I hope you feel better soon, that sounds rough.
I probably ask weird questions but my doc left me dangling so I am getting a new one! But I am trying to figure out what most here think important!
Thx!!!

Is there any vitamins you guys have taken that improve energy levels?

New Chapter brand which is expensive but I order from vitacost.com has one called pure energy and it worked for me. I am now taking just the one a a day cause I take other pills and I hate to! One a day is good start for me!

I take: liquid vitamins and liquid minerals because they are absorbed by the body at a minimum of a 80% rate vs. pills which are absorbed at a rate of under 20%. I have them on auto-ship.

I also take liquid vit.d3, probiotics, certain amino acids in powder, slippery elm powder.

I started taking Kyolic garlic capsules with Candida Cleanse a month ago and have been doing so well with that I dropped my other supplements except probiotics. I will still take Vitamin D and l glutamine, just not in a regular basis.

HI insofl what brand of liquid do u take?I take floradix. i need a liquid mineral
Posted 11/2/2012 2:40 PM (GMT 0)
PB8 Probiotic (chose it b/c it's available at a local supplement store and has a pretty high count and diversity)

Prenatal vitamin (will switch back to a regular multi vitamin once baby girl is here and I'm done nursing)

Vitamin D during the winter months -- in summer, I'm out in the sun enough. I need to talk with my OB about taking it during pregnancy.

therearemiracles,

I take Active Liquid Minerals, and also Active Liquid Vitamins. I get them both from www.cureforulcerativecolitis.com as they have a 25% discount coupon on these products.

I attribute my great blood work throughout my past flaring and lots of blood loss to supplementation with these products.

How are you doing?

Hope this helps.

right now just Calcium+D w/o Magnesium

next I will add in some Fish Oil but I want to stabilize a bit first before I do so I can figure out if it has any good/bad effects.
