Title: Easy to swallow vitamin
Post by: calfzilla on July 07, 2014, 06:23:59 PM
No homo but anyone recommend an easy to swallow multivitamin. Seems a lot of them are big horse pills. Prefer smooth coating but not required, thanks.

You could also look for chewables. I know there are multivits as chewables, but I don't know which brands.

We have chewable vit D3 tablets, and they're actually quite yummy with chocolate flavour.

Good idea however I am concerned that these may be bad for the teeth.  :-\

Much smaller than a typical vit C cap.

I haven't taken them in years, but AST's multi is/was a two-a-day that was smooth coated and of a manageable size.

I LOVE liver tabs - although, I think I developed an acute case of gout from them.

How do you like to prepare it?

Most people seem to gravitate towards the liver & onion type recipes.

My grandmother used to make a great liver pate'.  She used one of those old-fashioned meat grinders and ran it through 2 or 3 times til it was super smooth.  It had hard boiled eggs and olive oil, but that's all I remember ~ probably onions and garlic with other seasonings along with chicken livers.

pate is very easy... (not a shot at you GM... just encouragement for peeps to try)...

i make fois gras 3-4 times per year which is slightly harder but still super easy... not diet food...

Just regular pate'.  No easy access to goose or duck other than on a golf course  ;)

do not grind the liver... unnecessary and your grinder will always smell like liver
