multivitamins


Question
I use to take a multivitamin every other day just to make sure i had enough of the vitamins i need. I stopped taking them because they made my stool too hard. What do you suggest i do? What is the vitamin in that supplement that does that?

Answer
Vitamin supplements are all very different.  I never take any that are not organic to start with, which means getting them at the health food/herb store rather than grocery store or walmart.  Chemical vitamins can certainly cause constipation, as well as they aren't assimilated well into the body.

Go to your local herb store and get an organic multivitamin, preferrably one that is in a liquigel not a tablet.  Tablets don't assimilate as well as liquids so you don't get as much out of them.

If you find yourself constipated, which is rare with organic vitamins, you can always get a good herbal stool softener to take care of that problem, but truly I've never heard of anyone getting constipated from herbal liquid vitamins.
