Vitamins and Supplements

Do you take them? What? Why?

Re: Vitamins and Supplements

No. Two of my dogs do, cos they`re old. I expect I will, when I get on, too.
I`m not sure you need them unless you have a problem, do you? Like creaky joints and stuff?

Re: Vitamins and Supplements

I take a good quality multivit every now and again - more so if I feel a little run down

I also take some acidophilus now and again too

Currently on calcium as the docs says I need it!

Re: Vitamins and Supplements

Wow! Looks like I'm the one on here:

Centrum Silver for Women multivitamin - 1 daily
Vitamin C - 500 mg once daily unless I feel a cold coming on, then 2
Calcium with Vitamin D 600 mg - 1 daily, prevent bone loss
Trigosamine (glucosamine, chrondroitin, hyaluronate) - 3 daily with meals for my arthritis
Psyllium Husks - 3 daily with meals - fiber
Omega 3 Fish Oil - 1 any day I'm not having fish
Aspirin, 325 mg - 1 daily, prevent stroke/heart attack
Probiotic - occasionally

I don't know if it's because of or despite them, but I'm incredibly healthy; rarely if ever sick!

Was going to ask the same Mags

I don't take any anything-but would take glucosamine if I ever started with joint problems
