Cod liver oil plus a multi vitamin tablet
Blue green algae capsule Milk Thistle Acidophilus plus Evening Primrose And a Vitamin C and Zinc pastille Like Kirk i eat a lot of garlic dishes so have stopped taking garlic supplements. (I also have a glass of red wine or dark chocolate (green and blacks) as their chocolate hasn't been dutched!) |

pretty much all of them have zero science behind them. You are really just taking them based on marketing, ie being hoodwinked
vitamins have been almost wholly debunked now even fish oil etc |

Cod liver - Joints Multi Vitamins - to make sure i get what i need! Acidophilus - Good bacteria (i suffer with reflux and have had immunity issues so hopefully these help) Milk Thistle - gives liver support Blue Green Algae - to fight inflammation, b vits, antioxidant Evening primrose - pms, endometriosis Vit C and Zinc pastille to boost immunity. I've suffered with chronic fatigue and gluten sensitivity for years and have bouts of inflammation, as well as past endometriosis. My cholesterol is on the high side some of the above can reduce cholesterol. I suspect my immunity is low after years of insomnia, and suffer health anxiety. I honestly don't know if they are working, i will let you know in 6 months! Sometimes i can walk miles and then other times i can barely walk a block! Drs are useless though, that's why i'm trying vitamin and mineral supplements. |

Vitamin deficiencies in some people can be extremely dangerous, some people can't absorb as much vitamins and minerals into the body as others due to certain illnesses or allergies (I have a citrus allergy so take vit c) others are not getting enough into the body due poor diet or to being vegetarian and not consuming enough animal product etc. B deficiencies have been tested and linked to chronic fatigue, severe anaemia, Alzheimer's, skin conditions and lots more. (you know your Lunulas (halfmoons) on your fingernails? if they are gone then theres a good chance you have a B vitamin deficiency) Vitamin C is great for repairing tissue in the body, skin disorders, healthy bones and teeth and so on. Vitamin D which has already had it's daily recommendation raised by the Institute of Medicine is well documented in protecting bones and helps people with illnesses such as osteoporosis and similar. These are just small examples. Just because it's something you don't understand doesn't mean it's a placebo. And most vitamins are used by the body as needed then the rest is disposed of safely anyway so there's no real harm in taking what you think you need. You just keep enjoying your whiskies and let others do what they feel is best for them. Hey maybe you should get some vitamin C into you to help out your poor liver |
