    Hi just seeing your post. I take an all natural supplement called Moringa Oliefera; It has 90 nutrients (vitamins), 46 antioxidants, 20 amino acids (9 of the essential one's). It provides me all the energy I need and I feel absolutely wonderful at age 69. I walk 2 to 3 miles a day.

    Sorry, haven't figured out yet how to turn my picture around.

    I'm also curious about vitamins for lowering blood pressure too. I have high blood pressure but my doctor and I feel I'm a tad too young to start blood pressure medication yet. I've taken numerous tests and everything else seems fine it just seems to be my blood pressure is just high. And now I'm anemic- which just started this year. The bp has been an ongoing issue for the past 5 years or so. P.S. I tried Hawthorne supplements, I did seem to have some minor success at lowering the bp but seems to have gone up again and now the Hawthorne does not work for me anymore.
    Maybe try a combination of niacin and magnesium. Both can have a blood-pressure lowering effect when taken over a period of time. Just don't combine them with any HBP medication, since they can enhance the effects.

    Multi- though I'm starting to wonder if I should keep taking it, I take so many others.
    Iron- At the recommendation of my doctor as I've suddenly become anemic.
    Calcium Magnesium- Apparently to help absorb vitamins and minerals.
    Vitamin C- I find it helps with allergies.
    Vitamin B 100- for everything else.

    Calcium doesn't help absorption of vitamins and especially iron, in fact it does the opposite, Vitamin C does though. I would take the calcium at the same time as the iron.
