Cayenne powder also helps circulation

Currently taking the Nature Made Men's daily multivitamin pack with Lutein. When this supply runs out I might change it up but haven't decided yet. I have to avoid any supplements with iron, however.0

Also, after this came out in the news I've been very suspicious of any herbal products:

Multivitamin.
Twice a week B-complex. (Supposed to help with nerve regeneration & brain function.)
Twice a week D. (Helps with brain function / mood, as well as maintaining bones.)
When I was recovering from orthopedic surgery, I took more D as well as calcium & protein.
The vitamins it's easier to overdose on are fat-soluble: A, D, E, K.
The vitamins it's hard to overdose on are water-soluble, which is everything else. Doesn't mean you can
swallow a bottle of them, but don't worry too much if your nutrition graph shows you're at 500% once in
a while.0 -

Don't know why my post got removed but as it wasn't against the rules nor was it advertising. I haven't needed to take anything other than Vitamin C, B-12 and a Vegan Shakeology daily as it has a lot of vitamins and minerals in it already.-3

I try and get everything from diet alone. No vitamin pills of any sort required thus far and no problems have arisen.0

Are you a beachbody coach by chance? Your other post got flagged because it sounded like spam.0 -
No, I'm not a coach, I don't sell or advocate their shakes as I think they are high in price. I get mine from eBay to save a few bucks. I only mentioned it as that has practically every vitamin that I take in it which is what this thread is about.Sarasmaintaining wrote: »Don't know why my post got removed but as it wasn't against the rules nor was it advertising.
