What supplements do you recommend and why?

Question

I recently started studying supplements and am now taking Omega-3, CoQ10, and milk thistle. I'm curious what others take (and dosage) and what the benefits are. Also - what brand? I buy from Swanson Vitamins online.

Answer 1

I am unsure of you diet so I can not make a proper recommendation.  If you are not eating fruits and vegetables on a daily bases, take Nutrilite Concentrated Fruits and Vegetables.  It has 10+ servings of fruits and vegetables in just 2 tablets.  You may need a multivitamin so take Nutrilite Double X Vitamin/Mineral/Phytonutrient. As you can see, it is more than a multivitamin. It also contains minerals and phytonutrient. There is also Nutrilite Daily Multivitamin/Multimineral if you are wanting something simple. Vitamin source is really important to me.  I don't like the synthetic stuff which I believe Swanson is.  Nutrilite is an organic vitamin company.  Organic is gentle on the stomach and has a higher absolution rate. They have organic farms in Washington State and California and were the first supplement company.  Go to http://Arcameda.com and click on vitamins then Multivitamin to get more information on these or search for fruit in the search box. You can also click on Women's Health for more organic options. If you have any further questions, go to my profile to email me. Hope all is well.

I recently came across a supplement site that is targeted for us girls.  I recently ordered their energy supplement and I love it.  I just ordered their daily supplement.  It's a bit pricey - but my health is worth it.  Check it out http://www.drlark.com
