Question 5

does vitamin d make you gain weight or not?

Accepted Answer

No: In fact, vitamin d may help you lose weight. Several studies have shown obese people tend to have lower vitamin d levels than normal weight people. Low vitamin d levels are associated with an increased risk of diabetes, both type 1 and 2. If vitamin d increased weight it is likely due to sensitivity and/or allergy to lanolin, the most common source of vitamin. Then fluid retention could result.

Question 8

i wanted to ask doctors, do capsules with vitamins and minerals make you gain weight? i have anemia and i don't know if i should just eat healthy or take these capsules but i dont wanna gain weight

Weight gain: No, you will not gain weight from vitamins and minerals.  Weight gain comes from foods with calories (carbs, protein, fat).  If you eat more after taking the vitamins, you may gain weight.

Question 9

what vitamin can help to gain weight?

Accepted Answer

None of them: Vitamins don't have but a few calories, so they cannot help a person gain weight (if the person is in normal health already). The children's gummy vitamins have a few more calories. A person should take a regular once-a-day vitamins plus minerals, just to be sure he is not missing any vitamin. His primary care doctor can discuss whether of not he might need extra vitamin d, etc...
