why am I constantly bloated? I am so full of gas?
I wasnt always like this.
the only new things in my life that might have caused this is:
-16 hour flight (that was a week ago and i suffer no jet lag now)
- Stress Vitamin B Complex pills that consist of 400mg Folic Acid, 100mg Niacin, 12 mcg Vitamin B6, 12 mcg Vitamin B12, Thiamin 10mg, Riboflavin 10mg, and other trivial amount of nutrients..
- Collagen pills
I rarely overeat yet I always feel full!! my stomach is enlarged due to gas and thats on empty stomach why?
Is it okay to take prenatal vitamins on a regular basis?
My husband and I dont plan on having a child for another 4 or 5 years (hopefully). I started taking them about 6 months ago but not regularly. Is there too many nutrients and vitamins in them for someone not intending on having a child soon? Or should I just stick to regular womens vitamins?
Is it possible to be allergic to Multi-Vitamins?
So, back a few years ago, my parents started taking those Kirkland (from Costco) multi-vitamins. I decided one day that i would take them. I took them on a full stomach, because it says to take them with or right after a meal. Suddenly, 30 mins later, i was running to the bathroom to throw up.
I am now 27. I thought that maybe i did something wrong and want to make sure i was getting all my nutrients so i decided to buy some multi-vitamins and take them. I did just as the bottle said and ONCE again, (BLAH!) i threw up about four times.
Could i possibly be allergic or something in multi-vitamins?
Thanks in advance!

A bunch of workout/weight loss questions. Please help!?
Alright. I'm going to ask multiple questions so whenanswerwing me I guess just make sure to identify which question you are answering. If you can only answer one than still, go ahead. please contribute. And I would appreciate it if you would stay away from really obvious answers unless the question calls for one.
To start off, here is some information. I'm 15, turn 16 in June. I'm about 5"7' or 5"8' ish. I weigh about 153 pounds. I don't exactly eat the best but I'm trying to change that. And I'm on Adderall so I don't exactly eat much anyway though.
Now I am going to give some more information and ask a question at the same time
1)Do I work out too much? I tend to work out about a couple hours a day... I usually spend most of the time on an eliptical and I will divide that up with like, sit-ups, push-ups, and some other things like planks and supermans.. I do this everyday.. is that too much? will working out this much have any negative effects what-so-ever? I actualls prefer to work out this much. I';d like to work out more but I dont wanna push it. Like I feel bad about not working out and please don't try to change that about me. I just wanna know howe much is too much. am I doing too much?
2)How long will it take for a loss or gain in weight to show on the scale. Like if I eat a bag of chips and weigh myself right after, will I be seeing the effect the chips had? and if I jog on the treadmill for an hour and then come weigh myself, will I be seeing the effect that the treadmill had? Or when I weigh myself will I be seeing the results of what I did a few days ago. how does that work
3)What are some really good vitamins/nutrients that I should be tring to get? I'm mainly trying to lose stomach fat and get a six pack and I wanna know what should i make sure I get in my diet for the best effects. like is there a certain thing that will help me out big time? I want to lsoe weight and get abs. so yeah. what should I try and get in my food?
4)The workout routine that I mentioned in number 1, is that enough to get abs? pretty much just sit ups? I have an ab roller and I try to use that occasionally. but are sit ups alone enough? :-P
5)Like I said, I want to get a six pack and lose stomach fat and these damn love handles. hahaha. Whats the best kind of workout to do for that? What is the best way to lsoe stomach fat and to get a six-pack. Especially that six-pack part. I want to get results quick to. dont try and tell me a method jsut because the method is easy. I'm willing to do the difficult. I really want thi six-pack and I'll do whatever it takes to see results the fastest. but please dont be telling me to go out and buy certain equipment or DVDs or go telling me to buy some shit online please. What is the absoluite best weigh to get a six-pack and about how long do you think it might take? I just wanan get any abs really. anything is a start. even a 2-pack :-P so yeah. best way to get abs and lose stomach fat. and is there something big that I want to avoid doing? like a huge mistake I could make that could hinder my results??
