Avatar f tn Caregiver222 is right, it is usually caused by some type of vitamin or mineral deficiency that is why some children eat dirt.
Avatar f tn Couple days age I checked my vitamin-mineral status, just for curiosity sake. I found out that I am low on calcium and omega and everything else including selenium (accept vitamin C and H) is on the border +/-. How is this possible when I eat healthy and I take vitamin/minerals supplements? I even thought I should stop using supplements for a while because i don't want to get overdose. Is it possible that tea can affect vitamin/mineral absorption?
Avatar f tn This is pica. It could be caused by a mineral/vitamin deficiency. Typically, the deficiency is in iron, but it could also be zinc or vitamin B. You need to see a doctor and have him assess you for nutritional deficiencies. In addition, cornstarch can raise glucose levels and precipitate type 2 diabetes, so you really need this checked out and addressed. Often, correcting the deficiency takes care of the problem. If it doesn't, you need to work on this as a type of OCD.

Avatar f tn The doctor has me on prescription Vitamin D and I’m taking shots of Vitamin B12. I was wondering if someone could tell me what the best Multi Vitamin would be. I have herd so many conflicting opinions and would like to make sure that I’m taking the best one. I plan to ask my doctor on my next appointment however its not until the end of February. I appreciate any advice you may be able to offer.
Avatar f tn Just buy a Full Spectrum Multi Mineral Formula. You get the L-Tyrosine at a health food store or vitamin store. Twinlabs makes an L-Tyrosine with the B-6 in it. Saves you from having to take another pill.
