Im constantly finding bruises on my legs and arms! Anyone have this problem? I drink my Water everyday and take my Multivitamin as well. This must be lack of something. What do I do?

Unless you are on blood thinners, or even use lots of advil, then that is odd. I'd probably ask my PCP if I were you.

Iron. You're probably not getting as much iron because you're not eating much. meat, fruit, leafy greens all have lots of iron. Good luck!

I chew Flintstones Complete with CHOLINE. They are in a orange box, and the Choline is important.

All of us at my clinic are put on these Vitamins Bypass, Band, and Sleeve etc....

I have tried them from Costco's, but they just don't have the kick, that the original, by Flintstones have.

I take 4 a day, Every Day ! I have NO sign of Bruising at all, and I feel PEPPY !

If I were to go without them, I would be bruised, and tired.

I know what I am talking about... Or I wouldn't say sh*t about it. I been doing these Vitamins for 5 yrs..

So I know they work...

But you must buy the COMPLETE with CHOLINE, or it won't work....

Again they are in the Orange Box.

Try them for about 1 month, then look and see how your bruising is gone.

Even my PCP can't believe it, but,,,, she's not a specialist.

Some supplements (fish oil and ginkgo) have blood thinning properties that can cause you to bruise more easily. steroids cause the skin to thin making it bruise more easily, not just pills & injections but also topicals. Are you using anything like Cortisone, Hydrocortisone or Prednisone for anything? Easy bruising can also be a sign of diabetes.

We weigh more then the average person. So instead of 1 or 2, I double it to 4, and it works fine.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
