Vitamins & Supplements Overview

A vitamin is an organic molecule (or related set of molecules) which is an essential micronutrient—that is, a substance which an organism needs in small quantities for the proper functioning of its metabolism but cannot synthesize, either at all or in sufficient quantities, and therefore must obtain through its diet. The term vitamin does not include the three other essential nutrients: essential mineral (nutrient)s, essential fatty acids, and essential amino acids.[2] S...

clear capsule with pink white n black beads

I found a clear capsule with pink,whit,n black beads with no markings or #s.. ## Hello Mel, I've seen a lot of questions regarding clear capsules with colored beads in them and from what other users find is most of the time it's a vitamin/supplement manufactured by performix. I have also heard of prescription medicines from outside the U.S that have similar descriptions but without having an imprint there really is no way for anyone to tell if it is or isn't a medication.

Yellow round pill no markings

No markings on the pill ## round yellow smooth ,no markings , on the packet has writing but i can only identify yl on the end of the word. ## Hello, Likely what you've found is an over the counter medicine or some kind of vitamin/supplement/dietary pill as the FDA requires that all controlled medicine be identifiable through it's physical appearance to include an imprint. Since there is a vast market of possible products out there that match this description I can't really give you an answer as to what it could be and anyone who does is guessing at best. Sorry that I can't identify the pill but at least you know the product is not a controlled substance and therefore illegal for you to have if it isn't prescribed to you. I hope this helps. Have a wonderful day.

I need to know if it's true that it helps offset the loss of hair some people experience(1/3 of hair some need wigs) and what are the dosages 10,000 mcs or mls plus Vit B complex and what vitamins/mineral supple ments? ## Biotin may help, but the only way to find out is for you to try it. However, you should always check with your doctor to make sure that it's safe for you to do so. You shouldn't exceed the dosage suggested by your doctor or on the product packaging. There is no proven supplement protocol that I can give you, I'm sorry, I wish there were.

Does anyone else have any suggestions to add? ## I believe that while you are...
