What supplements and vitamins do you take?
I thought this might be an interesting thread as many here are concerned with natural health and swine flu and all that. I'm just curious as to what you take.

I'm taking the Vitamin Code (raw-created) vitamins for women because they are easy for me to digest. (They make all different kinds of formulas.) That covers my vitamin/mineral basic needs, plus they have probiotics, superfoods (antioxidants and all).

I also am taking Tart Cherry because it helps with inflammation. I think, if the flu strikes, it might be helpful, as it reduces a kind of inflammation that is bad in the body. Some people take it for arthritis.

I'm taking L-theanine (the stuff in green tea) because it's so safe and very good for calming and relaxing--plus the antioxidants and green tea health benefits.

To round it out, Emergen-C everyday, 1 vitamin E every other day, CLA for metabolism, and Cal-Mag (but I tend to forget this one as it's in my fridge.) I also need to start taking fish oil again.

I have an anxiety disorder, so this is the regimen I came up with after research. What do you do?

Only herbs.
The superfood herbs that are like a multivitamin are spirulina and chlorella. They are often packaged for multi-level marketing so watch out for that and just get the pure stuff.)

Bumping for other replies.

I forgot to add that I've added 1000 iu of vitamin D, too, since I'm pale and don't get out in the sun much without sunscreen.

I've been taking these vitamins designed by Durk Person and Sandy Shaw for over twenty years. I regard this as a staple in my vegetarian diet. It's a strong boost to the immune system, preventing sickness and illness.

Multivitamin, L-Lysine, Fish Oil, and VegeGreens (I find it terribly hard to stuff vegetables down my trap).

I do have stocked up Sambucol, Colloidal Silver, Zinc & Echinacea lozenges, and Vitamin D3 in case of emergency. I find in Canada it is too expensive to take some of these on a daily basis.

Glucosamine sulfate, for arthritis in my hip. Yes, it helps.

For healthy bones teeth skin and joint cartlidge you want vit d with calcium and magnesium. The magnesium is very important, but so is D because we are indoor too much on this pc.

Also what most don't want to hear is that animal protein causes loss of bone calcium, according to numerous medical studies you should be able to find.

Cholesterol meds can also affect bone health by disrupting vit d production in the skin cholesterol.

Re: What supplements and vitamins do you take?
Almost every day I take:

1,000 mg Vitamin C (high quality complex)
200 mg Magnesium Glycinate
50 mg B-Complex
1000 mg MSM
2000 IU Vitamin D

I try to take the above in the morning, with food, and repeat it at night. (not the D)

I go on rolls with the rest of this stuff, I take it for a week or two at a time and then give it a rest:

400 IU Vitamin E
30 mg Zinc
10,000 IU Vitamin A
?? Chromium Picolinate
200 mcg Selenium
500 mg Silica


Sometimes I take the following when it seems like a good idea:

Olive leaf extract
Elderberry extract
Fresh raw garlic
Enzyme complex
Bromelain
Potassium Iodide

I probably forgot some stuff. Lately I have been having Emergen-C with my lunch at work too.

Also when I cook, I use a lot of herbs and spices freely. I buy them in bulk and am generous with them. I drink green tea sometimes and take apple cider vinegar in water sometimes.

I have been stepping up my vitamin C lately and including ascorbic acid powder which I mix with water.
