An 89-year-old retired businessman died from an “overdose” of Vitamin D supplements that did not warn about the risks of excessive intake.

David Mitchener from Oxted, Surrey, reportedly had fatally high levels of Vitamin D when he was brought to the East Surrey Hospital last year in May and was suffering from hypercalcaemia – a build-up of calcium in the body associated with taking too much vitamin D.

He died ten days later.

    Don’t worry. He takes a bunch of different stories related to a subject - some of which aren’t extreme or no one dies - and combines them to create a completely fictional, ‘hypothetical’ one which is the one he uploads.

    Basically it’s just amplified by like 100x and he doesn’t list the sources.
