What is your vitamin schedule?
I am taking 6 vitamins!! Yikes! My girlfriend only takes 2-Calcium Citrate and a multi-vitamin. Is anyone else taking 6?
Morning: Pantaprazole (for reflux-30 min. before breakfast), Multivitamin, Ca Citrate (500 mg), Magnesium,
Afternoon: Ca Citrate
Evening (7:00): Ca Citrate, Multivitamin, Vitamin D
Evening (9:00) iron w/ stool softener
Sunday (once a week): b12 (sublingual)
Is this okay? I have to space out the Ca Citrate and the iron, right?
Would love to see what you all are taking and when!
Thank you,
Pam
I take more than six!
Breakfast - multi, calcium citrate, D3 (three times a week), A (three times a week), zinc (twice a week)
Lunch- calcium citrate
Dinner- multi, calcium citrate
Bedtime- iron, vitamin C
Every Friday- B12 shot
So...eight different vitamins for me.

I do give myself the B12 shot. It's really easy. I was kind of squeamish about it at first but it's very quick and easy and doesn't hurt. It would be a huge pain, plus expensive, to go to my doc's office once a week for a shot.

I take two adult multi -vitamins daily. One at breakfast and one after dinner. I take 3 Ca (500 mg) throughout the day. I shoot for the meals but don't always remember them. Check with your doctor before changing your vitamin intake. I started with one a day but my blood work said I needed more.
Good luck, Jim
