Multivitamins containing vitamins A, C, D, E, and B-complex, along with minerals such as zinc and magnesium, are suitable for general use. They are generally safe, but taking excessive amounts may cause side effects such as nausea, stomach upset, or headaches. Always follow the recommended dose on the label.

I have been experiencing persistent heel pain for five months, worst in the mornings. I underwent a subtotal hysterectomy three years ago and have bone degeneration. I am taking calcium supplements as prescribed. What treatment could help?

Your persistent morning heel pain may be due to plantar fasciitis (inflammation of the tissue connecting the heel bone to the toes) or a symptom of bone degeneration. Calf stretching exercises, proper footwear with heel support, physiotherapy, and anti-inflammatory medications may help. Please consult your doctor or an orthopaedic specialist for further advice and treatment.

My recent blood test shows that my vitamin B12 and vitamin D levels are low. What should I do to improve them?

You should take vitamin B12 and vitamin D supplements as recommended by your doctor. Include foods rich in vitamin B12, such as eggs, dairy, and fortified cereals. For vitamin D, get moderate sunlight exposure for 10-15 minutes daily and eat foods such as fatty fish, fortified milk, and egg yolks. Regular follow-up blood tests are advised to monitor your levels and adjust supplementation if needed.
