which one would you recommend as Daily Intake and can we take both same day
wondering if taking both same day leads to overdose?

i eat multivitamins everyday after dinner, i am thinking of buying Fish oil capsules too

Thanks in Advance

    I take both a multivitam and fish oil. The fish oil is for the Omega3 and the multivitamin to top up any vitamins I may not have got through the foods. Taking both is recommended since they serve different purposes so no problem having them on the same day.

    They supply completely different things so taking both daily is fine.

    I take a multivitamin every day. I don't take fish oil tablets, though.

    I take both daily, and additional Vitamin C and Zinc tablets.

    Very hard to overdose on either realistically.

    Both here too - plus Caltrate and Vitamin D

    And when I feel a cold coming on, I take Emergen-C morning and night which is Vitamin C (obviously) plus a lot more.

    These are all at my primary care physician's recommendation.

    I do both, too. My multivitamin is one of those vitamins for women of a certain age (LOL!) that I get from the health food store. It helped a lot with joint pain, digestive problems, etc. Then I take a few fish oil capsules.