6)I know that you obvously need to lose the fat on top of abs for them to show, but I've heard people say that you should lose the stomach fatr then take care of the abs. is that true? Should I get rid of the fat, then work on the abs? or can I work on both on the same time. that way once the fat is gone the abs might already be there. or is that even possible? I have a profound misunderstanding for the human body so sorry haha.
7)What do you think is the biggest I could be but still have abs show up, preferably without flexing? my goal of getting a six-pack, is to have that six-pack be there at all times. I dont wanna have to flex for it to show because then I will be like, trying to show off or something :-P Like what is the largest waist measurement/weight/hip size or whatever that I could have a six-pack still show without flexing?
8)I don't think I get nearly enough protein. What is a good way to get more protein in my diet. apparantly like fish and red meat or whatever is a good way but like is there and supplement or anything? any way I can just literally add protein to other things? and if not then what IS the best way to get more in my diet. Could I just eat more in order to get enough protein? like id take in lots of calories/fat but then I could maybe just workout extra to burn that off? Idk. that doesnt sound to healthy
Thank you so much in advanced for reading this and for any help you may give me. as you can probably tell, I really want this six-pack. im willind to do whatever it takes. I trust you guys here and Itrust that you can really help me :)
Also, if you have any tips or words of encouragement in general, then feel free to share.

Vitamins make my stomach sick?
I'm 22 years old. Ever since I graduated from flinstone chewables, my stomach has always been sick from vitamins! No matter what brand of multi vitamin I buy, or what 'special type' (For women, etc..)... it always upsets my stomach.
I've tried taking the vitamin in the morning after a meal (becuase I know some vitamins need water to break down and others need fat)...I've tried taking them before the meal, I've tried this at lunch time and as well as at dinner time... No matter when I take it - what time of day or before/after a meal...it makes my stomach sick.
I have younger siblings (7, 8, and 9 years old) and last year for christmas I put Scooby Doo gummy vitamins in their stockings... I also bought a bottle for myself(forgot what brand, a popular multi vitamin brand)... These vitamins do NOT hurt my stomach at all! I can take them at any time of day and I'm completely fine.
It says for children over 12&adults chew 2 gummies a day.
Do you think that I'm still getting nutrients from these gummies? Or am i wasting my money?
***ALSO, calcium especially makes my stomach sick. All calcium supplements that I've tried. If I'm drinking and eating food with fortified calcium, am I okay in that department? I do not like milk but I buy calcium fortified orange juice and bread and pasta, and I eat yogurt almost every day. Do I need an additional suppliment?
what are some effects of not taking vitamins supplements at all?
My daughter is 13 years old, and she won't take any vitamin supplements at all. She mainly eats junk food, and I'm urging her to take the supplements to get the nutrients that a teen needs.
How can I make her take the vitamins, and what are the effects of a teen not taking vitamin supplements ?
What vitamins and minerals for a healthy life?
I excercise and study very hard. I dont get to have a healthy meal so I guess im lacking some important nutrients in my diet. However, Im taking in a lot of protein.
I hope to get some tablets from the pharmacy.
What vitamins, minerals, calcium, iron, etc will I need?
(for example, will i need a lot of Vit B complex?)
Which is the Best Shampoo to Use?
What shampoo is the best to use for my type of hair (I have African American hair, kinda like Bob Marley, it's black, curley, kinky and nappy) it's not dreaded up but it's locking up itself, right now it's a nappy fro, because I don't pick it nor comb it.
I just want to leave it the way it is, but it is so thick and strong, what shampoo will best clean it and style it.
Should I use Head & Shoulders (They say it removes dandruff but doesn't all shampoos do that if used daily)
how bout herbal essences i am curious cuz i like their design and it smells awesome
and tresemme they say it's used by professionals but does that mean it's good, i used it before and it made my hair look pretty nice, but is their anything better
what's all of this i hear about shampoo with vitamins and nutrients and junk, and what about the shampoo's that say moisture rich or anti breakage, what's all that about
and i don't want to use a shampoo that will make my hair look and smell great but in the end i start to go bald,
what shampoo with keep my hair soft, clean, smelling great, clean, stylish (make my hair look moisture instead of dry) clean and healthy
WHAT IS THE BEST SHAMPOO TO USE
oh and oh yeah maybe i need to wash it a certain way, how often should i shampoo my hair, and someone explain all of that rinse, repeat stuff
