I take Pharmaceutical Grade vitamins only Pure Encapsulations or Thorne Research multis when I used to take them, I heard its actually better just to take a Multi Mineral since most people are deficient in minerals.


B Vitamins are easy to get and a lot of the cheaper multies just load up with b vitamins its why you got that highlighter piss when you take them.

B vitamins are easy to get if you eat enough red meats or eggs.

None. I've tried a few years and years ago like animal pack and orange triad, plus basic ones. All of them are chit. The ones geared towards lifters just make you piss green and neon.

I eat majority whole foods including meat, milk, vegetables, fruit, rice, potatoes, etc.

I individually take vitamin C (500mg morning and 500mg night), 5,000IU vitamin D3 with Vitamin K2 every morning unless I'm in the sun all day, and at night on the days I lift I take Zinc/Magnesium/Calcium pill.

My issue is I might not be eating enough fruits and veggies, don't know if I have a deficiency. Tried supplementing Zinc before and threw up every time so gave up on it.

Yea that means you either took it on an empty stomach (don't) or have low stomach acid. Before I realized I had h. pylori (bacterial stomach infection and low stomach acid), within 1 min. of taking zinc I threw up in my mouth.

Just take it after dinner or meal before bed. Or figure out ways to increase your stomach acid naturally.

Also eat more fruits and veggies. These were all game changers for me. Do you get acid reflux/heartburn a lot?

All multis will make you piss green and neon. It’s the riboflavin, that’s normal. It has nothing to do with any other vit/min in those formulas.

Glad to see someone taking K2 along with their D.
I probably banged your mom.

Eat the whole animal like a real man.

Both times I took zinc was after a big meal. Fuk nausea, I did not want to try a third time. Also, the throwing up wasn't in my mouth, this was puking my entire dinner in the toilet type of vomiting.

Acid reflux is pretty rare for me and is usually almost instantly gone if it flares up.

Zinc is very hard on an empty stomach for sure. It use dot give me cramps at night.

Get a multi mineral, most minerals come from veggies, if you are not eating enough greens you likely have a mineral deficiency as a stated above. Magnesium is one of the most deficient nutrient in Americans, I eat a lot of Spinach, Also potassium I eat a lot of nuts like Pistachios also bananas.

The thing is in order to refuel your body with these nutrients it takes time.

Do you look at the mineral deficiency symptoms lists, how many of those do you check off?

Stopped taking a multi and just take Vitamin D. Feel the same or better, though I also eat a fortified cereal that basically has ground up multi in it. Figured my vitamin was redundant so I quit, but I don't get much sun and added some D.

I used to take Mega Food multivitamins pretty good, you only have to take two tabs, some of those others you gotta take 4 or 6.

Yea I know I was just reiterating that is all it did. Never felt right after taking them.

What I do now makes me feel fantastic and I almost never get sick. The D3 with K2 was the game changer. Used to take just D3 until I realized K2 was necessary.

Rainbow Light Men's gets high ratings and is cheap, so i have been using it lately with meal#1 or a shake.
No Issues and i get the added coverage if the eating isn't perfect.

Red meat and unprocessed veggies, gave up all supplements two years ago and it was the best thing I’ve ever done health wise.

Was happy with Orange Triad for years but now it's unavailable in Canada for some reason. Couldn't find it anywhere so I had to settle for Animal Pak.

Are frozen veggies good? I usually eat frozen spinach and brussel sprouts, brocoli and stuff like that. Ill steam or boil them.

I also eat a lot of bell peppers apparently those are top dog for antioxidants without the fructose.

“The key nutritional aspects are earth-grown nutrients. That’s real food. That’s whole food. I like to say no pills, no powders, no potions. We don’t need that garbage. We need real food. Real food has sustained life on this planet since the dawn of time. Wild caught lean meats – nothing preserved, no chemicals, lots of vegetables, I’m a huge produce fan – because that is life. And then complex carbohydrates in the form of quinoa, brown rice, sweet potatoes – things like that. And we eat! I make sure they’re constantly eating a tremendous amount of highly usable foods.” – Mike Dolce

I sometimes take B12 tablets if I haven't been eating foods fortified with B12 for a while. Idk why you'd need to take multivitamins though if you can get all your stuff from food.

Got my blood test a couple months ago and the only thing I was a little low in was phosphate. Doc said to eat more nuts or fish.

My diet is mostly plant based but I eat seafood (like scallops and oysters) every couple of months.
