I take flaxseed capsules ,recommended by my homeopath 20 years ago or more,also vit D ,we're in Scotland and no one gets enough Vit D,currently taking Vit E for breast pain and sea weed capsules for brittle nails .SynchroSwimmer does Biotin work? My nails have been shocking for a couple of years ,split and break before they reach the end of my fingers and are a bit ridged .
I eat an excellent diet (a bit too much of it if I’m honest) and have nothing wrong with me that needs supplementation. I do have an oestrogen implant twice a year but that’s just because I refuse to go through the menopause.
I like a supplement and vary them from time to time. At the moment I am taking flaxseed capsules (this one I have been taking for years for my joints) - a multi vitamin and mineral tablet and a magnesium tablet. Before any one points out that there will be magnesium in the multi vitamin and mineral tablet I have taken this into consideration already.
You're not bonkers, I take far more than you ..... but I have 9 illnesses I am juggling including multiple food intolerances and lack of pancreatic digestive enzymes, so I need them to make up for my imbalanced diet.
Am I alone in taking a lot of supplements? I’ve just filled my pill dispenser for the week and it made me think. Here’s the list..... Cinnamon for blood sugar, NAC for chest and C19 protection. Sage for hot flushes. Vitamin D for general wellness. D Mannose to prevent UTI’s Occasionally Vit B. Please assure me I’m not bonkers.
