Thank you for the links, I will take a look in a moment.
I just left Walmart and found their B vitamins have a problem. IF you buy the "Natural B" with 250 tablets (Bar Code numbers 0 78742 43575 6) it says 50mg of B1 is 3333% of "Daily Value" (whatever THAT means -- (anything like Minimum Daily Dose Required?) --- anyway, if you pick up the B1 bottle, which I put back after talking to the Pharmacist (and I put back the Vitamin D because my Multi-Vitamin already covers me ... he said) -------- sorry, the B1 bottle says 250mg is 1667% of your % Daily Value. The other bottle says 50mg is 3333% !!! SOMEONE is wrong. This is on their Spring Valley line. Any experts care to comment? The Pharmacist said the 50mg is much more than I need anyway, so I grabbed it. Little does he know how far my mind has slipped the last couple of years. SO -- for a 62 year old male in fair condition, thanks to Prednisone the last few weeks, I am up to 225 pounds.... do we have a "table" somewhere that gives us a list of what we need? Let me restate that. It would be GREAT to have three tables side by side. GOOD BETTER BEST OR a website that tells us anything over 150mg of B1 is harmful to us, or it is passed out of our system through liquid or solid form. Thanks in advance, I know a few people on here would know about these things, but I hate to keep pestering them.....especially with my memory. I have read, read again and even read MRSD's post to me about the vitamins, etc. but I keep forgetting. Frustrating...
