Cool Does anyone take vitamins and/or herbs?

[size=3][font=courier new][color=blue]If you so, what kind do you take? Do you find it helps with pcos symptoms? I am thinking of starting on a multivitamin and maybe some chlorella. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.[b]

Default Vitamins/Herbs

Hi,

I take a Multivitamin, Chromium, & flax seed oil. I have been taking Flax seed oil (liquid form, 1 Tbs/day) for 2 months now. I don't know if it has been a fluke but I have had AF that last 2 months. Hello, I haven't had AF in 5 years. Keep your fingers crossed.

Good luck!

Default Here's mine

I noticed a huge difference with this regimen plus healthy (lowcarb) eating and exercise. I even got pregnant (a miracle), which meant I had to stop the regimen. I'm just now getting back into all of this, but I take a prenatal instead of a regular multivitamin...

Multivitamin
Alpha Lipoic Acid (Chromium does the same thing - regulate metabolism)
B-50 complex (helped with every single symptom except excess facial hair)
Essential fatty acid complex (flaxseed or royal jelly does the same thing)
Vitamin C
Calcium with Magnesium and Zinc

I say definitely take the B-50! It changed everything for me...

taking flaxseed oil gelcaps, and drinking a chinese herbal beverage sheshe cao, it tastes like tea with honey it can help prevent pimples and rheumatism but if you have high sugar levels its not good for you.

I take Woman's One a Day Multi-vitamin, B-complex,calcium,flaxseed oil gel tabs.
And drink 1 cup of green tea everyday.

I've felt so much better since being on my vitamins.
