Manal Will be Away for a Bit

<< < (8/9) > >>

Manal:
Thanks Andy for the importat information.

So now i have to choose either to shift to the calcium, magnesium and zinc suplement Of Puritan Pride ( it has 25mg zinc) instead of  using Osteocare

Or i can give the Osteocare in addition to another zinc supplement (if i can find one in the form of the syrup) I will check if this is possible or not

Right now i am correcting the defiency by using the Puritan Pride (zinc 25mg) in addition that Ahmad loves eating meat, so is this enough????????

Andy Battaglia:
Manal,

Since he is occasionally checked for his zinc level, I think you can give him the 25 mg supplement safely, especially since he is testing low. If his levels do rise higher than normal, another dosage adjustment can be made. Some advice for eating meat. Make sure he takes iron inhibitors like tea and dairy products with his meat meals.

Manal:
I will make sure Andy, thanks so much for the advice

I have just noticed that the puritan pride zinc which is 25mg is only found in three pills togather as the serving size is three pills a day and usually i give him one pill only and it is impossible for him to have three cause he can not swallow, he just crush them and the pill does not taste good.

So do you think i should be back to the ostecare with the 10mg in addition to the 7.5mg of zinc found in the yummi bears multivitamin or there is another alternative??? ??? ???

Andy Battaglia:
Manal,

Can he take Osteocare, Yummi Bears and one 10 mg zinc tab daily? That should give him a sufficient quantity of zinc, along with all the other nutrients.
