I have G6PD and i suffer from fatigue and i frequently go to gym. What supplement i can take to support me against such fatigue and boost my exercise without harming my G6PD

Hello;

Thanks for your query.

I think it would be safe for you to take a multi vitamin supplement with vitamin E. Some studies suggest that increased levels of Vitamin are actually helpful in patients with G6PD. A multi vitamin supplement will not exacerbate your G6PD.

I hope this has answered your questions. Please le me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

Hi,

Vitamin C and Vitamin K in the amount contained in a multi vitamin is not going to be harmful.
