I am tired all of the time. Could this mean I am not absorbing the vitamins and minerals I am taking?

    It certainly can. I was tired a lot and had absolutely no energy. When the doctor tested me he found that my iron was good but my B12 was nearly nonexistent. If I dliligently take my B12 (it dissolves under my tongue) I do not have the issues. I also had very low Vitamin D and Folic Acid. I now take these daily to alleviate any bad effects from my low levels and feel great. I also stay away from carbs. They really sap my energy and make me feel sluggish and tired.

    I agree with the vitimans, and always take multi, b12 and iron and just began vitamin D,,,,though excising makes me feel a little less tired through out the day....however I do become very irritable easy,, less patient and a little forgetful....I think that has something to do with nutrient ,,,or maybe just old age.
