Vita Check

Jan 27, 2010

It's day 6 of taking the new vitamin/mineral regimine & i gotta say BOY DO I NOTICE A DIFFERENCE!!!
I have way more energy - Im literally zipping all over the office.
Im no longer waiting till the last minute to go potty & combining that trip w/ anything else I have to do while Im up. Im making several trips (be it to the bathroom, up the stair, or anywhere else). Furthermore, not only am i able to - i actually WANT to work out. 
**ugh!!  why didnt i put this 2 & 2 together six years ago!!!**


Here are the goods:
Combined C = 1500mg
(RDA for Females 19 and older, 75 mg of Vitamin C per day)
Combined D = 600iu = 15mcg
(RDA for Infants, children and adults up to 50 years of age - 5 mcg or 200iu of Vitamin D per day)
Total A (from the multi) = 10,000iu = 6000mcg
(RDA for Females 14 and older, 700 micrograms of Vitamin A per day)  
E-delta (from the multi) = 200iu= 180mg
(RDA for Males & females 14 years and older, 15 milligrams of Vitamin E per day)
Zinc (from the multi) = 15mg
(RDA for Females 19 years and older - 8  milligrams of Zinc per day)
I realize that the RDA reqs. were set in the 50's are represent the BARE MINIMUM a human being needs to ingest to sustain life. But from the looks of it - it looks like im doing pretty good.
