The only one I use is Centruim, and all my vit levels are good as per blood testing when using it. So that keeps me happy enough.

I have to say I WAS happy with my vitamin until I read this! Lisa, I'm going to check these out :D

My hair just go shorter and shorter. It never seemed to grow and I had to trim the dry ends.

I can't attribute all of this new hair growth the Oil of Olay. A good balanced diet and trying to heal a body that has been way out of wack for many years....has it's benefits. I am pleased.

I use Natrol "My Favorite Multiple" Original (without iron). My body is sometimes sensitive to vitamins and this seems to sit well with me.

I use MultiTech Isotonix by Market America... My brother in law is a rep... I love it, and it's labeled gluten-free

Since being disgnosed with C/D, malabsorption and osteoporosis in Nov. 2005, I went straight to the Health Food store and explained my situation. They suggested a liquid vitamin for faster and better absorption. It's called Life Solultions and it's considered a Whole Food blend. It's yummy tasting, the 32 oz. jar runs for $60. but lasts 2 1/2 months at $24.00 a month. What's everybody else's vitamins costing per month? And while we're on the subject; is any one Calcium tablet better than the other. Know you want Vit. D. included.

Thanks, Dianna

Centrum is like 1/10th that price. :)

As for calisum, my doc told me to get Caltrate-D. I got the Kroger version of it.

Freeda vitamins

Freeda quintabs, good mix of vitamins and minerals and not hard to swallow.

My MIL put a slice of apple in a jars of water, then added one of every kind of multivitamen she could think of. It was amazing, what happened. Centrum vitamens got all gooey and yucky. She said that the acid in the water is supposed to be what happens in our body when we take a vitamen? I don't know the scientific research on this.

The best were USANA multivitamens, and Lame Advertisement. She had some store brand ones too, they didn't look to good either, but were better than Centrum.

Two questions:

Is there only one oil of olay vitamin? Don't want to pick the wrong one.

Does anybody know if the orange chewable Centrum for the US is ok?

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
