Vitamins/Minerals

[Full Quiver]

What types of vitamins and minerals are part of your daily regiment if any?

I take a One a Day Men's Health Formula multi-vitamin when I can choke it down. Sometimes I just can't swallow that big pill.

Also I take a 1000mg odorless Garlic softgel, 600-800mcg of Chromium Picolinate (for metabolism and to keep my hypoglycemia in check), and a high potency B&C complex tablet.

Flinstone's chewables are just as effective as any other multi-vitamin. So, if you can't swallow large pills try those. Always check the serving size on all medications, don't assume it is always 1 tablet. One example of this is calcium supplements, they are almost always 2 tablets. Just my .02

I take 2 a flinstones per day and calcium supplements, zinc and biotin.

I figured that about the Flintstones Jinger, thanks.

Yes most of the recommendations are to take 3 and 4 tabs a day but I figured some of that was so that you run out faster, go buy more, and thus they sell more.

didn't think about that. I will check into them. I have been on the lookout for a supplement. My challenge is that I have a sulfa-alergy, so nearly all (all that I have looked at) have sulfa directly or some kind of -sulfate. never thought to check Flintstones, or the like.

I take the whole hand-full (along with 3 medications) in one swallow with a glass of juice or milk. My wife can't believe it. She gags down one pill at a time.
