Try a gummy vitamin or try bellybar chew able. They are a prenatal but have everything you need and really dont make you feel sick. I too get sick from some multivitamins.0

I went to Supplement Superstore and when I was telling the guy that works there about how my daily multivitamin makes me nauseous he told me that I should try buying multi-vitamin capsules not tablets. I told him I take the adult gummies and he said a lot of times the gummies are baked, and they tend to lose some of the nutrients you need because they are baked out.
I also talked to a guy at Vitamin World too, and he asked me what kind of multivitamin I was taking that was making me nauseous. I told him One-A-Day Women's. He said that brand tends to have a lot of iron in the tablets. Which tends to make women more nauseous when taking them.
Although, the Supp. Superstore guy told me the downside to the gummies...I still took them because I have no problem. But since I'm finishing those off, I did end up buying some organic ingredient multivitamins tablets from Vitamin World and I'm going to see how those work out.0 -
Unless you have a medically diagnosed deficiency, taking a multivitamin isn't necessary. You should be able to get enough nutrients from your food.
Not true. Multivitamins are necessary because you can't get all nutrients from your food.
I've never taken multivitamins, and I'm perfectly healthy. Explain that.0 -
This happened to me when I started taking a multivitamin in the morning. I just switched to taking it with lunch or dinner and with plenty of food (like I don't take it until at least half way through my meal). No problems since!0

I had the same problem with that vitamin so I switched to NatureMade for Her. I also take them at lunch time with a meal.0

I had this same problem with the one a day for women. But I switched to a gummy vitamin for adults and I have no more issues. The other stuff made me so sick to my stomach.0

many people are allergic to the binder used in some pills. it's what holds everything together and the first substance to dissolve. Different brands use different material. You may be better off with a gel cap. Those you can even slice open and mix with food.0

When I take vitamins I hafta eat a bigger breakfast or I get sick. A smoothie doesn't cut it for me. I hafta have something way more substantial. Or if your lunch or dinner is bigger try switching the times you take it.0

I had this reaction to a certain brand as well, even when I took it with a large meal. I recently started taking Rainbow Light Women's Just Once multivitamin. I love it!0

If you still feel you need a vitamin or supplement then ask these questions: Does it deliver key antioxidants and other phytonutrients that are absorbed by the body? Does it reduce oxidative stress? Does it support a healthy immune system? Does it help protect DNA? Does it positively impacts several key indicators of cardiovascular wellness? I’ve only found one product that has a check mark on all of the above, backed by 3rd party clinical research studies.
Which vitamin is that?
It isn’t a vitamin it is a whole food with a whole food label on the bottle. It is called Juice Plus+, 26 different fruits, vegetables, berries and grains proven effective through independent clinical research. JP+ also has the NSF label. Pretty easy for JP+ to get the NSF stamp of approval since it is a whole food and nothing else!0 -
I know of 2 people with this problem. My grandmother could not take calcium in any version. They would make her faint.
My husband can't take multi vit. He throws up.0
