A Vita Z

Any one use this for Diabetes pain in feet and legs? And? ## In countries such as India, it is frequently prescribed by doctors to help with the nerve damage and pain that diabetics often experience.

is revital capsule is useful for ldy with age 40, she is having problm of menustration. ## Revital is a multivitamin/mineral supplement, not a medication. That means that while it has been claimed to help with many conditions, it is not actually proven to do so. The only thing it is known to actually help with is a deficiency in the nutrients it contains. This one, specifically, contains: Calcium 75.0 mg Phosphorus 58.0 mg Vitamin C 50.0 mg Ferrous Fumarate 30.0 mg Zinc (as zinc oxide) 10.0 mg Nicotinamide 10.0 mg Calcium D-Pantothenate 5.0 mg Vitamin E Acetate 5.0 mg Magnesium (as Magnesium Sulphate) 3.0 mg Potassium (as Potassium Sulphate) 2.0 mg Vitamin B2 1.5 mg Vitamin B1 1.0 mg Vitamin B6 1.0 mg Manganese (as Manganese Sulphate) 0.5 mg Copper (as Copper Sulphate) 0.5 mg Folic Acid...

PLIVA Vitamin D. Does anybody else take this and what side effects are there? One a week. ## VIT D 50,000 UNITS BY PLIVA......I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT THE DYE CONTENT....ALLERGIC TO RED AND BLUE DYES ## This is just a nutritional supplement, so for most people there are no real side effects, other than perhaps a bit of nausea due to the high dosage.

used for rat poisoning in humans ## It's sad to see things were to scared to test on ourselves being tested on animals; even rats. In the case of supplements or Vitamin K in this instance, you never know exactly what they do in their testing facilities to ensure it works the way they want it to work. Word of advice: Get your vitamins and minerals from whole fresh ripe raw organic fruits and vegetables, and you can be assured you are getting plenty of what you need if you incorporate this eating habit on a regular basis. You are also doing the rats (and other animals) a favor by not supporting and buying into these failed products. ## Vitamin K is an essential nutrient that is vital for calcium metabolism, blood clotting, heart health and much more. Usually the blood thinner called C...

4 pills per pack 2 yellow 1 red 1 white ## i have been taking vita clear for two weeks now and i always feel naseated why is that? ## This is an over the counter supplement, so I can't find much information on it. However, over the counter or not, everything that you take like this has side effects of some type. ## Hi Eric! I had the same problem with my regular mulitvitamin last year at school. I would take it in the morning before breakfast but it made me VERY nauseous. ALWAYS take the vitaclear with food - a glass of OJ or something with Vitamin C will help, too. It is the zinc that is most likely aggravating your stomach, which is definitely normal. So don't worry, and just try to remember to eat before you take it! ## I researched the vita clear site,they come 4 vita per pa...
