Try Ovaltine for vitamin A

I may be wrong (and someone please correct me if I am -- I don't want to mislead anyone!) but if it's the vitamin A in V-8 Splash that's good for CM, then try a glass of Ovaltine. Made according to the directions on the jar, you can get 63% of your daily recommended intake.
As I said, I don't know if it's something else in V-8 Splash that thins CM, but if it's just vitamin A, Ovaltine actually has more per serving than the V-8 drink.
And no, I don't work for Ovaltine (LOL!) but I drink it every morning for breakfast (it's got other vitamins and minerals so it feels like an okay meal supplement when I'm in a rush) and I noticed it was high in vitamin A.
Just a thought!

Marcia, as far as I know it's always better to get your vitamins through food. It's my understanding that your body absorbs "natural" vitamins better than it does supplements. Supplements are really just a precaution in case you don't get enough in your diet. If you can do it by eating or drinking the right kinds of foods that's always preferable.
Anyway, happy Ovaltine drinking!
