Multivitamin

[mytimetoshine]

Hi all, I'm new to this and started slim and save today.

In regards to the multivitamin which one do you take? Is Asda's own good enough or anyone recommend anything else?

Thanks

I would recommend a pregnancy multivitamin as it doesn't contqin any vitamin A and too much vitamin A can be quite bad for you. As you have vitamin A in your packs taking a full multivitamin on top could push you over on vitamin A.

Some of the symptoms include blurred vision, bone pain, headaches, diarrhea, loss of appetite, skin scaling & peeling and muscular weakness.

I love berrocca but I guess I shouldn't take that then as it probably contains loads of vit A...

im taking a well woman pro biotic, always have done anyway.

as for the vitamin A thing, when in ketosis you rarely absorb whats in most vits anyway due to the ketosis process being so fast.

most bodybuilding advice is to take 2 to ensure 100% RDA... so im not worried...

Oh wow! is this really true?? I take a multivitamin daily (Pregnacare) but also take a really high dose B12 supplement which I get on prescription. Now I'm wondering if I should up my dose of B12 even more...

Thanks for posting this!

Also if any of you are losing weight to become pregnant, vit a is bad for growing unborn baby, which is why its not in the pregnancy vits. Tesco own is a good one, also there well women one doesn't have any in, if you don't want the pregnancy one on your shelf at home lol
