Talk to me about multivitamins...

What do you take?

Since I'm doing Weight Watchers I feel like I need to be taking one. I want something reasonably priced and good for women.
 
I'm taking a Women's one from Trader Joes. It's a once a day vitamin. (Anything more than that and it's just too many pills to swallow!)
 
I found out talking about vitamins is like talking about politics or religion. haha... :D

I have been taking Eniva Vibe... but am looking at others that I have been researching on that are higher quality.... Eniva just got dinged on not having what it says it's suppose to have... their company is having management issues. I stay clear of anything that is a name brand like centrium or one a day... oh, if you knew some of the fillers they put in those things and why... yikes! ;)

I take a prenatal vitamin. I'm not pregnant, but my doctor said it was probably one of the best things that I could take (at least, for my personal body/health, I'm sure it varies from person to person). I've been taking a prenatal since I was 16, and will probably continue to take it, even after I finish breastfeeding.
 
I take a gummy one a day (but you really take two), a vitamin d supplement, calcium, and biotin. all once daily.
 
i don't take anything b/c i can never remember to do it ... but, i did have to laugh because when i'm doing weight watchers i am actually eating so many more veggies and fruits than normal that it's one of the times i feel like i DON'T need a vitamin LOL!
 
LOL Dana! I see that point.

I know I'm not getting the calcium in because dairy products are so high in points so I tend to shy away from them. I just thought if I'm going to take something for calcium, I might as well make it something that includes more than that.

I've been taking Calcium Citrate Petites. They are a little bit smaller pills than normal calium pills. They are so much easier to swallow than those HUGE things. I buy them at Walgreens.

There's loads of calcium in green veggies, like broccoli and kale, too. ;)

THE best Vitamins

Usana www.usana.com

Not made to Food standards like other vitamins & minerals but made to Pharmaceutical standards, voluntarily too, which are the highest grade of any standard. Fantastic. You just need the antioxidant / multi vitamin pack and I take 2 daily of each and it lasts two months. When I feel like I need anything else I get the other supplements like Vit A, E, Calcium, Magnesium etc.....
