I take a multi-vitamin and I stare at it all morning because I hate taking it. But I know it is good for me and really makes a difference in how I feel. What do you take? I know this a random question but it just kind of popped in my head.
I take a multi vitamin every morning but I dont feel a difference. Why do you hate taking it?

I take a multi vitamin in the morning. I'm not too crazy about it, it is enormous.

multivitamin -- my doctor told me to start just because you never know with trying to get pregnant and better to be on it. Plus diet being so erratic, you know?

Centrum A to Zinc. I didn't feel a difference, but after I stopped taking them for a week my nails became weak, so they must be doing something. I only take them mon to fri at work.

I take a multi, and in addition I take Vitamins C (for immunity), & B-1 (for energy), zinc, (for immunity) calcium, and omega-3 (since I don't eat fish). My grandpa's a vitamin freak-- has been taking all different kinds for most of his life, and is in great shape, so I figured he must be doing something right! If you have any specific questions about certain vitamins, let me know!

Re: QOTA: What vitamins do you take?
I don't take any, and my doctor and everyone harps on me for not taking any....I should take at least Iron, bc I'm really really anemic...my mother is all about the herbal stuff..she lives on echinacea and stuff like that and I refuse...she begs me to take a multi, but its just not happening, for some reason I'm against the vitamins..

Re: QOTA: What vitamins do you take?
Well, I take the following
2 Flintstones mulit = to one adult mulit and tastes much much better, but it's true why do mulit vitamins always smell weird and have a funky aftertaste?? lol
I also take one extra B-12, 2 iron pills and one calcium a day..
For those preparing for pregnancy it's recommended to take 1 mulit, 1 iron, 1 folic acid a day

I also take my Flintstones multi because the taste is MUCH MUCH better. Even my surgeon suggested it. As long as it is taken with food, it absorbs quicker into your system. I take extra A & D, calcium and stopped my iron since it was bothering me. But now I get the extra iron in my prenatal vitamins!!

Re: QOTA: What vitamins do you take?
We get most of ours from Trader Joes:
I take a several:
Multi-vitamin Very greens- helps clean toxins from the boold stream and liver Vitamin E Vitamin C- multi doesn't really contain enough Calcium with Zinc (FH doesn't take this one but it's really important to ward off osteoporosis) Echinacea- when I feel run down
I've been taking them for a long time. Three out of four of FH's grandparents died on cancer. My dad had a stroke at 57... massive. I lead a stressful life balancing caring for him, teaching high school full time (college courses), fixing up a house, planning a wedding. I have to try to keep the stress down and be healthy.
