Vitamin recommendation
I am a 55 year old male who is supposed to be taking a multivitamin with
iron daily. The catch is that I am a big wimp and cannot stand these horse pills. Can anyone recommend a small pill or something chewable that doesn't taste too bad? -- Thanks in advance... Bob |

Yes. Eat your fruit and veg, plus legumes, plus low-fat meat, plus whole grains. Some supplements don't work as well as getting nutrients from food: examples are anti-oxidants and fiber. Who put you on this pill? Bob Newman wrote: I am a 55 year old male who is supposed to be taking a multivitamin with iron daily. The catch is that I am a big wimp and cannot stand these horse pills.

Can anyone recommend a small pill or something chewable that doesn't taste too bad? Most chewable multivitamins are designed for kids, so the potency is usually rather low for an adult. However, there are a couple of chewable multivitamins designed for adults: Country Life: Adult Chewable Multi. Labrada: Kwik Vites is a peach flavored liquid. Perhaps the best option is All One powdered multivitamins. They have a number of formulations for adults.
