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. A form of vitamin B12 called Methylcobalamin is the one that's most often prescribed, but some doctors do prefer to give their patients a full b complex vitamin. When it comes to using vitamins, minerals and herbs to treat or prevent some health conditions, the U.S. is kind of lagging behind. Even when a natural remedy is shown to be safe and effective, most doctors turn to prescription medications for everything, in spite of their possible risks and side effects. Now, there can be some side effects associated with herbs, vitamins and minerals, as well, plus some may be contraindicated ...

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. However, some people can be sensitive to it and may experience some bad reactions, which can include: muscle/joint pain, irritability, dizziness, insomnia, heart palpitations, chest pain, excess stomach acid, severe facial flushing and the list actually goes on and on. Vitamin D also has a long half-life, it takes about a month to reach 50% in your body, so if you experience detrimental effects, it can take a long time to get back to normal. ...

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...

dosage, side effects ## Are you referring to the supplement Amino Vital? It is listed as one packet, per serving. It contains 240mgs Vitamin C, 117mgs of Calcium, 38mgs of Magnesium, and 85mgs of Potassium. Along with 2,400mgs of Amino Acids. That said, this is a supplement, not a medication, so the side effects of using it are not studied. Please let me know, however, if this is the correct product.

Cal d3 calcium supplement with vitamin d3 tablets ## Hi, Treasure! Did you have a specific question about this supplement? Both Calcium and D3 are vital to your overall health, but they can also be dangerous if you take too much, so you do have to be careful. There are also certain medical conditions that they may be contraindicated with and certain medications they can affect, so you should always check with your doctor, before taking them. If you don't need, because you aren't deficient then it may not be the right thing for you to take, because the D3 will basically potentate the calcium, which makes it quite easy for you to develop hypercalcemia.

what is it and what are its benefits? ## Hello, Quentin! How are you? It actually hasn't been isolated as a specific substance, it's thought to be a mixture of B10 and B11. It was originally isolated from wine and thought to be a metabolite of Xanthopterin. Very little is known about it, I found this limited information on a holistic health website. Its possibly functions are thought to be cell formation and inhibiting a particular type of anemia. Is there anything else I can help with?

Why is B17 the only vitamin illegal in the United states? ## There are many whole foods that 'naturally' contain Vitamin B17. The link below shows a list of these common food sources: As to why this Vitamin is considered to be illegal in the US, I have no concrete explanation, but can only guess that it has to do with money; the same reasons why medical marijuana is illegal at the federal level; Studies show it's benefits far outweigh its cons when compared to other medications or drugs. But the government doesn't know how to make money off of something that grows naturally around the world. Not to get off topic, but this appears to be the same reason Vitamin B17 is considered illegal even though it's found in abundance in many foods. It has potent anticancer propert...
