Centrum Question?!


Question: I am 15...is it unhealthy to take Centrum multivitamins? The bottle says take it if you're an adult and it is not formulated for childrens use. I am not in either of these catagories...

Also, when is the best time to take it? Does it matter if you take it in the morning, middle of the day, or night?

I think at 15 you might medically be a child (definitely not an adult so you would be in the children's category).

You need to discuss vitamins with your doctor, some will stay in your body and you could build up an overdose on them. Since you're smaller than an adult, you definitely would not be taking the full amount.

As to when... I really don't know. That's an interesting question.

I have a 13 yr old son who the doctor told me could take men's vitamins - he suggested GNC Megamen Sports since he's active in sports. The reason he said it's ok for him is because of his height and weight. He's the size of a small man.

Follow the directions about when to take them. GNC says to take it twice per day - morning and night.

From what I heard Centrum does not dissolve properly and is a waste of money.
If you have a Centrum vitamin put it in a glass of vinegar if it isn't starting to dissolve within a few minutes it isn't going to do you much good.

Type brands of multivitamins for teen boys in the search engine and you should be able to come up with something.
