Will this be suitable for daily use, for long periods of time (5 years)? Or do the additional ingredients make that unadvisable? I am not using this for cold relief.

Hi. The vitamin contains no animal-based product right?

This product contains stevia. It IS an artificial sweetener. It is a chemically derived form of stevia leaf, and thus hardly natural. A warning should be included on the label.
