eye” mega-doses. transcrição 💊 Niacin (Vitamin B3) The hidden risks of high-dose niacin for “cholesterol support”: blood pressure spikes, heart stress and even mini-strokes (TIAs). What really caused Mr. Frank’s flushing, racing heart and brief speech loss each morning. transcrição You’ll also learn: Why the label dose on many supplements is far above what most seniors actually need. How aging changes the way your body processes and stores fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins. The simple “real food” breakfast Dr. Noah used to replace a drawer full of pills for one patient—and how her dizziness and blood pressure improved in weeks. transcrição This is not an anti-supplement rant. It’s a science-based warning: vitamins are powerful, and in older adults—especially with medications—more is not always better. ⚠️ Medical Disclaimer: This video is for educational purposes only and does not replace medical advice.
