♫♫ One of these things is not like the others. ♫♫
If the advice is just don't mega-dose the things, well - duh. The things even have warnings to that effect:

Right there on the tube - 'do not exceed the recommended daily dose.'
I take that advice to be fairly uncontroversial. Lots of things are going to kill you if you take too much of them. Just don't be a bit silly and expose your body to really high levels of things that it'd never get anywhere near in nature without doing the research first.
I suspect that people don't think it's particularly risky because it's so concentrated - if they had to sit down and eat their way through packets of much less concentrated pills maybe they'd start to worry about loading their systems with so much stuff. :/ -shrug-
