Default Re: Intimidated and confused about Vitamins. Please help.

Thanks so much for the reply! Some follow-up thoughts...

My overriding confusing probably comes from the fact that we need to take so many vitamins on TOP of the multi-vitamin. I don't know much about supplements, so I worry about how much of each add'l supplement to take on top of what might be in the multi.

How much B complex should I take? Just follow instructions on the bottle?

Maybe I don't need extra Calcium. I was just following what a few others had said on some of the supplement threads. Not sure.

Okay, I'm a novice. Is the Fish Oil you take a capsule that I can buy at the drug store? Will it cover my need for Omega 3?

Again, new to this (sorry). Not sure what you mean by you get your flax from flax. In your food? As a pill?

And about the Acidopholus. I read another post that someone here takes it as an alternative to fiber or the other things you can take to improve your system. I think I could benefit from a "system helper."

My apologies for all of the beginner questions. You are so helpful! Thank you!!!
