Guest guest Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Janet, I switch between supplements also, but like you, there are some that I always take. Today I take a - multi vitamin - Vit D-3 (6000IU) - B-Complex x3 - Vit C 3x2(3000mg total) - Calcium AEP - Lovaza prescription Omega 3 - Spirulina - CoQ10 x3 - Reishi Mushroom 2x3 - Baclofen(of course) - Aspirin (81mg per day) - multi-enzyme (1x2) - Probiotic 2x2 - Betain Hydrochloride (2x2) - Power Poop from 's corner x4 Others have been tried and eliminated. I think this is even too many. I am always trying to minimize supplementation as I have witnessed how excessive (and expensive) it can get. -Tim > > > Time for a re-think of supplements. > , who is on Prokarin takes ca, ma, zinc and B12. > What are others surviving on? > > I want to revamp my huge intake of supplements. > As I still follow the BBD , having allergies to most of the foods they recommend you not eat anyway, I am taking acidophilus to counter the no dairy in my diet.

I take pycnogenol as a strong antioxidant, IP6 to get rid of iron in the brain, green tea extract and turmeric to help circulation, and spirulina in the summer to help avoid cramp in the swimming season. I shall play around with the rest and see if I really need them anymore. > > What do you all find are your " must haves " ? > Thanks, > Janet > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 I was taking lots of enzymes before Prokarin but H2 stimulates digestive enzymes and with Elaine's advice I opted to take the 'less is more route'. > > > Time for a re-think of supplements. > , who is on Prokarin takes ca, ma, zinc and B12. > What are others surviving on?
