Although currently there is little research being done either in Taiwan or abroad on the side effects of health food products, any clinical physician can provide a number of examples. For instance, vitamin E can keep blood platelets from clotting; during surgery, it may lead to an excessive flow of blood.
雖然目前國內外還少有針對健康食品的副作用做專門研究，但是臨床醫師都可以舉出一些例子，例如維他命 E 會抑制血小板凝血，開刀時可能會血流不止。
