Vitamins and Minerals....
« on: Nov 26, 2020, 12:13:15 PM »
I have for years taken daily vitamins and minerals.  I am getting in a muddle with all the different small bottles .....and I am thinking of trying the one a day Complete formula of vitamines and minerals that can replace the ones I take. Seven seas offer a Well Woman one a day tab.  Any suggestions ? Anyone taking concumin or turmeric for pains ?  gmx

Would it help if you bought one of those boxes which has dividers for each day.  When I was taking a lot of pills, I found one helpful.

I am trying to find a Vitamins & minerals tablet to take just one a day.  I am looking for one that will suit my need.  I think It is made by Seven Seas, a company which I trust.  Then one is made by Holland & Barratt  and one by Boots.  I shall just have to read all about them and then choose. gmx

Taking turmeric for pain works for me I no longer take pain killers.

How much do you take? Do you take it regularly as a preventative measure, or o n an as and when needed basis?

Two a day morning and evening. They do take time to kick in.

Hugh.  Turmeric. How much do you take a day ? Does it really work ?  I read so much about it, and would like to try and see if I could have less pain. gmx

I take two a day. To be quite honest I did not think they would work, but it just dawned on me after a few weeks of taking them I wasn't taking my pain killers. I certainly would not stop taking your pain killers GM, just allow Turmeric to take over in there own good time.

I take Turmeric too Hugh, but it says only one a day and not to exceed stated dose. 
This is mine, perhaps they're a different strength to yours ?

Yours much stronger than mine which are 400mg. I will have to check yours out


I have ordered the ones you are using, it says for short term only so I will return to my weaker ones during the rest period.

I read a few years ago that Vitamin D is good for your lungs so I started taking it every morning.  It seems to have strengthened my nails too and it is now said to help with covid.
