zinc plays an important role in insulin biosynthesis. Hence Zevit may be useful in patient of diabetes mellitus, apart from nutritional supplements of multiple vitamins.
Zevit can be taken regularly but not for an indefinite period ,if your diet is a balanced one and provides you sufficient nutrition,as excess of vitamins and minerals can give rise to hypervitaminosis/ toxicity.
