Hi,
I've always been a strong believer in taking supplements even before I was dx with probable MS. I eat organic when I can and this year I have a small garden with a few veggies and herbs. Below are the supplements I take with the brand names. I am worried I may take too much of something or not enough, but I try to do my research and get it right.
I apologize for how long this will get with everything listed.
Now brand Lecithin - 1200 mg
Garden of Life Perfect Food - Raw Green Super food - 1/4 serving (2 caps) Probably best to look up fact sheet on their website.
Pioneer Vitamin C complex - 500 mg (the complex is made of Calcium, magnesium, zinc, manganese and potassium ascorbates as well as Amla Fruit extract and citrus bioflavonoid complex)
Bluebonnet Calcium Citrate Magnesium Vit. D3 (250mg Calcium, 100 iu Vit D3, 100 mg Magnesium)
Nature's Plus Super B-50-one capsule (all the B-vitamins)
Solaray Potassium Asporotate (combo of aspartate, citrate, orotate)- 99 mg (I take this as I am sensitive to electrolyte issues and I will not drink sports drinks due to the sugar/HFCS)
Solaray Magnesium Asporotate (same type of combo as the Potassium) - 400 mg
Now Krill Oil - 2000mg
Now Ubiquinol CoQH-CF - 50mg
Now ALA - 250mg
Now Acetyl-L Carnitine - 500mg
Now Vitamin D3 - 4,000 IU (in the winter as I have been outside every sunny day this summer riding my bicycle and have the funny tan lines to show) - Spring D levels were 65
Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Multi Vitamin - 4 caps (1 serving) Probable best if you look at the fact sheet on their website as it is too much to type here
Then I take 3 herbals supplements:
Nettle for allergies - 300mg)
Horsetail for silica (needed for the calcium to go to your bones, not elsewhere) - 880mg
Dandelion root and milk thistle to support my liver as I take Depakote which is notorious for liver issues. - 2 caps (combination of stuff)
I do hope this isn't too confusing and somebody can help me find out if I am doing this right or I take too much of something or not enough.
Thanks in advance.
