What vitamins (etc) do you take?

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.

Wow. Randomized placebo-controlled study shows significant memory and cognitive benefits of daily multivitamin use.

That's downright actionable.

I take a multi, CoQ10, fish oil, folic acid, a couple times a week I’ll take a B12,and a D3. The CoQ10 is due to statins and the folic acid to methotrexate.

@Copper’s wife was right.

@jon-nyc said in What vitamins (etc) do you take?:

If I had to give up one of my vitamins it would be that. I eat rather healthily and probably don’t need it even if it does work. The other stuff I have special reasons to need.

Same here.

Well after that study I definitely won’t give it up.

I'm losing weight, so I have started taking collagen to keep skin more elastic.

Good for you!

I’m finally adding back the weight I lost in the last 6-8 months. Harder workouts, a med change to stop some GI issues that were affecting my ability to absorb nutrients, and more frequent meals are helping me. I’m up 10 lbs since April.
