WHAT VITAMINS DO YOU TAKE OR NEED?
« on: August 10, 2006, 04:20:06 PM »
I been taking twinlabs coq10 formula for 70$ a month. It is now becoming very expensive and I am thinking to just switch to flinstones! What are the main vitamins I should look for and how much for a natural is recommended.


Mods please leave on main board for a while or else...

a "man" with as little muscle on your body as you have should be fine with half of a flintstone.

CoQ10 is a very very expensive supplement.  If you can afford to add it to your regime - great; there's a lot of good things about it. The antioxidant effects are well documented.

For athletes, the science does not consistently support it as an "ergogenic performance aid". As an antioxidant, especially in combination with other antioxidants like vitamins C and E, CoQ10 appears to be beneficial. For heart patients, it appears to be especially beneficial, particularly in those who are taking cholesterol lowering meds.

Totally disagree.  Everyone should be on a good basic multi - regardless of their diet.

co q 10 is a vitamin like substance that oxidizes cell tissue and produces cellular energy.

it's one of my favorite antioxidants along with Alpha Lipoic Acid, Grape Seed Extract, Pycnogenol (french pine bark extract), C and E

True. A good nutrition should be sufficient. No need for a multi vitamin.

Multi-vitamins are synthetic garbage. You're system can't even absorb that shit. Numerous studies have shown that people taking a Multi are in no better health than people who don't.

Findings may not apply to use of commercial multivitamin supplements by the general U.S. population. CONCLUSIONS: Evidence is insufficient to support the presence or absence of benefits from use of multivitamin and mineral supplements to prevent cancer and chronic disease.

I'm not Danish either.
