I take the Centrum chewable too, and I found coupons for the Centrum in the Sunday paper and there is also one in the box. They are orange flavored and don't taste too bad.

I agree with the viactiv. It is like having a little treat. I also take vitamin B-12 (sublingual).

I take Bariatric Advantage chewable multi-vitamins and calcium. My program's nutritionist doesn't recommend Flintstone's because they don't contain enough trace minerals for adults. But the Bariatric Advantage doesn't taste bad; they come in flavors like watermelon, lemon creme, wild cherry, and chocolate

I couldn't stand taking the chewables because they were so chalky and sweet tasting and strong. So, I did some research on liquid Vitamins (which I was afraid I was going to regret because some of them are so nasty tasting). But I discovered some interesting facts about liquid vitamins and their potency in your bloodstream.

I started taking a liquid Vitamin that even my husband takes and loves! I think mainly he loves it because not only does he feel great on it, but the San Diego Chargers' trainer has a lot of the football players taking it and DH is a HUGE Chargers fan.

Anyways, the vitamin is called Passion 4 Life liquid vitamins and I love that it not only takes care of your multi-vitamin for the day, but it also takes care of your minerals, anti-oxidants, and other health goodies (like CoQ10) in one shot (one ounce) per day. This stuff is off the charts in what it contains . . . but I know if I tried to get all of this stuff in separately, I'd be taking at least 10 pills. Very cool.

Am I the only one who isn't using a chewable vitamin? My doctor said as soon as I was able to, that I could use my regular vitamins that I swallow. I take a regular multivitamin at night and 1 citracal. And I take another citracal in the morning. I have no problem swallowing either of them. Although I do take them separately, not together. So for anyone who doesn't like chewables, ask your doctor. They may be okay with you taking a regular vitamin as well. :thumbdown:

Shame I can't get The chocolate vitamins here in Australia. They seem just the treat I could handle. Looks like I will have to stick to the Berocca, dont know if they are available in USA.
