    D3 because I am deficient in it - per Doc's orders I take 1,000 I.U. / day
    Vitamin C - because I'm a elementary teacher and I want to help myself keep from getting sick
    Super B Complex - for metabolism and energy (I have a slow thyroid and am on meds for that)

    Egg White protein for post workout (I'm allergic to whey)
    Biotin 1000mcg for my hair lol
    Vegan Tropical Strawberry Shakeology for my IBS-C, energy, super foods, stamina, for lunch so I'm not skipping a meal (not a lunch person), non-whey non-soy source of protein (again, allergic to whey), and my immunity. Oh and my now super lustrous hair! lol

    May add another egg white protein pre workout...

    How much C do you take? There's another product called Flu Plus by BHI-Heel (you can find on Lucky Vitamin.com) that's great for helping to fend off not only the flu, but anything viral. My mom's holistic doc originally recommended it to her.

    Whey - I lift.

    Multivitamin - just in case it helps.
