Medical Forum / General / Nutrition / November 2005Basic question
I'm looking for a good multiple vitamin to take. I don't have a medical issue, I mostly eat healthy, and am trying to get back into working out regularly. I just need a "boost" to help me along and make sure I have what I need. Any suggestions?  SignatureWill~ "... so that's how liberty ends, in a round of applause."

A tablet marketed for "Women" would be your best bet, as it would include a little iron. Any major brand should do. Depending on your diet, one thing you might need more of are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids. These are generally lacking in most diets, and vitamins won't help. Consuming fatty fish or taking fish oil capsules will help with that. -- Jim Chinnis Warrenton, Virginia, USA jchinnis@alum.mit.edu > I'm looking for a good multiple vitamin to take.

There is no "single" pill that will provide well. :-) Cheers! SignatureOm.

Most foods contain multiple vitamins and minerals. -- Jim Chinnis Warrenton, Virginia, USA jchinnis@alum.mit.edu > I just need a "boost" to help me along and make sure I have what I need. Vitamins offer no such thing as an energy "boost." The single pill multi-vitamin should be avoided. They are most likely to cause stomach problems as well as passing out of your body undigested. What you want is one of those tiny cellophane multiple pill packages. They are expensive. And, basically are a convenience item for those who find convenience more important than saving money. Just thought that you might want to know. I meant a "vitamin boost" not an energy boost.. Info noted.. SignatureWill~ "... so that's how liberty ends, in a round of applause."
