light-headed when taking vitamins
Posted: 06-28-08 06:40am

Hello everyone,

I really want to take vitamins as I'm sure I would benefit from it. However, I always feel light-headed when I take them. I thought it was because I was taking GNC vitamins (which contain much more than the recommended amount of vitamins), but right now I'm just taking a generic Kirkland Signature vitamin and I still feel light-headed.

I was hoping to find out if someone else can relate to this. Would taking liquid vitamins be a better solution?

Thanks!!

If you eat healthy and not practicing any diet I don't see any reason why you should take vitamin supplements.

Light-headed feeling after taking them is a reason more to reconsider your decision to take vitamin supplements.

If taking vitamins really is making me light-headed, shouldn't it go away once I stop taking the vitamins? It seems as though, even when I stop taking them, I still get light-headed (which makes me wonder if it's not the vitamins at all). Is it possible to still have these symptoms even after I stop taking the vitamins?

well obviously its not the vitamins and taking a vitamin is simply not enough especiallly if its a kirkland brand, those are man made vitamins theyre not derived from living foods so your body dosent absorb them properly also on those kinds of vitamins they could be coverd with somthing to make it slippery that u could be allergic to, i suggest to go to a health food store and theyre will be specific herbs or vitamins that stop dizziness and try it for a week but go to the doctors u could have an ear infection or really bad sinus blockage and not even know it, well good luck and if it still dosent go away do some research on google lol

Vitamins should not cause light-headeness. It is possible that not vitamin-suplements but something else causes your symptoms.

You can consult your primary health provider about this.
