citrus fruits (oranges, lemons etc) green leafy vegetables berries (blackberries, strawberries, redcurrants etc) tomatoes green and red peppers broccoli sprouts potatoes with skins melon Vitamin C vitamin helps to heal wounds, keeps the immune system strong, keeps your teeth and gums healthy, it also helps the body absorb iron and folic acid. Studies have shown that it plays an important role in the antioxidant defence system, destroying free radicals thereby reducing the risks of degenerative diseases like cancer and slowing down cell damage and the ageing process.

What is a good vitamin regimen With all the different reports
of which vitamins and
supplements that are good for
promoting health and
longevity, it gets a little
confusing. I want to know what
are the more important
Vitamins and supplements that
should be taken by a healthy
woman, in her late 20's.
Muti-vitamins are no good,
they have low absorption rates
and tend to be pretty useless
as per my doctors opinion.
I am already taking B-complex,
and vitamin E, but I would
like to add D, C and anything
else that is important for
women's health.
So if someone can steer me in
the right direction of which
to take and when is best to
take them, it would be
appreciated.
I wanted to add to this in
case it was unclear. I work
out regularly and eat very
healthily already and have for
some time so the only reason I
asked the question is because
I want to start taking
precautions for the future,
such as bone health etc. I
have the bases pretty well
covered but unfortunately,
foods don't always carry the
same benefits as the vitamins.
Thanks for all the great
advice but I was looking for
more of a exact
vitamin/regimen for someone
already knowledgeable in
nutrition and fitness. Thank
you all though, Yahoo answers
is such a great life tool!

i know your doctor said multi vites suck but those are the ones to take. if you take many different vitamins you may be getting too much of a vitamin because they may contain more than one vitamin in each pill. and honestly the best vitamins to take are prenatal vitamins.. and thats for men too!!!! i would look up the daily values for vitamins and try to find something that is close to that. also one of the best ways to ensure you get all your vitamins is to eat a well balanced diet with veggies of all different colors and different colored fruits, they contain different types of vitamins. a multivitamin will be enough. to ensure adequate absorption try taking it in the morning on an empty stomach before breakfast |

What are good vitamin to take I didn't even realize that
vitamins could help with that
sort of thing until a friend
said something. If each trait
has a separate vitamin, please
list which vitamin belongs to
each of the listed traits.
Thanks.

The B-vitamins are known to be mental calmers and mood stabilizers. In fact vitamin B deficiencies can lead to various nervous and psychiatric disorders. The key vitamins arre B1-thiamin, B6-niacin and B12. I would get a high -potency B complex that contains a range of B vitamins for optimum results. There is also a sublingual tablet made by Trivita which contains vitamins B12 and B6. Since you take them sublingually by letting the tablet dissolve under your tongue they are able to enter your bloodstream directly without having to go through the whole digestive process. It's like getting a B12 shot without the pain. When I take these regulary I notice more stable moods and an overall calmness. the number to Trivita is 1-800-991-7116. (or trivitia.com) |
