What Vitamins do you take ?

[Adrina]

I rely on fish oil too, Omega 3 was taken since 2 years ago.

 

[cherryblossoms]

I just started taking Omega 3 and folic acid, physician told that they're very good for skin

 

[Deborah]

Just out of curiosity, you know how vegemite is supposedly a rich source of vitamin B? Does that make it as effective as perhaps taking vitamins for vitamin B?

Nuts and seeds too. Is vegemite like marmite?

I take a women's multi. Isn't biotin the thing to take for nails? Pretty sure that's it.

 

[Ryan Riverz]

I used to take a normal multi vitamin and cq10..I don't anymore though.

yes biotin's great for nails, plus for skin and hair
but one shouldn't take it for long time, after 2-4 weeks of intake there must be a break for 6 months before starting taking it again, that's what dermatologist told me

What if it's in the daily vitamin you take? Does that apply only if it's in larger amounts.

I take a few different New Chapter products.. I have found them to be great. I take their 'multivitamin' (Every Man: One Daily) their wholemega fish oil, and their turmeric force, which is my favourite product.

^You know, instead of fish oil you can take flaxseed tablets. I hated the fish oil as well, but I've had no problem with flaxseed.

Flax is good, but it doesn't provide you with the ever-so-important DHA that is found in fish oil.

 

[Serenity*Now]

True about the flaxseed ^ ...unfortunately.

I've heard New Chapter is good but pricey. What do you like about their tumeric product??

They are indeed so pricey but you really get what you pay for with most of their stuff. I buy it online at iherb which is like half the price of what it costs in stores, even after shipping.

Their turmeric product is amazing. I don't like standardized extracts, and this one is a really potent full spectrum extract of turmeric, which is biodynamically grown nonetheless! Taking it has really helped with my chronic back pain as well as my complexion. Turmeric is good for pretty much everything.

 

[harmonious]

I take a multi, biotin, and fish oil. The fish oil helped so much with my anxiety and depression, I am a whole new me!

yes, sure, the amount of biotin in the daily vitamin is much smaller than is solid biotin pills, usually just about 10%, so you can freely take your daily vitamin as long as you need

 

[Gincat]

Thanks for the info

 

[Mignonne]

[Dulcisima]

there is a thread about hair growth i know, but i've been puting castor oil with coconut oil on my scalp and my hair grows VERY FAST also, when you have you oil on your hair its ideal to have like some sun exposure . I suffered from an active alopecia and my doctor recommended that i exposue my hair to the sun while i have oil on it, he explained to me hair is just like plant, it needs nuturtion, sleep, sun and also less stress...and my hair grew much much faster...in fact too fast i need to trim it every month

 

[Munz]

^^My hair is very damaged from bad hair color jobs and falling out as well, I think I should start using vitamins and putting oil in my hair..

 

[starcrazy]

I've been taking fish oil (with magnesium, B6 and B12) and EPO for a while now. My skin used to be so dry, now it's soft even without body lotion, my nails are also so much stronger than they used to be. I definitely see this combination working for me, yay!

 

[SofieDK]

Hm, most of you can't use the brand for anything because it's Danish.

- Extra Strong multivitamin
- Queen Bee Food (Should be good for the immune)
- Sillica for the hair
- B6 and Magnesium for pains around my period.

 

[deer_st0p]

I take:

Omega 3
Grape Seed Extract
Vitamin C
Vitamin D3
Vitamin E
