Anyone here take vitamins on a daily basis?

Vitamin B, C, fish oil and a multi-vitamin! Vitamin B is like caffeine for me!

Hmmm...I take a lot of vitamins, or so it seems like I do when I have a handful to consume. I take a multi vite, fiber supplement, extra vitamin D, extra vitamin E, a B Complex and an Omega-3 with with C & D. Whew! That's all I take at the moment but I am slowly learning about vitamins and supplements and I know that I will eventually add more when I figure out what I'm NOT getting from my food. Our kids take a multi vitamin and our pre-teen daughter also takes extra Zinc, C & D.

My "daily vitamins" have been made into a recipe in my food diary because about half of what I take are the vitafusion gummy vitamins and contain carbs so I count them daily as a "food" to keep my carb counts as accurate of an estimation as possible :bigsmile:

I also take vitamins. Multi,x3, Fish Oil x2, JointMax x3, CQ10 x3. I also make sure to read the label for toxins. Here is a web site I use http://www.mortechems.com/

But I really believe you have to supplement with todays food. Just use a good vitamin. I use http://www.faceliftmasks.com/ also sold on AMAZON

No. I did take them religiously when younger, but when I stopped for a while and felt no difference, I never started again.

sometimes i drink shakeology, and i also take CoQ10, Selenium, Vitamin C 1,000 mg, L carnitine as well :-)

Tried taking women's multi but it was making me throw up as soon as I took it after a couple days, so I stopped. Anyone else have this problem? I also have to take iron pill as to I'm anemic.

I take Cod Liver oil with multi-vitamins capsules from Holland & Barrett's daily.

pinkraynedropjacki

Blooms Acetyl L-carnitine x3
Swisse Womens multi x2
Swisse Womens green multi x1
Swisse Krill oil (better & stronger than fish oil) x1
Guarana with caffeine & ginseng x1
Amcal Fluid retention tabs x2
Swisse Liver detox x1
Swisse Iron x1
Swisse Vitamin d x1

Also forgot to add..... 2x Swisse sleep tablets. They help me sleep better & that way I wake up not as tired & therefore dont eat as much. Win win.


That's every day. Then add my panadine forte on top & I need to take psyllium husk tablets to combat that. I can't believe how many people here swallow so many fish oil tablets when they could take ONE small krill oil tablet & it would be like taking 6 fish oil ones. THAT is how good krill oil is.

Same problem here with the pill multivitamins. Found that taking it as a gummy vitamin (yes, they make them for adults) completely stopped that. :happy:

Yup,
The best multi I found is "Alive".
These are great for reducing cholesterol. I dropped 73 points in 30 days without a diet change. My wife's cholesterol dropped 89 points in 45 days.

I also take a garlic tab, cayenne tab, Fish oil, parillo oil, CLA, Celery seed, Ginhko and ginseng, Vitamin B, Yeah its over the top but I feel great. I can't remember the last time I was sick or had a cold, flu - nothing. Works for me. My MD says its a waste of money but I'm fifty and don't take any prescription meds.

I was taking my vitamins and some other supplements daily until they started making me sick, so I scaled back. I started taking the vitamin like 3 or 4 times a week. Once I scaled back, I was no longer sick. Now I take prenatal vitamins and a flaxseed softgel and I take those everyday.

I take Vitamin C, B6, B12 and Green Tea Extract every day.

foreversunshine1

Multi-vitamin, B complex, magnesium and calcium

Italianyc84

I take a multi, zinc, b-12 sublingual,flaxseed oil, calcium and a high dose of a good quality omega 3. I also take vitamin D on occasion.

I take Platinum Natural's Activ-X for women, each bottles gives you a 2-month supply - it isn't cheap at Nutrition House (70$/bottle) And so only use it certain times of the year, otherwise I could probably pass for a Multibionta or something simple along those lines. The Activ-X contains green tea extract, primrose oil and your EFAs along with varying amounts of any nutrients you may need.

I do eat a healthy diet with all food groups but some months of rthe year all depending on which sport I'm training for I need a bit more nutrients than one can get

1200 milligrams of fish oil-1200 milligrams of calcium and vitamin D-one women's multivitamin

I take probably about 60+ vitamins per day but that's all the doses. Some call for two twice a day; 3 three times a day; five twice a day etc. I take a daily multi with niacin; special vitamins through Genewize that are for me only, coQ10; Omega 3; Vitamin D - probably about 5,000 IU's a day; calcium; vitamins for my heart, vascular health, liver, eyes, various berry vitamins among other things.

It sounds like a lot however I am hardly sick and on the off chance that I do get sick it lasts a couple of days.

I take One A Day Women's Forumla, Magnesium3 times a week, D (prescribed) once a week, B12 three times a week, when I don't get injections (always low on b12) I just started taking Osteo Biflex (I don't know if you would consider that a vitamin) My sister keeps pushing me to take fish oil... just can't get around the taste of the burps (past experience)

jbyesh

I take a multi for women daily. Vitamin D (Rx) weekly as I just found out I have a vitamin D deficiency. Surprising since I walk outside sans sunscreen 1 hour day.

I give my 4yo flintstones with iron since her last check up revealed she was low in iron. My 2 year old gets gummy vitamins.

smilesalot1969

Yes i take an A-Z multivitamin and mineral complex, vitamin c and magnesium, evening primrose, odourless garlic, cod liver oil and also oat bran capsules

cllgeplz

I take Fish Oil to loosen my joints, Hair skin and nails , for obvious reasons, and prenatals for overall health. I am not pregnant, but prenatals are like general vitamins on crack. The only ones that tack on anything are Fish oil, but it's 35 calories. Also, just as an aside, drinking chocolate milk after a workout helps repair the muscles. Look it up if you don't believe me:)
