    Default Allergic to vitamins

    So I am allergic to a lot of vitamins and minerals in pill or chewable form. I've been taking twin lab bariatric chewable a which I like but they are causing me to itch (typical reaction for me to vitamins I'm allergic to). Anyone else have this problem? Anyone find a brand of gummy vitamins that work well- so far I haven't had reactions to gummy vitamins & I want to switch over so I can stop itching and getting welts but still be getting the vitamins I need. Thanks!

    Are you allergic to one of the binding ingredients in chewables or pills?
    I haven't had any allergic reactions to vitamins, fortunately. I'm currently taking gummy Vita fusion pre-natal vitams with vit D and folic acid, and Vitafusion gummy calcium and magnesium. I'm not sure if what i'm taking is sufficient nutrient wise until I get my next set of labs in June. Otherwise, these have been okay for me. I'm kind of tired of the gummies though.

    Yes I am allergic to a binding ingredient. I'll try those suggestions. Thanks so much!
