who takes supplements? (1 Viewer)

[Ranger Stacie]

does anyone know, is it true if you take calcium tablets in conjuction ith iron tablets they react against eachother and its not good?

 

[melsc]

I don't see why it would, I take them together

 

[AntiHyper]

I take multivitamin (general wellbeing) and calcium tablet (you need calcium for muscle movement apparently).
I only 1 a day when the pack says you could take 2 a day.

does anyone know, is it true if you take calcium tablets in conjuction ith iron tablets they react against eachother and its not good?

Umm no, but it's just that the digestion system prioritise calcium over iron so it would be somewhat bogus to take iron at the same time. Also, calcium is naturally a more reactive metal than iron :uhhuh:.

I take vitamin c and e

I get sick a lot so I take c to help me get better quicker. If I get a sore 8 out of 10 times it gets inected and leaves a scar so I take vitamin e and zinc to help gt rid of the scarrs. man I get infected sores a lot I dunno what it is... prolly cos I do a lot of running around running errans (sp?) and also I go to some o my friends houses and sometimes play footy or whatever... depends I guess I duno but yeah thats why I take vitamins etc.

It doesnt get infected if I take the vitamins so I guess rigth now I dont get a lot of infected sores at all but Im saying if I stopped then yeah

food > supplements.

Yes, that's the way to go!! =]

But I still take a few myself. They include:
+ acidophillus (Inner Health dairy free);
+ quick fibre plus - which I sprinkle on top of my cereal;
+ flaxseed oil (GoodHealth brand);
+ women's multi (Swisse)

cbf with the rest anymore.

food > supplements.

totally, in most cases, and it has the benefit of being cheaper.

 

[Ranger Stacie]

[fnkychk]

This is what I take:

* Zinc (25mg)
* Iron (5mg)
* An occasional calcium tablet with (250mg calcium and 50mg magnesium)
* Spirulina

It seems like everybody is taking something.

I take iron supplements because I'm rather anemic.
I need to have blood tests every two or so months. It's irritating.

If you don't eat well or exercise, no amount of supplements will make you healthy enough to prevent sickness.
