Hi . I bought pure encapsulations selenmethionin tablets . They smell veey strongly. Like a vitamin b tablet smell . I ask because my stool has turned yellow and lately grey beige .And I wonder if down to the selenium .And if the capsules have been mixed up in the factory .

Just a thought

Advice anyone .

I take folate from Pure Encapsulations. I'd call them. See what they say. Better safe than sorry. I also take selenium but by Now Co. Never have had a gray beige color urine though. But yours is a combo supplement too.

Still, I'd give them a ring....

Hi just to let you know I rang pure encapsulations but only in America so hung up after few minutes waiting in a queue .I emailed instead and they didn't really have much to say . The side effect was not known to them .good news is I stopped them anyway and the pale stool that I was passing immediately after eating with urgency .it has stopped .I still have tan coloured stool most of the time . But think that may be due to no dairy , no sugar new diet .Thank you for your help and all good wishes to you

Hi,

That's a bit upsetting. I was hoping they would be more helpful for you.

I buy some of their supplements. They should at least take them back and refund your money.

Ooo yes that would be nice .But that is like accepting liability I guess .But perhaps not as cosmetic companies give you money back sometimes if a product doesn't suit etc .cost me a lot as you know .

Didn't buy direct from them as they are in America. So I may approach the company I bought them from instead if I can find receipt .

Thanx for the idea .will let u know if any joy .

OK. 👍

Out here (U. S.) if something is questionable with a purchase, especially with supplements, they have you return the item and they either give you your money back or send you another.

Hope you get it resolved soon. Takecare.

If you think they're causing the jaundice, toss them!
