Denis,
Sensitivity to something in your multivitamin doesn&#039;t seem outside the realm of possibility. Most of these nutrients can be obtained in ways other than through supplements. If you click on the link to more information at the end of each nutrient&#039;s section, you&#039;ll be taken to a page that provides alternative ways for obtaining the nutrients.
Good luck!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi. I have been vegetarian (though almost vegan and only almost vegan for reasons mostly outside of my control) since the begining of 2024. I was taking supliments for like 5 months every morning but the habit slowly faded and I realised I actually feel a bit better not taking supliments and now I am very certain that somehow, for some reason, my multivitamin makes it easier for me to catch a headache, like for example if I lean my head on a wall without a pillow, that could be enough to cause a headache if I do it for long enough (which would probobly be 10 minutes or less) and I also noticed that I haven&#039;t been sick as often and I don&#039;t get a sore throat nearly as often (which is almost always my first symptom of what develops into a cold). Could this be due to me getting too much of a certain mineral or vitamin or could it be something else? I&#039;ve felt in tip-top shape since I stopped taking supliments but I worry that I am or will be deffecient in vitamin B12 or some other vitamins or minerals. I know that as a vegan, I must supplement, but what is the matter if they are making me sick?]]></description>

Dylan,
I don&#039;t recall my exact thought process at the time, but in retrospect, I don&#039;t think there&#039;s any problem with including iron and it might slightly benefit some people. One exception would be for people with hemachromatosis, but they already know to avoid supplements with iron.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Is there a reason why for your US multivitamin recommendation, you linked to the version of the DEVA Tiny Tablets with iron included instead of the iron-free version?]]></description>

Noam,
Multivitamins don&#039;t contain enough calcium to make them a good source. The volume of calcium would be too much to fit in one tablet with the rest of the nutrients. So you need to get calcium from a different source as I describe above. Most multis have vitamin A, including the ones I recommend below.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hey so you list some multivitamins in the end and I was really excited about that until I realized you didn&#039;t include calcium in your list. Can you perhaps edit the article to include some supplements which deviate a little from your listed recommended multivitamin nutrients. I&#039;ve been looking for a supplement with the exact things you listed, except I need calcium and preferably vitamin A as well (preferably in the form of beta-carotene).]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[So i previously commented about this, but the comment is gone now it seems... anyway, shortly after going vegan i had skin rashes, acne and so on. I figure its related to a multi i was using having 25ug of B12 and 30 mg of niacin - ive read both can cause skin breakouts? I later switched to a multi with 15ug of b12 (which i was taking near daily, sometimes i would forget) and this seemed to help but not eliminate the issue. should i try an even lower amount of b12 supplementation or b12 injections?]]></description>

The amount of calcium in a multivitamin isn&#039;t anything to worry about with regard to iron. A multivitamin shouldn&#039;t be relied on for iron. The most important thing for increasing iron absorption is to add vitamin C (mentioned above in this article) and avoid tea and coffee at meals. If you have diagnosed iron deficiency then you should probably be taking an iron supplement under the guidance of a physician.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi. I live in eastern europe and have so far been using a multivitamin, that does meet your reccommendations. But it does also have iron, calcium and zinc, much like your recommended DEVA multis. I have heard that consuming iron and calcium at once may not be ideal and may inhibit absorption of both. Is this true (it seemed to me like research about this was quite lacking) and it is a concern? i really cant afford buying supplements seperately. Thanks.]]></description>
