I started taking a multi vitamin as soon as I could swallow them. My dad would give them to us every morning at breakfast. I continued to take them during the course of my life pretty consistently. As I became sicker I began adding extra things like high grade pro biotics, extra vitamin C throughout the day and occasional zinc and biotin.....and I need iron for awhile. I got sicker and my stomach was one of the worst symptoms. Got diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and then Bipolar shortly after. Found our fish oil was good so added that to the mix and also discovered articles which talked about the different things you should always look for in vitamins to make sure they will actually have any real potency in the body and the researched indicated very expensive vitamins should be purchased. I also discovered the vitamins upset my stomach problems further. Chewable vitamins were more gentle so I switched to those when available with the potency option intact. I also started taking prescription strength Vitamin D therapy several years back and need to go on and off depending on levels.

I have been out of supplements for awhile and low on funds to buy the type I'm convinced I need (which may or may not be true). I plan to get a good chewable Multi, chewable C, high quality fish oil and perhaps some Biotin and Vitamin D.
