anyone take vitamins, green tea, fish oils, etc... I need suggestions.

[will76]

I am a steak and potatoe kind of guy. I don't eat very many fruits or vegtables at all.

I have never taken vitamins either. Since I don't eat the best I want to take some type of suppliments, anyone have any suggestions.


please no need for " megadick, viagra " comments, everything good there

[will76]

anyone try this ? http://www.mpdirect.com/index.php?ma...oducts_id=1318

Ultimate Reds ?

Combines 20 fruit and vegetable ingredients to form the highest source of antioxidants available. Known as "nature's sponge", antioxidants absorb and remove harmful free radicals from the body. They have been shown to improve energy, lower cholesterol and blood pressure, support healthy joints and cardiovascular function, and even fight macular degeneration. All-natural Ultimate Reds - great tasting, powerful antioxidants to help you maintain good health.

Do you suffer from poor energy, high blood pressure, or poor overall health? Ultimate Reds can help. It’s important to know that for optimal health and energy, Dr. Michael Pinkus says that you need far more natural anti-oxidents from fruits and vegetables than the recommended RDA level of only 4 servings per day.

I heard his infomercial on the radio the other night, sounded good to me. Anyone else try this ?

If you only took one supplement, it should be fish oil.

[will76]

cool guys thanks for the fish oil tips. I will order some of that too.

[candyflip]

I drink Mona Vie and take DoubleX vitamins, which are an Amway product.

I don't eat that well either, and this is something I've been doing for the past 2 months. I didn't feel any difference at first, but now that I'm into it a bit I definitely feel it.

[pr0]

vitamins are all crap....if you really can't stand vegetables try to find a nice salsa you dig.....& eat chips n salsa daily

Why Omega-3?
Over 20,000 clinical studies have shown that the benefits of omega-3 fish oil may include the reduction of up to 45% in heart-related sudden deaths and the lowering of levels of harmful triglycerides.

sounds like stuff i should definetly be taking since there is a history of heart attacks in my family and my triglycerides are always borderline high.

[BergyK]

Yeah, the omega 3 fish oil is good. I take it all the time. Eat some fruits when your bored. Fruits are good

I think woj advice is good, personally I use "Plusssz active" it's very nice vitamin supplement to drink, plus each tablet contains about 100mg of caffeine so it helps to be more concentrated too..

There are few people who make REAL money with Amway. My parents are in that group.

That Mona Vie stuff does just that. You drink 2-4 ozs daily. It tastes like blueberries.

My ass didn't feel right for a week, but now it's doing just fine.

I've got a few cases here if you want to try some out.

[Aquarius]

Right now I'm taking odorless garlic pills.

there is an article on cnn.com right now about multi's.. u should read it.

i recommend chewables because those are more likely to be absorbed. dont eat ones that are hard as a rock, because, well it's like eating a rock. thats my opinion.

i get my vit/mil from health bars. i get my "veggies" from fruit smoothies.. smoothies are the b-o-m-b. .. the botttled fruit ones of course. not the ones made with grass - yuk!
oh, get smooothes not from concentrate. thats the better juice.

I learned more working in a network marketing company for a year then i did in 4 - 5 years of college. I am talking beneficial stuff like sales, public speaking, motivational thinking, goals oriented, being self employeed, networking and helping people. Where as college taught me shit that makes me a little better watching jeopardy.

[fuzzylogic]

some smoothies have flax seeds in them which carries the same benefit as fish oil. fish oil gets me paranoid due to the heavy metals that collect in fish fat.

[sltr]

i highly recommend intramax liquid vitamins/minerals & udo's essential fatty acids

intramax sub-lingual application, i've been taking it for 2+ years now.
i used to use the ultimate reds you mentioned and that product is really good but i actually noticed a more pronounced effect from the intramax
http://www.druckerlabs.com/intramax.html

i also drink 2 tablespoons of udo's oil a day in a protein shake

you are what you eat.
eat junk -- become junk.

[fuzzylogic]

...oh, and you are what you think ;)

[dready]

Just take a good multi everyday.

If you live in the North, add some vitamin D.

If you cum a lot, add some zinc.

Ginseng can give a nice energy boost. I take it every day, and triple the dose if I get a cold.

naked smooties have a pound of fruit - nearly all of which is puree'd -- in each little bottle. thats a good and easy way to get your daily fruits and vegies.

[Video Rob]

I take a good multivitamin 1 - 2 times a day. As for oils, I take a blend of omega 3, 6 and 9, and I take extra omega 3 (usually flax oil) on top of that. I don't measure the oils exactly, I just pour a bit on my food once or twice a day.

[Nicky]

a multivitamin and some omega 3, no need to over-do it

[teg0]

It all kind of depends on what results you're looking for. If you're just trying to go healthy then stick with a good multi-vitamin, but only have it with a meal otherwise you'll end up pissing most of it.

b2, calicum, and salts are pissed out if not needed regardless if consumed in/with a meal or not. other stuff in multis do require fat, proteins and/or fiber to be "seen" by the body. plus, eating a multi on an empty stomach can hurt.

[steved]

Drink Green and/or White Tea everyday. I get Green/White Fusion from Stash.com. Haven't been sick for 10 years since I started drinking it daily.

Also, don't drink cow's milk. Do you know how much puss is in each glass? 8th Continent Soy Milk is better for you and the chocolate version tastes just like chocolate milk

The vegi-supplement pills and fish oil are good too

[zigx]

why not just start eating fruits and veggies???

[Elli]

Nothing can replace a balanced diet. Just make sure you have something colourful on your plate for every meal. (Fruits and veggies are usually more colourfull than meat or grains, which tend to be brown and brown.)

Not a milk drinker either.

I ordered the ultimate reds for my vitamins, and fish oil for my heart / triclycerides. I will pick up some ginseng for (energy and memory?) and a good multi purpose type vitamin. I should be the most healthy person in the world after all of that.

I am mainly looking to try to take better care of my body. I don't eat garabage but I don't eat healthy either. I watch what I eat but many for saturated fat and cholesterol. I stay away from most "junk" and anything high in sat fat.

[xxxjay]

Don't take 1 multivitamin...take like 3...i've been doing it almost every day since I was 18 and I've aged pretty well.

[Slick]

I take GNC's Mega Man Sport along with a few supplements Omega 3 fish oil, odorless garlic, and cranberry.

[Violetta]

Im not a healthy eater me neither. Better start eating some vitamin pills soon!

organic cows milk tastes wonderful. i have a glass everyday. choco soy milk does _not_ taste like choco milk. no way, no way no way. soy milk is gross.

it's unclear if vegi-supplement pills better or equal to eating real vegi's. it is clear that real vegis (not pills) are better for health. no one knows why. one theory is the fiber. another is the health of the green chemicals and flavonoids in greens/fruits. however, those chemicals can be taken in a pill. but again, those who eat the real thing seem to fair better in the long run. but diet studies are very complicated with many, many variables.

who knows.
but we do know that reducing the amount of processed foods while consuming more fruits/veggies is better for health.

[calibra]

3-4 apples every day, switch to green tea (instead of black tea), and "Centrum" in the morning with a couple of glasses of orange juice

[Dirty Dane]

Most important: Exercise. Pills can't help you with that.

consuming high amounts of minerals can lead to kidney stones!

just energy. however, a simulated body can lead to a simulated mind.
anyway, i am a small man so i prefer the softer ginseng called 'euthero" or "siberian".

[peterk]

Definitely I would go for that fish oil
