Question: Help me pleaseee! (: ill give 10 points?
okay. so i took some vitamins.
i think they are the vitality ones from Melaluca.
they have some for kids.
like littttttleeee kidds.
yet the ones i took say
"must be 18 years or older"
but then they also say for people over the age of 10 need to consult a physician beforehand.
now, i am 13. i took them.
i didnt consult anyone. and my mom knows ive been taking them.
nothing bad happened to me.
but does anyone know if i should stop taking them?

Answers:

You're fine. They probably just mean the vitamins would be more beneficiary to someone over 18, or the concern is more of a weight issue (if a medicine is too high of a dosage for someone's weight, it can cause problems).

If you want full benefits from vitamins, you should take some aimed at teens. "One a day" has some specifically for the needs of teenage girls.



the only real problem with you taking adult vitamins providing they don't have caffeine or anything is that you might get too much of certain vitamins, childrens typically have lower doses of things like iron. Too much of certain vitamins can lead to digestive problems like constipation and much worse things. That is why it cays to consult a physician before you should take them. I would suggest stop taking them because it could lead to issues down the road.



if you have yours moms permission and they're not harming you in any way then its fine.just don't take the recommended dose.



its fine if ur mom says its ok its ok also ask ur docter just in case
