They say many vitamins (like A and D for example) as well as many metals (zinc, iron etc) and calcium supplements, build up and can cause liver problems and kidney stones, so I've been taking less nowadays.

Once in a while I'll take a multivitamin, a folic acid supplement, and an occasional zinc tablet if I feel a cold coming on, but never on an empty stomach.

I guess if all of your suggestions are water soluble it should be safe.
