Hi -

I need to take a multivitamin with for vitamin D and calcium. I can only take liquid or chewables. I have tried Centrum Chewables but can't take them anymore because they give me next day gas, bloating etc. Any recommendations for certain brands or formulations?

Thanks!

    I have found I get indigestion from a multi vitamin and mineral tablet. I take vitamin d and b12 sprays without a problem though. Betteryou is the make I use. I don't know about calcium though, phone up your local health food shop and ask what they would recommend. There are certain vitamins and minerals that can affect your bowels so just take the vitamins and minerals you know you need.
