    I take a multi, vit D, Vit B, calcium, iron and Glucosamine/Chondroitin/MSM. I do not absorb nutrients well and the doses are spaced out at different times of the day. My last blood work came back and I FINALLY have everything in the normal ranges! (Go me!)

    Multivitamin (Centrum Silver for Women), because I never eat enough fruits and vegetables, glucosamine for arthritis, and iron because of ferritin deficiency.

    I take Vitamin D, 4000IU because of chronic Vitamin D deficiency, monitored by my doctor.

    I take turmeric because it's supposed to help ward off depression (there's a peer-reviewed study on this) and I'm afraid to go back to my former prescribing doctor, who turned out to be an unhinged lunatic who claimed I was going to kill myself based on my admission that 30 years ago I'd had a self-harm thought, and then left a message on my phone basically saying he'd have to have the police come pounding on my door to drag me to a looney hatch. Psych crazier than patient, hashtag irony. Psychiatrist phobia since then, double-irony.

    Those are the only supplements I take.

    I have purchased a bunch of different stuff and still have them in the kitchen cabinet where I forget to take them most days. In the bathroom where I will take it is the 81 mg aspirin. My doc recommended Tylenol PM as a sleep aid, so that, too.
