A big handful, that's for sure. Multivitamin, D, b12, b complex, c, Calcium, Omega 3 and 6. Took them faithfully for 6 months and blood work came out well. I am continuing to take the same cocktail daily.

B12 injection 1 per month, calcium chew ,iron 16mg, adult vitacrave multi gummy for men.

Doctor in support group told story of woman that had taken none of the vitamins and then was having severe coordination problems and came to find out why. Must take the dailys.

also I chose D3 2000ui, CoQ10, to whats there.

Anyone have to take Calcium citrate instead of carbonate???

I take daily centerium chewable Multi vitimans and calcium chews. Monday, Wednesday and Friday I take B12 sub lingual, B1. The hardest for me is the Multi vitiman. For some reason the Multi vitiman makes me feel a bit of nausea.

You might try TJ High Potency adult chewable tablets. These are good tasting and had no trouble eating these when other multi caused nausea (tried Bariatric Advantage and Celebrate). If you eat 2 daily you get about 200% DV of everything. As said above labs were really good at 6 months.

T'snewstart, the gummy's I use are sweet and more palitable I think, a little like tiny sweet snack of sorts, not chalky at all.

Also I have found Bariatric Advantage chewable citrates to be really good. I order caramel flavor from Amazon every 10 days or so to fulfill 6 chews a day where each chew is 250 mg calcium. Works really well to take 2 of these an hour before eating 3 of your daily meals.

Ditto what ^ fiddle said. They taste pretty good, also.
