Not taking anything, believe in getting all that I need from natural food. So, my meals are usually quite varied. So far so good, last health check, don't need anything except to drink more water.0

Iron 3 times a day and Vitamin D 2 times a day0

Have bad symptoms of PMS. I take a cocktail of vitamins recommended in the research I found on the net to help ease major episodes.
Magnesium = water retention, energy + muscle assistance
B6 = emotions
Vitamin E and calcium for overall symptoms
Considering to add omega3
Also take one 81mg aspirin for heart = no problems with it but overweight (for now) and borderline high cholesterol.0 -
I take a multivitamin supplement daily along with a cranberry fruit supplememnt and a vitamin D supplement to regulate healthy body functions. It's very beneficial for my health and wellness to keep myself healthy.0

Where do I start?
I take a daily multivitamin, D3, Green Tea Extract, MSM (for joints - I can't take glucosamine) and calcium. I also just started taking fish oil, ginseng, and red yeast rice. I'm trying to control high cholesterol and lose weight at the same time. Fun.0 -
OK, this is making me feel old because it's like we're comparing our pills --- which I guess we are. I just recently started supplementing my diet with calcium, iron, and B12. I only take enough calcium and iron to make up for what I didn't get that day with my food. I should probably do more...0

Fish Oil
Multivitamin
5000 IU of Vitamin D (I found out I was deficient)0 -
on a daily basis I take a stress b vitamin, a low dose probiotic, and vitamin d. Probiotic because I was on long term antibiotics and at one point my good bacteria was completely wiped out because of it. Even now that I'm off the antibiotics I still have stomach pain if I don't take a daily probiotic pill. Vitamin D, I'm deficient as are most of us here in New England.0

Bump for reference. Thanks y'all!0

Here's my list....
Multivitamin (Centrum)
Calcium (Allergic to Dairy)
Vitamin D (Allergic to Dairy and I live in a spot with minimal sunshine)
Vitamin B's (supposed to help sleep issues)
L-Lysine (leg swelling)
Aspirin (to help with circulation to prevent leg swelling)
Iron (I don't eat enough red meat)
Probiotic (I am allergic to Dairy, Soy and I have a gluten sensitivity) and I like food0 -
I drink Shakeology because it is all natural with 70+ vitiamins and superfoods. I am a beachbody coach. I also drink Optimun Whey Protien after my daily workouts. I also am a big fan of Organic Chia seeds I mixed in my shake for added anti-oxidents0

I do my multi-vitamin, omega-3s and D both under my doctor's orders. My vitaminD actually gets low enough to alter my moods without it plus it's important in so many other areas.0

Hi
I take the following
Multivitamin - because I know I must be missing something in my diet *lol*
glucosamine (no idea if I spelt that correctly but I'm sure you know what I mean) - it really does help stop my joints aching
probiotic - this is the best think I've ever discovered and is a must for anyone who has ever had IBS
Oil of primrose - on doctors advise for breast pain - works a treat and the pain is gone as long as I keep taking the capsules0 -
I take a multivitamin, fish oil and D3.0
-
Multivitamin
B-complex for metabolism
Safslim safflower oil for belly fat
Vitamin D3 for energy. I am hardly out in the sunshine
chromium picolinate for help with sugar cravings.... i could probably stop taking this one, I've been sugar-free for more than 30 days
zinc to (I am low) to help fight infections and fatigue
I'd say everyone should take a multivitamin, Some type of B and D3 vitamin at least. We eat lots of fish so I am not worried about taking fish oil. And eat a lot of green leafy so not too worried about calcium.0
