Vitamins?

Recently I was told I should be taking a Vitamin D supplement. Talking with some people at work and they take a lot more supplements. I know I was Vit D deficient, so what else does everybody take and why???

You do not need to take the suplements, all you need is 10 mins out in the sun without sunscreen, you will get enough VIT D on your face from that time

I take a multivitamin with iron and calcium. Both of those things are really important for women and calcium will help prevent osteoporosis. I am lactose intollerant so without the supliment, I am lacking most days. I also just found that the multivitamin made me feel better since there are always vitamins I don't get through normal foods in a day.

I take Centrum for women.

Hello! I actually take quite a few supplements. I have worked for a homeopathic doctors' office and many of the treatments involved taking vitamins along with dietary changes. Low levels of vitamin D are common and the effects can be far reaching. Having a deficiency can cause feelings of irritability, depression, and fatigue along with headaches and 'brain fog'. I take 5,000 mg of D, 2,000mg of Vitamin C, to boost energy and immune system, Omega 3 fish oils are very important for heart health, also great for your skin, and incredibly also helps to reduce pain with periods. I also take Quercitan to reduce inflammation and allergies, Vitamin B plus folic acid to boost energy and also an iron supplement. There are others I take when I am feeling that I may be getting sick: A and D, Echinacea, Zinc and increase the C. I know it seems like a lot but I definitely notice the difference since taking them (about 8 months now), I have not even gotten a small cold and energy levels are up. Hope this helps!
