Vitamin and Mineral Supplementation in Thalassemia
SF:
:ty Guys!
I appreciate your comments. I'll try to get some folic acid too. I can't believe I actually liked the folic acid tablets when I was little, in Pakistan. I don't think I'll be able to find the same tablets here, even if I remembered the brand.
I now have Nigella + Honey mix ready. I took a spoonful today! The burning sensation from it was a lot less, but not completely gone. For some reason, I actually had a harder time taking this mix than the whole seeds the last time. I didn't like the texture and smell of this mix.
Best,
SF

SF,
I am very glad to hear that you are taking the supplements. I hope that you will take IP6 as well. This is great!

SF:
Not yet, Sharmin. :(
So far, I'm only on Calcium & Vit D. I just started Nigella to help with Hep C, after reading posts on this forum.
I will, however, try to hunt down some good supplements without the iron. It's hard to get something without Iron and high Vit C. I also look for chewables or liquid. And most of the supplements I've seen usually have gelatin in them.. :(
Best,
SF

I will look send you a list of my son's vitamins including brand names.

Hi SF,
One of our members Tariq asked Puritan's online support that hat kind of gelatin do they use and they told him they use Bovine gelatin.And i asked an alim here if it was ok to use Bovine gelatin in meds they said yes.
You can buy Puritan's products from www.puritansale.com .
