    Just Omega 3 fish oil and I'm still convinced it's more akin to snake oil than anything else.

    I take:

    12 x 1000mg of holland & barrett fish oil (this gives me just over 5g of EPA/DHA per day)
    2 x 200ug chromium picolinate
    15g milled flaxseed (either mixed with oats for breakfast or in a protein shake)

    When lifting I have 15g of BCAA powder mixed into a sports drink (usually powerade) to take throughout my training session.

    Vitamin D (Low vitamin D always, NJ weather I guess)
    Just started vitamin B12 (although I used to get shots and never felt any different)
    2 gummy multis (or else my kids won't take them if i don't)
    I eat Greek yogurt usually at least every other day and drink herbal tea regulary although know why that counts?

    Any suggestions? 37 year old working mom of three small kids. hypothyroid and 8 months into fitness and diet with 20 lbs down (Yes, I know. taking forever).

    If you're taking multi vitamins, be sure they're not syrup based and also if you're a gym junky like myself you'll need extra nutrients. C, E, Cal, Mag and AntiOxidants. You can get your vitamin D just by sitting in the sun for 10 minutes and let the sun rays touch your face and hands. Hope this helps!

    and I have studied vitamin formulations and ingredients for a while now and these work best for myself, my family/friends, and patients.
