Vitamin and Mineral Supplementation in Thalassemia
Andy Battaglia:
The ratio is OK. You an strive for a 2:1 ratio but it doesn't have to be exact.
Waleed:
Pardon me. I am having problem in dividing these 7tabs of supplements plus 3 tabs of kelfer. Set kelfer aside, I have to take these supps together after a meal in breakfast/lunch/dinner once or i can randomly take supps round the clock in divided doses . for e.g. Folic Acid, Calcium, Vit D once after breakfast ... then Vit E, Vit B after lunch ... and last the day with left over fish oil/multivitamin ? Or there has to be some directed approach.
Andy Battaglia:
Find what works for you. You can split them up and take them with meals throughout the day. I generally take after breakfast and dinner, but whatever works for you is the way to do it.
Waleed:
Its now 4th day I am taking those supplements and its gr8.
On breaking fast: Vit B- Complex , Vit E and Multivitamin

Pratik:
Waleed,
"2. Osteocare
2 tablets: Calcium 800mg + Magnesium 300mg + Zinc 10mg + Vit D (D3 200iu) 5ug"
You sure you want to take 1600 calcium and 600 mg Magnesium/daily ? Isn't it high?
And oh, what is Osteocare? Is it some brand name for a tablet? If so let me know so I can purchase it as well. :)
