Ahem.
Do you take regular vitamin suppliments? If so, which ones do you take? Do you enjoy taking them, or do they taste absolutely horrific (Eg - Cod Liver Oil, Cranberry Tablets).
I drink Actimel every day to keep my immune system up to scratch. That's about it.
I have Spongebob shaped vitamins. :)
Never.
I have a good diet, now that I'm old enough to choose my own food, make knowledgable choices about what to eat and when, so these days I never take vitamin suppliments.
I used to take super-ted vitamin tablets when I was 8 or so. They were tasty and come in one, yes one, shape!
When I'm older and start noticing joints becomeing less supple I plan to endure the cod-liver oil treament. I really appreciate my body and plan to keep it in good condition.
You'd better be freaking kidding. xDQuote:

I figure there's enough vitamins in a bowl of cereal that if I eat three a day and barely anything else, I'll stay perfectly healthy.
I did when I was younger. I didn't think it did much for me, so I stopped bothering.
I want to but I'm too lazy to buy some xD The Flintstone ones were awesome, and the gummy bear ones weren't bad, either.
Yeah, I do.
Strawberry Fizzy Iron/B12 tablets. I'm pondering just getting iron shots, though.
Yay for fortified cereals and soy milks!
The last time I took vitamins they were the flintstones ones and I was probably 8 or 9. I think they're still in the cupboard too, which is nasty. :D
I agree with Psy. I try to eat a balanced diet, and I can usually tell by which part of my body is freaking out what I'm not getting enough of. So then I figure out how to balance it again. :)
My vitamins comes from my food. You also have to note that some nutrients work better with your body when taken with other ingredients in the food...rather than just take a single tablet.
For some people who have liver disease, taking a multi-vitamin can be harmful since most vitamins have 100% daily value of iron. You can overdose on some vitamins too, even with one tablet since you get some of your vitamins and nutrients from the foods that you eat.
So no, I don't take my vitamins. Also, I don't think you're suppose to chew vitamins like Centrum...they taste NASTY. Although the tablet is thick, I think you should swallow it.
used to take vitamin C when i was young....tasted nice as i recall, then later i used to take these thick multivitamin pills they didnt do much so i stopped anyway...Im a pretty healthy eater.... i think!?
Nope - but i do make sure i have enough citrus fruits daily to keep the Vit C up
I drink orange juice every morning. That's good enough I think.

Vitamins are for people who think they are unhealthy. Therefore I do not take them. Yup, fit as a fiddle me-*dies*
I swear I have Spongebob vitamins. Mom found them at Coscos or something. xDQuote:

Levian: They're like these every day pills with nutriants and stuff to make you healthy.
And so the art of sarcasm seems to be misunderstood once again. :)
edit: just call me Hank :cool:
Sorry... Hank. :cool:
I forgive and forget, cus I'm a great person :cool:
I take the odd Berocca if I haven't been able to eat particularly well, of if I had a few drinks the night before. If I'm eating well, though, taking extra vitamins is largely pointless.
I drink Zertec for my allergies. Or is it...Zyrtec? Well, however you spell it...
