Vitamin Help

Hello Everyone,

I am looking for a good multivitamin for my PANDAS son age 9. Preferably one that has zinc, B6, and Omega 3. Does anyone one have one that they use and love???

We use Super Nu-Thera with 25 mg P-5-P multivitamin and Nordic Naturals ProEPA omega for ds 8.

Kirkman has several good ones. I also like Source naturals Life Force. Both are pricey. So currently, I'm using Full Circle http://www.fullcirclefoods.com/Products/VitaminMineralSupplements.aspx which is carried by my grocery store and alternate between this and Source Naturals every other day. The Source Naturals uses forms of ingredients that are more bioavailable (e.g. methylcobalmin compared to cynocobalmin for B12, P5P form of B6). Great stuff but does look a little funny and has a mild aftertaste. Need a few swigs of OJ to get rid of it.

 

My DS takes an adult multi. Many children's multis aren't different in dosing compared to adult multis. The difference is often only that children's are chewable. Stops being an issue once they can swallow pills.

Here is a good mulivitamin for those that can't take pills, its liquid, also from Kirkman.
