Correct Answer: Vitamins A and D


Solution : The correct option is Vitamins A and D .

Fat-soluble vitamins, particularly vitamins A and D, can be harmful if consumed in excess because they are stored in the body. When ingested more than the body's requirements, these vitamins dissolve in fat and can accumulate in the liver, and fatty tissues. Excessive vitamin A consumption can cause hypervitaminosis A. Too much vitamin D can induce hypervitaminosis D, which causes increased blood calcium levels and can harm the kidneys, heart, and blood vessels.
