Vegetarian vitamins?!


Question: Vegetarian vitamins!?
Is there any vitamin for a 16 year old vegetarian, which means no gelatin included!? I'm especially looking for vitamin packages with Vitamin A, B6, B12, and some iron and zinc in there as well!. Every time I find one, though, it has gelatin in it!.

Could you show me one either from Costco, Vitamin World, or GNC!?

Answers:
If you eat the right foods, you won't need to take any vitamins!. I am almost 16 too! I learned about foods in a book called "A Teen's Guide to Going Vegetarian"!. There are so many protein, and iron substitutes, as well as many many foods with vitamin A in them!. B vitamins come from animal products, so if you still drink milk (or eat dairy) you'll be just fine! If not, there are many places you can get supplements!. I go to Good Earth (or any other natural food store) because they cater to vegetarian diets, and have huge sections devoted to vitamins, most of which contain no gelatin!. They taste a little bit more icky because there are no gel caps, but if you drink them with juice or something you barely notice it!. also, you could take just a multivitamin, but get one without fish oil,

GNC should carry a vegetarian multi!. Schiff is a brand that I've found pretty widely in regular grocery and drug stores and they have a vegetarian formulation!. also, Whole Foods has several!. If worse comes to worst, you can order any number of brands online!. I order Deva brand vegan multi from Vegan Essentials!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I really like Alive vitamins!. They are made from all fruits and veggies! You can find them in stores now, but the cheapest place that I have found them is www!.iherb!.com!. The great thing about that site is that they send you samples of other things as well!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Theres a brand called NOW which i use, vegetarian formula!. Not sure about the gelatin though!. Look it up online where to buy, i get mine from a local health store!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i am also a vegetarian!. I'm actually 10 years old but i take fish oil gell vitamins ummm it isn't speccally designed for vegatairains but it will help alot!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
