Yeah there was a thread on it, and apparently, most vitamins have gelatin in them that is pork-derived. I think they use it to make the capsule, or to keep the vitamins together (for multivitamins). Centrum was really great. 1-a-day has the same problem. They use porcine gelatin.
I tried looking up kosher vitamins and vegan vitamins but the brands I get are not available here, and they are heavily overpriced (because they know vegetarians, vegans, and others with dietary restrictions are going to buy it anyway).
Re: Vitamins
that’s horrible, har cheez main gand ghol dete hain. would you happen to know the names of those vitamins that you tried looking around your place? i might try to find some also. and yea i know what you mean, i take osteo bi-flex also (i hope that’s not haram either) but that one is expensive also

Re: Vitamins

Re: Vitamins
I'm still looking for some economic mainstream brand that is kosher/halaal. I don't think there are any. You'd have to pay a whole lot of extra money to get the Vegan or Kosher ones.
Re: Vitamins
syapa :(
Re: Vitamins
If they are being used for medical purposes, and there is no alternative available (or too costly for u), then they aren't considered Haraam.
Re: Vitamins

Re: Vitamins
No. I am sorry, but I do not trust vitamins made by some muslim company. Even though I know lots of professional muslims, there are way too many lazy bum muslims out there.
