If you only took one supplement what would it be?

I should say other than a vitamin. I'm trying to figure this whole supplement thing out...I added a one-a-day, cuz I knew I needed something for general health too and am SO OVERWHELMED BY CHOICES, figured I can't go to wrong... LOL. I want to add something for the next 6 mos and I'm not sure what...so tell me what one internal thing is your MUST have.

FYI...I'm leaning towards Flax seed or Aminos. Not that one replaces the other...

Other than vitamins and minerals (like iron), I would say spirulina is a must-have for me. It's a sea veggie, a great source of protein, B-12, iron and many other important vitamins and minerals. It's a complete food.

ALIVE! By Natures Way.

Any Omega 3-6-9 blend ... it's great for your hair, skin & nails.

 

[CAPlush]

Total Raisin Bran

Honestly, I'd stick with a nice multi vitamin. I am loving the Viactiv tablets (not the chews) right now. I would consider a daily that is labeled for hair and skin because they tend to have extra MSM and biotin and other things.

Ditto. I just picked up another bottle of this the other day. I use the NOW brand.

GNC Hair, Skin, Nails. I really need my MVT also.

Ok I missed the part - other than a vitamin. Okay well in that case, I'd say my MSM crystals.

 

[cutiebe2]

Flaxseed oil

 

[BrownSkin2]

B-50 complex... It has all of the b vitamins plus biotin. They work well together.

Thanks for the input ladies! I'm slowly narrowing things down...I'll be making a decision this week.

Flaxseed and Borage oil liquid combo. This besides my Kal enhanced energy multivitamin, this is what I would take.

 

[guesswho]

coral advantage the best vitamin ever!

Co-signing on spirulina - hands down, no questions about it...It is my favorite supplement and the one that I do not ever want to do without...

I just picked up a bottle of Natures Bounty Hair Skin and Nails Vitamin. It has iron, vitamins a and c, and biotin among other things.

Okay other than a vitamin, it would have to be Power-Herbs Hair formula.

 

[Tamrin]

[Hair Iam]

Here is a little bit of info on spirulina...

Many essential nutrients recommended by experts to help protect our bodies are concentrated in Spirulina. It contains the most powerful combination of nutrients ever known in any grain, herb or food.

World's highest beta carotene food reduces long term health risks. Spirulina beta carotene is ten times more concentrated than carrots. So even if you don't eat the recommended 4 to 9 servings of fruits and vegetables every day (most people eat only 1-2, including french fries), get your natural beta carotene insurance from spirulina to help support your body's defenses. 60% easy-to-digest vegetable protein without the fat and cholesterol of meat.

People are eating less meat and dairy protein because they want to lower fat, cholesterol, and chemicals in their diet. Spirulina is the highest protein food with all the essential amino acids and has only a few calories to keep your waistline where you want it.

A rare essential fatty acid is a key to health. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) in mother's milk helps develop healthy babies. Studies show nutritional deficiencies can block GLA production in your body, so a good dietary source of GLA can be important. Spirulina is the only other whole food with GLA.

Iron for women and children's health. Iron is essential to build a strong system, yet is the most common mineral deficiency. Spirulina is rich in iron, magnesium and trace minerals, and is easier to absorb than iron supplements.

High in Vitamin B-12 and B Complex. Spirulina is the highest source of B-12, essential for healthy nerves and tissue, especially for vegetarians.

Unusual phytonutrients for health and cleansing. Scientists are discovering the benefits of polysaccharides, sulfolipids & glycolipids, and the rainbow of natural pigments that give spirulina a deep green color. Green (chlorophyll), blue (phycocyanin) and orange (carotenoids) colors collect the sun's energy and power growth. Chlorophyll is a natural cleanser and is often referred to as nature's green magic.
