@Klaus said in What vitamins (etc) do you take?:

Vit D 5000 IU daily. Magnesium, fish oil, glycine, n-acetylcysteine, hyaluronic acid, collagen peptides, creatine, betaine.

You're more machine than man, now.

I thought I read somewhere that multivitamins don’t really do anything?

If you have a good, balanced diet, probably not.

Now, how many of us always have a good balanced diet everyday?

Some of them are ridiculously expensive and I really don't believe you need them. I appear to be in the minority in this view, both here and at home.

Multivitamins and minerals combo pill in days when I don't feel my regular food intake gives me sufficient nutrients. Iron supplements because I donate blood several times a year.

I figure the multi just couldn’t hurt. Kirkland so not expensive.

Multivitamin. Some extra Vit C in the winter.

Same, though Vitamin C throughout the year when I remember. LOL

Vitamin D when I remember.

Also take apple cider vinegar when eating (also when I remember)

Agree with everybody that multi- vitamins may not too much. But, I dont think that they really will hurt you either.

Lots of fish oil, interesting.

I’ve heard you should treat fish oil like a food. Make sure it’s high quality and relative fresh. Eat it with your meal (they say your body absorbs it differently vs taking it alone). Make sure the amount is high enough.

Interesting, thanks!

I eat loads of fish so I’ve never even given it thought.
