Has anyone started a Vitamin routine yet? What are the Vitamins your taking?

Doing researching I've notice a lot of people don't take the same kinds of vitamins.

What is your surgeon recommending? My surgeon wants me to take a minimum of 1000mg calcium citrate, Iron, Biotin, B12, and a multiple.

I am so glad you ask this.

I was wondering too what kind and when people take their Vitamins.< /p>

I have read that certain vitamins need to be taken together and some apart.

I would love some feed back on how different ones daily schedule of viatmins, meals, fluids etc go.

It all seems so overwhelming of when to do what. I know the docs will tell you but how does it

work in the real world (lol) what have you found that helps you keep on track?

I take a Centrum multi chewable, Iron, Vitamin D and Biotin in the morning when I wake up. In the evening another centrum along with my Calcium. My B12 I take via shot and give it to myself once a month.

I take my multi Vitamin and chewable Iron together in the morning. then at lunch or in the evening (depends if I forget at lunch) I take my calcium citrate, B12 sublingual, hair, skln and nails Vitamin and magnesium. Dr only requires the B12, multi vitamin and the calicium, I added the rest. I was told to take the Iron and Calcium at seperate time.

I take my iron in the morning because I normally have fruit in my Protein shake and if I am correct taking iron with a Vitamin C or something like broccoli helps with the absorption of the iron. (at least that is what they told me when my kids were taking iron)
