Multi-vitamins/other supplements

Well, more for health and to support my body through a vigorous, active lifestyle and wanting my best chance at health, I use Rainbow Light's Advanced Nutritional System and Rainbow Light's Complete Nutritional System. They are full of many things that are excellent for you.... yes, they cost a bit more- to be sure.... I also use Vital Choice's Sockeye Salmon oil tablets- again, they are expensive. I have lots of health issues in my family, so I'm trying to twart disease and illness. D3 is also very good for you.
I also take Royal Jelly tablets which are full of antioxidants.

I know- i sound like a walking pharmacy or someone who is a paranoid hypocondriac... but I lead an active lifestyle and seek energy and health. I am rarely ill and look younger than I am.
I also take Alli to help me along my weight loss journey.
When I lifted weights, I combine Raw Meal- (powder) with powdered Goat Milk and Water and some sweetener to provide a clean source of protein after lifting weights.

Everything I mention above I purchase online.

Hope this helps.

i take a garlic and cayenne pepper supplement--the garlic is supposed to help with your immune system and i think the cayenne pepper helps with metabolism.

ginger--helps with digestion; i've heard that it makes your system more efficient and you don't absorb all the icky stuf that makes ya' fat! haha, it also helps with an upset stomach.

cranberry and probiotic pills--i'm a woman so it's smart to take these

wellness formula--all around immunity.

however i heard fish oil is supposedly good for weight loss but i've looked up a couple of things and read many different things. unfortunately there's no miracle supplement.

I had been taking Alive™ for Women but they are horse pills and I just have a hard time swallowing them


I recently ordered a multi combined with a probiotic.... (chewable)

Im anemic ( 325mg 3 times a day) and am low on Vit D ( 50K once a week) , so I take the MEGA doses of those, as prescribed by my physician

If you can, it is far better to get your nutrition through your food intake. However, this is often times difficult to achieve.

A general multivitamin may be suitable for your needs if you have across the board deficiencies in various nutrients and minerals. Many doctors also suggest slim fast due to it's significantly packed nutrients. MY 100lb mother for example, was told by her doctor to drink 1 a day for a while to up her nutrient intake.

If you find yourself lacking in one or two nutrients commonly, you may want to investigate new food choices to add to your diet that will bring those that are lacking in line. Otherwise you may need to take a supplement that covers that particular deficiency.

Supplements are not regulated by the FDA or any other governmental health agency. Be cautious purchasing them because they are NOT required by law to actually contain what they say they contain, and are also not required by law to NOT contain what they say they don't contain. (So a vitamin C supplement that says 100% vitamin C and nothing else could legally be 50% vitamin C and 50% horse poop)

There are several independent organizations that inspect supplements and will allow their logo placed on the container if they've inspected them and approved of them.

^also, i heard cinnamon is good for metabolism and hoodia is good to suppress hunger. i took hoodia when i did the master cleanse and it was good about keeping those pangs at bay. disclaimer: DO NOT DO THE CLEANSE! haha.
