I think with uncertainty some people may err on the side of “supplements can’t hurt” and start or continue to take them.
For another perspective, I get a yearly physical and about 15 years ago I was having elevated ALT/AST liver enzyme results in my blood test. This lasted two years in a row while my primary care physician ran a dozen tests including for hepatitis trying to figure out what was causing it. Everything came back negative. She asked me if I took a multi-vitamin and I said I did, a daily Centrum.
She told me to stop taking it. I have never had elevated liver enzymes in the 15 years since. She told me overdosing on some vitamins was causing live damage as my liver struggled to process them.
