Chewable Vitamins

deelyteful · 06-28-2005, 06:11 AM

Does anyone take the chewable vitamins. I despise taking this huge horse pill that is not soft coated or easy to swallow, however, I peeked at Viactiv I think it was and there were 4 grams of carbs p/ vitamin!! Just wondering what others too. I thought I read that somone in here was taking the chewable and I can't find it now.
Thanks

Centrum makes a chewable adult vitamin that's pretty packed with what you need

Steer clear of the new "soft chews" that are like candy. I haven't seen any that are under 4g carbs each, and some require you to take 2-3 a day.
Centrum is less than 1g per chewable(1x a day)so it's acceptable.

Do you know of low-carb chewable vitamin without iron that is not berry flavored? Centrum Silver has 2 grams of carbs but comes in what is called a citrus-berry flavor. It tastes too much like raspberries which I find awful. Is there a low-carb, iron-free chewable in a citrus flavor on the market? Os-Cal makes a lemon flavored calcium chewable with 0 carbs, but it is hard to find.

I take Adult Chewable by Nature's Plus. It has high B vitamins in it. I use to suffer from a lot of UTI's but since I take these I haven't had a problem with them. It has two carbs per vitamin but if it keeps my bladder happy then I am okay with that. Here are the supplement facts.
