⚕️ Overall Analysis
Helps with: fatigue prevention, blood health, nerve function, skin repair, and energy stability.
Potential excess symptoms: dizziness, nausea, or joint stiffness if vitamin A and sodium remain high for days.
Potential deficiencies avoided: good iron, B12, and omega-3 levels protect against anemia, low mood, and poor focus.
