Which is the greatest thing ever, folks. I add in some iron and vitamin C when I feel sluggish. I really notice a difference when I skip any of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-vitamins-do-you-take-and-why#post-2158016 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 09:10:46 +0000 Greentea 2158016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take prenatals for family planning and breastfeeding, fish oil with vitamin d3, and I always forget my probiotic (because it is in the fridge). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-vitamins-do-you-take-and-why#post-2157974 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 08:46:56 +0000 snowjewelz 2157974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm almost 5 mo pp and still take prenatal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-vitamins-do-you-take-and-why#post-2157870 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 07:56:29 +0000 MrsBrewer 2157870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only take a prenatal every day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-vitamins-do-you-take-and-why#post-2157852 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 07:40:45 +0000 travellingbee 2157852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on a prenatal and vitamin D because I'm deficient. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-vitamins-do-you-take-and-why#post-2157742 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 00:07:51 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 2157742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take a multi and fish oil. I'm skeptical about a lot of vitamins on the market, one reason being stuff like this - <a href="http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/02/03/new-york-attorney-general-targets-supplements-at-major-retailers/?_r=0" rel="nofollow">http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/02/03/new-york-attorney-general-targets-supplements-at-major-retailers/?_r=0</a>. Lack of oversight makes it hard to figure out which ones are truly legit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-vitamins-do-you-take-and-why#post-2157735 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 23:50:52 +0000 blackbird 2157735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A multi, a prescription insanely high dose folic acid-because my body doesn't absorb it like others, so I need more to get more, and a fish oil. I can't tell the difference when I take them, really. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-vitamins-do-you-take-and-why#post-2157679 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 22:05:06 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2157679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take 5000mg of vitamin d because I'm severely deficient, as are most people in new york probably! Also a b complex because I'm very deficient in that according to a recent physical. My doctor (who likes homeopathic remedies) also suggested Ashwagandha for my fatigue. </p> <p>What do you take and why? Can you tell the difference when you take them? </p>
