Vitamins

[Miss Phode]

make me want to puke. I've taken them with food, without food, during food, before food. I've tried 20 different brands.

I'm going to go throw up now. I guess I'll have to live without vitamins.

Re: Vitamins

Do they contain iron? For some folks, iron makes them sick to their stomachs. You also don't need iron on Atkins. Go take a good look at the label.

Re: Vitamins

They definitely don't have iron. I won't buy vitamins with iron because I'm on Atkins.

Re: Vitamins

i am wondering and i have never checked on this, can you get vitamins in a liquid form and not tablet?
phode, i wonder what is making you ill when you take them?

Re: Vitamins

I get this awful pukey feeling, and usually I do puke when I take them. I've even tried the vitamins that are made from food. They're called New Chapter. They're super expensive and still nauseate me.

Re: Vitamins

would childrens vitamins make you react the same way, maybe?
not even sure that would be an option.

Re: Vitamins

I don't know. I think they're loaded with sugar.

Re: Vitamins

I take sugarfree scooby doo ones- because i hate swallowing pills.

There are also vitamin gumballs- and vitamin sprays you can try. Good luck.

My grandmother swore by her Geritol but that's loaded with iron.

Perhaps you should try the vitamins that come in separate supplements, rather than a multivitamin-mineral. You can probably get some daily multipak of pills at a convenience store or truck stop just to try for a day. Then only take 1 kind at a time, to see if you can identify if a particular supplement is making you feel ill, or whether its just taking any pill in general.

You can also find gummy vitamins. You'd probably get some sugar though.
