thanks for the info on what type of vitamines to take but how do you count the carbs on them? I also take chondrotin/glucosamine for joints. thanks i n advance

I buy the Naturemade Womens 50+ (anything for 50+ contains no iron) and you can get those anywhere.

Ummmmmmm, I've never counted the carb for my vitamin...but then again, the naturemade ones don't have a lot of "filler" in them. Unless you're taking a horse pill, the carb count, if there IS one, is negligible. Just make sure your vitamin isn't one of those Flinstones vitamins with sugar! LOL

aaawww....no Flintstones vitamins? That was the highlight of my day! Just kidding...

Thanks for the vitamin question, I was wondering that myself

Sentury-Vite at Walmart. Works great. I also take Glucosamine/Chondroitin .. OMG, they are THE BOMB ..

As a 50 year old runner for 3 years, I've developed some arthritis and I can tell ya, Glucosamine WORKS .. its amazing.

I take a multi-vitamin that is a drug store brand. I make sure they are chelated though. I also take calcium (Costco...great price).

I looked up chelated and got this definition for a Chelate: "A chemical compound in the form of a heterocyclic ring, containing a metal ion attached by coordinate bonds to at least two nonmetal ions."

OK, so I really don't know what this means or why this would be important in a multi-vitamin. Can you give more info please?
