The recommended daily allowance (RDA) refers to the amount of essential nutrients needed to avoid a deficiency.
The latest safety report on mineral supplements was produced by the Expert Group on Vitamins and Minerals (EVM) and consumer advice was then published by the Food Standards Agency (FSA).
The current intakes of most vitamins and minerals were found to be safe. However, one substance - chromium picolinate - may have the potential to cause cancer and five supplements may cause damage if taken in large quantities over a long period of time.
Safe upper limits (SULs) were recommended for eight supplements and guidelines were given for a further 23.
Responses to the report have been varied - some organisations have welcomed the report, while others are concerned that people could be put off taking supplements altogether.
Experts say a balanced diet should provide healthy individuals with all the nutrients they require, but that some people may need supplements if they're ill, pregnant or have a poor dietary nutrient intake.
Promile offer a wide variety of the latest and safest vitamin and supplement tablets available.
