Beware these 3 supplements that can be really harmful if you take too much
Talk about supplemental damage. Today's world of wellness can sometimes seem like a merry-go-round of supplements promising you better sleep, healthier skin and extended longevity. But while many of these supplements can be a true healthy hack — what happens if you take too much? 3 A new study proves there really can be too much of a good thing. Diana Vyshniakova – A recent study published in the journal Cureus warns of the dangers of overdosing on three popular supplements. Selenium Found in Brazil nuts, organ meat, seafood, grains and dairy products, selenium is a mineral that can protect the body from infection. It can also help protect telomeres, the tiny caps at the ends of our chromosomes that shrink as we age and are linked to cancer, heart issues and other chronic conditions. But, taken in excess, selenium supplementation can lead to selenosis — an unpleasant condition marked by hair loss, nail brittleness and a metallic taste in your mouth. It can also be accompanied by gastrointestinal issues, fatigue and garlic breath. While symptoms generally abate after you stop taking it, nail growth might be slow to improve. 3 Taken in excess, selenium supplementation can lead to selenosis — an unpleasant condition marked by hair loss, nail brittleness and a metallic taste in your mouth. YULIYA – Niacin Niacin (Vitamin B3) is commonly added to 'detox' supplements and even energy drinks — and is often touted for its cholesterol-lowering properties. But, when taken in large doses, it can cause a bright red facial flush, burning skin sensation, itchiness and even liver toxicity. These symptoms are often misdiagnosed as rosacea or allergic reaction, especially among women following influencer-approved 'cleanse' regimens. 3 When taken in large doses, zinc can cause a bright red facial flush, burning skin sensation, itchiness and even liver toxicity. dream@do – Zinc Zinc is an electrolyte that's important for immunity, skin and hair health. However, taken in excess, zinc can cause skin irritation, copper deficiency and anemia — and may worsen acne in sensitive individuals. Overall, the study points to the fact that, while sometimes helpful, many social media trends can be harmful to the health of viewers. 'Recent analyses indicate that a significant proportion of nutrition-related content on platforms such as YouTube, Instagram and TikTok may lack scientific rigor or present unverified claims,' the study's authors write. 'A recent study evaluating nutrition-related TikTok posts found that 55% lacked evidence-based information, and 90% failed to adequately discuss the risks and benefits of the nutritional advice provided. 'Moreover, only 36% of analyzed posts were classified as completely accurate, highlighting the extent of misinformation prevalent on popular social media channels.'

Pregnant Woman Goes Into Labor, Then Sees Her Doctor From Hospital Window
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The dramatic moment when a doctor sprinted across a hospital car park to deliver a baby has gone viral on TikTok, racking up 4.6 million views. The footage, shared by mom-of-four Angelica (@epicangelicanatalie), shows Dr. Christopher Kraft racing against time, as she was already 10cm dilated when he got the call. Angelica, who lives in Houston, Texas, told Newsweek: "Dr. Kraft came in perfectly calm with a 'ready to have a baby?' As if he wasn't just running in July Florida heat." The text layered over the clip states Piece Epic was born five minutes later. Angelica holding her newborn son and her family visiting them in hospital. Angelica holding her newborn son and her family visiting them in hospital. Provided by Angelica According to CDC data, a total of 3,596,017 births occurred in the United States in 2023, down 2 percent from 2022. The general fertility rate also declined 3 percent, falling to 54.5 births per 1,000 females aged 15–44 in 2023. Kraft has been Angelica's doctor for the past five years, but Epic is the first one he has delivered—just over a week ago. She told Newsweek: "The last office visit I had with him I insisted that I did not want him to miss this one! "We timed it perfectly with a very light induction considering I was very far dilated already, and my son was born eight hours later." Before filming the now-viral clip—which has gained almost 557,000 likes—Angelica said a nurse had mentioned how they often see Dr. Kraft running from his office to see patients. Then, like clockwork, they looked out of a third-floor window and saw him doing exactly that. "We found it so caring that