You may be allergic to something in Centrum. Or your body may have a hard time absorbing something in the vitamin. I would switch to a liquid vitamin and a different brand, this way you can see if its something in the vitamin, or is it absorption.

Liquid vitamins

Hardly does a day pass without the liquid vitamins viruses pills debate goes on.The important overall issue is getting good nutrition through food supplements.Balance dictates that you should include minerals and many other resources as well.

Fortunately we can find good products wholesale at the simple click of the mouse and have those liquid vitamins delivered to your front door.

In fact, you probably want to combine a couple of chosen products of vitamins and minerals thus combining them for a multiple approach. It appears that this approach may very well yield cost savings, improve the overall quality and thoroughness of your supplementation as well.

Not to forget that taking liquid products may very well be a more encouraging and pleasant experience for you.

You'd probably agree with us that millions of folks here in the good ole' USA understand the need for dietary supplemental help - and we're spending billions of dollars on supplements.

Unfortunately, as stated in the 1996 Physician’s Desk Reference (page 1542), the body only absorbs 10 to 20 percent of the nutrients found in traditional pills and capsules.

That 10-20% goes even lower as we age (especially we seniors darn it - :-)) as we have a heck of a lot less stomach acid required to break down these pills and capsules.

Here's a very interesting thought that occurred to me a few years ago that may interest you as well.

After snooping around a little we also learned that four to five crop rotations were planted each year on a single plot of land, intense farming practices have depleted vital nutrients from the soil.

99% of us are deficient in minerals...The alarming fact is that foods, fruits, vegetables, and grains now being raised on millions of acres of land no longer contain enough certain needed minerals and are starving us, no matter how much of them we eat.

These deficiencies are showing up in our bodies. You'll find some of the common deficiencies at our site if interested. Remember to be certain to take your liquid vitamins daily and combine them if possible with other nutrients.

Answer 4

Vitamins do not cause pimples, it is hormones that cause pimples and contrary to popular belief chocolate and caffeine do not cause pimples either.

Answer 5

well, Multivitamins of chemical origin, (manufactured and not natural) have some problems with specific individuals such as allergic manifestations to one or more vitamin or even be allergic to some substituents of the tablet itself.
I recomend as a pharmacist to take tablets of specific vitamins such as B complex and notice what is going to be, and eat fresh vegetables and fruits to get the natural ones. Good luck.

hmm nah id say not really thats more myth then actual reality creatine an whey protein dont affect hormones.. to affect hormones they only things that would do that are HG ( human growth hormone) an steroids but supplments like whey protein an creatine but still use them in moderation... creatine should only be 9-10 weeks on.. then 5 weeks off
