Great if your child is allergic to dairy – My 3 yo son needs to take two of these a day to keep up with the RDI. He likes the taste of the liquid inside the capsule. So I just squeeze the… Read more
liquid into his mouth and he'll be happy chappy. These are quite pricy given you only get 50 capsules and taking it twice a day, so it lasts barely a month. So I try to buy and stock up when they're on special. There is a limited range of calcium supplements for children. But I think these have the highest amount of calcium in them compared to what's available. Taste of the liquid Expensive

Good – Generally speaking Blackmores is a famous brand for its good quality. This cod liver oil is a good healthy supplment with a reasonable price. It is… Read more
usualy easy available in most of the supermarket and chemist. I've taken it daily for a long term as I heard of that taking this is good for improving eye sight. I end up benefit from it more than I originally expected for a better calcium absorbtion and health immune system. Cod liver oil is a good resource of Vitamins A and D and omega-3 acids. This Blackmores Cod liver oil has a good quality price ratio. There is nothing I can think of.

Blackmores Mega B Complex
Be careful about B6 toxicity and muscle twitches (fasciculations) etc – I take a full supplement regime to do a number of things, including not being malnourished while dieting. And also sleep. Hence the B Complex - a way… Read more
to get adequate vitamin B levels, including B6, which I was taking as it is supposed to assist with getting to sleep. I was taking B6 on its own in addition to this, and then just took the Mega B Complex.
I didn't realize that the RDA is 1.7mg and the amount typically provided in these is around 50mg. In B6 specifically, and in the B Complex. So it's more than 10x the recommended dose.
I noted that I was gradually getting increased twitches in my triceps and sometimes pectoral muscles. To the point where it was keeping me awake at night. I went to the doctor about it. It was only using an AI chatbot that I was able to diagnose the problem. Evidently the B6 can be excessive in amounts greater than 1g per day, and likely lower than that. A maximum of 12mg per day is allowed in the EU.

Symptoms over B6 toxicity generally resolve over time, but in some cases there can be permanent problems.
I stopped the supplementation of this about a month ago and gradually the fasciculations (involuntary twitching) in my triceps has ceased completely.
While I am writing this vs a Blackmores product, B6 is in a lot of products, including for sleep, and it is something that for susceptible people is a problem.
Some people are able to take less than 1000mg with no problems, but some (perhaps with the MTHR gene) are not able to. Perhaps for many people this product is ok, but not for me. That's why I've given it 3 stars - for me it is 1 star, but it likely has the correct dosages on the label, just that people should be careful about consuming, and it won't be immediate, it likely takes some time to accumulate toxic effects.
Ok, I've done my bit of public service on the subject of Vitamin B6 toxicity.
Yuk! – Omega 3 is a very important, however if you want kids, or anyone for that matter, to eat them you need to make them palatable. I am 44 years of age… Read more
and try to follow a paleolithic diet, with a lot of fish farm and Asian fish stocks hitting our shores full of heavy metals and God knowswhat else it is important to source out good fish or suplement your diet with Omega 3. There are plenty of other good Omega 3 suplements out there that you can get down. Cenovis is a good company, however it needs to address this issue with this one product.
The Smell and Taste.

PharmACare, the producer of this product, has confessed that the product contains a colouring called Carmoisine. The chemical is not disclosed in the product ingredient list and there is no warning sign on the product’s packaging.
Researchers have proven the side effects of long-term consumption of Carmoisine, and many countries such as the US, Canada does not allow companies using carmoisine in food. PharmACare, a well-known local company that owns brands including Nature’s Way, quality health, NutriSlim, uses this dangerous chemical in a baby vitamin supplement!
The company offered me a product exchange option and said that it would conduct a product review. However, it refused to recall the product or apologise publicly.
We shall not allow such negligence and irresponsibility! A company called PharmACare does not really care about it's customers and its product quality.
