How Many Pills / Vitamins Do You Take A Day?

How many pills or vitamins do you take every day? I’ve known people who take zero, and heard of others taking up to 300 a day (absolutely amazing). So let’s hear from you! How many do you take?

  • Do cigarettes, beer and pizza count as vitamins? Oh, in that case none then.

    Although, seriously, I hear a lot of that junk either doesn’t work, you don’t need it or it can even be bad for your health. All in moderation I guess…

  • I take a multi-vitamin and Glucosamin, but typically not daily, cause I forget to take them… Maybe, there’s a vitamin to help with my memory :)

  • 2 Cod Liver Oil Pills
    1 Mutli-Vitamin
    1 1000 mg Vitamin C (ester-C baby!)

    Occasionally, I’ll take a charcoal pill to detox all of the shyte I eat/drink.

  • I have a follow up question which I didn’t think to ask until now. Since we have a client that actually sells vitamins and supplements.

    How do you discover and decide to try a new brand of vitamins/supplements?

  • I take a multi every day. Other than that it’s just good food and a lot of coffee. btw – coffee is an essential vitamin/mineral/nutrient.

  • I take six a day (I take the Xtend-Life male vitamin supplement). I also take about six to nine other supplement pills consisting of Bilberry for my eyes and three capsules of Bee Pollen. Total is about 15. I do notice a difference — especially when I take Bee Pollen. It’s a great supplement.

    Best,

  • None at the moment.
    I’ve never noticed any difference in how I feel when I try different supplements, so I never continue taking them.
