Question What's your vitamin mix?

Happy Monday - I'm in a great mood - lost 10 pounds and leaving tomorrow for vacation - still not at my goal weight but this 10 pounds has put me back in most of my clothes so I'm going nuts with "new" wardrobe...anyway on to my question

What vitamin mixes are you guys taking? We've just run out of about all our vitamins and we were taking
1 multivitamin
1 calcium (out)
1 B-complex (out)
2 C
2 chromium (out)
1 E
Acidophilus after meals (just me for suspected candidas overgrowth)

I'm exercising for about an hour 3 to 4 times a week cardio/weight training. And BF will be starting exercise this week.
I'm planning on going to health food store after work and would like to get your opinions on what I might be missing.

Carrie

What U listed seems to be what U need to be taking. Does the calcium have magnesium? If not I would add that. Also what about flax seed oil? It seems to be something everyone could use to get the omega-3 fatty acids.

Hi Carrie!

Have you read this thread?

I don't mean to cut the conversation short; I really enjoyed reading that thread and hope others will continue to add.

Unhappy What happened?

Thanks for the attached message link. I ended up getting the above list of vitamins, but after taking them - the next day, for about 3 or 4 hours I felt dizzy and light headed.

Has anyone any experience with feeling dizzy after taking vitamins? I take them at night - just can't stomach them in the morning. Maybe I should split them up but I don't know which ones might be a "dizzy" culprit.

Will probably just have to add one at a time and see which one gives me the trouble.

Carrie
