I'm thinking of taking two Zincovit tablets a day, is that okay? Also, when would be the best time to take them? Would appreciate any advice on this.

Feeling and seeing your pulse in your stomach can be unsettling.
Possible Causes
- Normal variation: As you mentioned, it's normal to feel a slight pulse in the abdominal area.
- Increased abdominal muscle tone: If you've recently started exercising or have increased your physical activity, your abdominal muscles may be more prominent, making the pulse more visible.
- Thin body fat percentage: If you have a low body fat percentage, your abdominal organs, including the aorta, may be more visible.
- Aortic pulse: The aorta, the main artery that carries blood from the heart, runs through the abdominal cavity. A strong aortic pulse can be visible in some individuals.
No Need for Concern
Unless you're experiencing other symptoms like:
- Abdominal pain or tenderness
- Shortness of breath
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Rapid or irregular heartbeat
