Dear friend,

Thanks for posting your query on this website. I fully appreciate your concerns.

Since you are 60+ years old, Vitamin D in recommended dose should be taken regularly. Consult your doctor and discuss the matter. He knows which tests are required to exclude/confirm Vitamin D deficiency and osteoporosis.

The essential minerals required for good health are Calcium, Zinc, Magnesium, Selenium and Chromium. These minerals are usually present in recommended doses in all Multi-Vitamin + mineral tablets. You may continue with Multi-Vitamin/multi-mineral tablets on daily basis.

I am sure that you will benefit from the advice.

Have a speedy recovery and a good health.

Fond Regards,

Dr.(Col) R Karanwal
