A member asked:

Everytime i take my multivitamin it makes me feel sick. it's a whole food vitmain so i don't understand. could it possibly be iron?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Multivitamin: Try taking it with food in your stomach or try another brand. As a young menstruating woman, a multivitamin containing iron is desirable because of monthly blood loss.
