I have never taken so many vitamins or supplements before, but I can already tell the one day that I didn't take them that I felt different. Plus all these natural - God created additions to my working out can only assist me. These are just what I take, but there is a whole slew of others out there. If you have a really great health food store like we do, they usually have people in there who will help to educate you on a supplement before taking it. So I hope this helps! :)

HEY HEY HEY!!! I do the Multi vitamin, the b vitamins, the flax oil and the fish oils. I take them once a day but after reading the bottle, I need to take them at least twice a day. I also take vitamin C and echinacea for my immune system just because I have been so sick lately.
I also feel a HUGE difference when I don't take them. Thanks for sharing what you take Sarah!
Now, what protein bar do you eat again??? I wanna get them for after my workouts. :)
Love ya,
Jen
I'm just curious, Sarah, did you get this cocktail from someone at the health food store? Tom? Your Dr? I take Vitamins and was thinking about trying Q10. It has tons of health benefits. One thing I can tell you is Pico was not a good supplement for me. I took it years ago when I was just a little overweight and a gym rat. It made my heart race like crazy and I was advised to stop using it. :) Just wanted you to be aware of that :)
I use real flax seeds, (ground) I like the added nutty flavor they bring to foods.
Over the 14 months I've been eating ONLY whole foods and trying to get lots of vitamins the old fashioned way as well. Sometimes it seems so complicated, don't you agree?
Love yourself today Sarah, you're worth it,
love and hugs,
Maggie