he puts in that effort, and funny at the same time," she said. "I'm usually the one with a camera in my hand, but this time my husband Sage was the one who was recording, and his commentary made the video so perfectly wholesome." Indeed, Sage can be heard laughing, saying "he is ready," and complimenting the doctor's pace. Kraft told Newsweek: "While she was in labor, I was seeing patients in my office and monitoring her progress very closely. The nurse had reached out to me and informed me that delivery appeared imminent. "Once I got the word, I rushed from my office down four flights of stairs and ran out the backdoor to the hospital. I needed to get there as quickly as possible to ensure her safety and the safety of her baby, and running was my only option." Angelica requested a Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC), and Kraft was supportive of her decision. According to the American Pregnancy Association, most studies show that 60–80%—or about 3 to 4 out of every 5 women—who've had a previous C-section can have a successful vaginal birth. However, there are risks, which is why Kraft didn't want to miss a thing. TikTok Reacts So far, the clip has over 3,000 comments - some from parents who recognize Kraft and others sharing their birthing experiences. "My doctor came literally stumbling in. Dude got caught in the curtain got twisted up and fell and popped back up and said it's baby time," said one user. Another wrote: "My doc knew I'd deliver within minutes, we called him and he was half asleep and said "IM ON MY WAY, LOVE YOU BYE" I said "love you too." "With my 2nd the doctor said it would be 2-3 hours until I had to push. Wrong, it was 10 minutes. He came crashing into the room said "whoops" and caught my son one handed," said a third commenter.

Millennial Mom Anxious About Baby's Sleep—Then Finds Her 1993 Crib Video
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Like many millennial parents, a mom from Arkansas spends a lot of time worrying about safe sleep practices for her baby—no pillows, no blankets, no bumpers and certainly no added mattresses in the bassinet. But a recently resurfaced home video from 1993 stopped Erika Glidden in her tracks. In a clip on TikTok, Glidden, 32, shared footage herself as a 2-month-old in her crib—complete with plush bumpers, thick blankets, a pillow and sleeping on her stomach. Footage from 1993 home video; Erika Glidden pictured in a crib surrounded by pillows and blankets. Footage from 1993 home video; Erika Glidden pictured in a crib surrounded by pillows and blankets. @erikaglidden A text overlay on the video reads: "Me: worried about a mattress in my baby's bassinet. Also 2-month-old me in 1993." Glidden told Newsweek she discovered the footage after her mom had a collection of old VHS tapes digitized using the iMemories app. What started as a nostalgic viewing session quickly turned into a hilarious and eye-opening reflection on how parenting norms have evolved. "I was just so shocked to see how much different the sleep practices are now compared to 30 years ago," she said. "[Back then], I was sleeping in a crib in my own room with extra padding, crib bumpers, a comforter and laying on my stomach. No owlet or breathing monitoring system and no baby monitor." Now, Glidden's baby sleeps in a bassinet with a fitted sheet and a sleep sack. "She wears an owlet sock to monitor her breathing and has a camera monitor on her the entire time," she told Newsweek. Today's sleep guidelines, recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), says safe sleep practices to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Key recommendations include placing babies on their backs to sleep, using a firm, flat fitted sheet and avoiding soft bedding such as pillows, blankets, crib bumpers or stuffed animals. Glidden's clip has gone viral on TikTok, amassing 4.3 million views and a further 377,000 likes. Thousands of users commented and were equally as shocked as the millennial mom was. Many others weighed in with the parenting practices they were raised with. "My pacifier was tied with a string around my neck," one user wrote. "I literally asked my mom how she got me to sleep through the night and she said, 'Idk [I don't know], I just went off to bed. I was tired,'" another commented. A third user added, "We're honestly built differently. My crib looked similar." "I did not expect it to blow up as much as it did, but I do agree with the majority of the reactions," Glidden told Newsweek. "I think millennials use humor to cope and that has been the majority of the responses, so I have enjoyed reading through them."
