due to the intake of more junk food or wrong food and sometimes eating at odd times vitamins have become a part of our life. Vitamins comes in various forms and dosages from different brands. Taking a vitamin pill or tablet with some water may be easy but some times the pill leaves a unpleasant odour and you keep getting the vitamin erutations. I used to take becadexamin multivitamin but it is a bit unpleasant. So I have shifted to liquid vitamin tonics. They are sweet in taste and no eructations afterwards. Morever showing and taking the liquid vitamin in spoon to my three year old son helps me in giving him his tonics with ease. So experiencing the double benefit. do you too prefer taking vitamins in liquid form?

Vitamins are vital for our life along with other elemnets like, carbohydrates, fats, minerals, protins & water. Only vitamins doesn't solve the purpose. Secondly repeated usage of vitamins ( without doctors advice may lead for further helath comlications). However, the Vitamic & vitamin -B Complex may not cause any probelms comparing other ones (Vitamin A,D,E & K) due the water souuable property. regarding the tablets & tonic form, it is better to go for the tablet form evethough it smell is bad. As regards the tonic, further some addtives & alocohalics & presservatives and sweetners are used in the tonic comparing to the tablets. Thouse having digestive probelms & prone to ovimting may be presicrbed in tonic form. Thank you frineds.

Any tablet or liquid vitamin or medication should be taken with food to be on the safer side.

Honestly, I would prefer a vitamins in liquid form. I think it's easy to shallow and there's no need to me to be afraid that it might get stuck to my throat. I really have a hard time in taking tablets so the liquid form would benefit for me.

Always for an adult tablets are better, if it is hard to swallow break into pieces and swallow with juice or milk you like.

It depends on the type of vitamins and its form of availability. For me either liquid or tablet/softgel as long as it's vitamin I'll take it.

There is nothing more than natural vitamins which you get in diary products, cereals and grains, fruits and vegetables. Since our life is very busy we should plan well and eat regular fruits and vege.... instead of artificial vitamins that we get at stores. An individual say I eat more junk so I take vitamin supplements that is totally wrong abusing oneself, instead you say I eat regular meals and I am using vitamins that would make sense. Tablets are better than liquid in case of grownups and this can be explained to your son. As parents we should be a good example for our children.
