Multivitamin supplements

2025-05-31 08:50:16
Is it okay to take multivitamin supplements without prescription? For example, I was thinking of taking Zincovit multivitamin tablets for women. How long should I use it and should I have it daily? Do I have to supplement it with omega 3 supplements or iron folic tablets? Is there any negative effects to it?

Yes, you can take Zincovit without a prescription. Multivitamins are a combination of essential vitamins and minerals that help support your overall health and improve your immunity. Supplements should be added to fill the gap in the diet, not to replace any food. -They are especially useful when your daily diet lacks a variety of foods, especially fruits and vegetables, and you are unable to meet your nutrient needs due to a busy lifestyle, low appetite, or dietary restrictions.  -If you are eating a balanced diet with fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, proteins, and healthy fats, your body may already be getting what it needs. Taking unnecessary supplements can do more harm than good in the long run.  -But if you are taking supplements, take them for 3 months and then see how you are feeling. Iron supplements will depend on your iron levels. It is also advisable to take tests before taking any supplement. If you are vegetarian and feel that you need to take omega supplements, then start with having walnuts and flaxseeds as they are rich sources of omega 3.

Hi You don’t need supplements, if you don’t have deficiencies. Always do a blood test and check with doctor. Never take iron supplements without having anemia. Similarly for folic acid, unless you are deficient or planning to conceive you don’t need it. I write about different supplements in my blog regularly. Please take a look. https://www.pragmaticnutritionist.com/blog

I think if not needed, then please don't take. And get it prescribed by a professional Physician/ Doctor Anything less or more in the body is harmful.
Next Steps
Do your blood tests, show to a good Doctor, then take any supplements.

A Nutritionist can also guide better in case of supplementary nutrition
