Do you take vitamins?
 

I have been takeing these one a day mens health formula multivitamins and I am almost out thinking about switching up trying some other kind?

instead i get health bars like _balance_ throughout the day.

gotta be careful with vitamins -- they are unregulated and may contain heavy metals. furthermore, hard vitamin pills often go undigested because they are packed hard as a rock.

a study about six months ago with over 120k subjects showed an increase of cancer with vitamin suplement users.

yes vitamin C

I take vitamin C every day

Mr. Romance

im pretty ocd about my vitamin C, I also take a multi and b

I stopped when my doctor reminded me that in the US there is NO monitoring of manufacturing of herbals and vitamins. As he showed me in some test reports what is on the label may not be in the capsule.

yes, 6 capsules daily at bedtime like religion. i recommend it.

1 1500mg vitamin C
1 400 vitamin E
1 calcium chew chocolate or strawberry
1 multivitamin with minerals (generic walgreens centrum clone)
1 1 fish oil capsule
1 saw palmetto herb (for prostate health, strong jism shooting)

i have not been sick, even a cold in the last 10 years. also i exercise (ride bike indoors or out 30 mins daily) and lift dumbbells for 15 minutes during letterman each night.

Same here. :thumbsup

yes i take vitamins

Why are you thinking about switching up trying some other kind? What brand are you using?

Aren't there any interaction happenning inside of you because of using tons of vitamins/supplements? Do you think/feel they are working?

You are right probono. while a lot of supplements in the market show promising contents, there are a lot of these supplements which contains banned substances. I used to take these multivitamins which contains the A-Z but no good.

I take walks

I take a multivitamin with my breakfast.

centrum is doctor recomended:thumbsup

I hate every kind of pills.
I eat fruits and vegetables instead. I know that most of them comes from greenhouses, but I think they're healthy enough to replace the pills.

I don't take additional vitamins. It's not needed...

Nothing wrong with some vitamin C.

synthetic vitamins - never.
only fresh vegetables and fruits.

If there are interactions, I don't know about them. It's all doctor recommended, so I feel comfortable with the mix.

And if I didn't feel like they were doing some good, I wouldn't be taking them. :)

i take daily;

multivitamin
vitamin c (twice)
b complex (twice)
calcium
glucosamine
anti oxidents
aminos
flax seed oil
glutamine
protein


and no... it's not harmful. your body can handle it. water soluable vitamins get pissed out if they are taken in excess. fat soluable vitamins have to be ingested in absurd quantities for any sort of toxicity problems to occur.

there is a lot of BS about vitamins not dissolving etc etc etc etc... 99% bullshit. i am not saying it doesn't happen. but just because Joe Bobs Vitamin company makes a shitty product and you were dumb enough to buy them from an ad in the back of a comic book... does not mean that they are typical of ALL vitamins.

there are standards by which all vitamins are processed and criteria for how quickly they must be broken down and dissolved. if you are overly concerned about this and for whatever reason think that your typical mainstream multivatamin is going to be passed through your body and not be broken down by the VERY strong acids and enzymes in your stomach and intestinal tract, then look for those which are approved by and meet the standards of the United States Pharmacopoeia and other similar organizations.

uninformed hippies are annoying.
