class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"4:191\">part of the continuing education activities, the Department of Chemistry at the Faculty of science at the University of Mosul held, on Thursday morning, November 5, 2026, a scientific workshop entitled &#8220;excessive intake of vitamins between benefits and harms&#8221;.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"204:6\">The workshop<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"199:4\">aimed<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"215:185\">to shed light on the vital role of vitamins in the human body, and to demonstrate the relationship between the dose taken and the physiological response, while clarifying the effects of vitamin deficiency or excessive consumption.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"404:289\">The workshop dealt with a number of scientific topics, most notably that vitamins are organic compounds that the body needs in small quantities to regulate many vital processes, and that their deficiency may lead to functional disorders, while exceeding the amounts needed by the body does not necessarily mean achieving additional health benefits, but may entail harmful effects.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"697:48\">The workshop stressed that the health benefit of vitamins is related<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"746:154\">to meeting the needs of the body within the appropriate limits, and not to excessive intake, thus enhancing awareness of the importance of conscious use of dietary supplements and avoiding taking them unnecessarily.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"911:5\">The workshop was<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"904:6\">presented<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"939:212\">by Dr. rafad Rabie Saadoun, Dr. Wassan Khairallah Ali, Dr. Safa Abdulaziz, Dr. Ammar Abdul Sattar, and Dr. Basma Ahmed, in the presence of a group of Chemistry Department teachers and a number of people interested in the workshop topic from inside and outside Mosul University.<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"1155:3\">At<\/span> <span class=\"YPkS7KbdpWfGdYKd3QB9\" data-src-align=\"1159:4\">the<\/span>

scientific activities that contribute to spreading health awareness, enhancing the role of the University in serving the community and supporting the scientific research
