I have been using berocca- an Water souble Vitamin and mineral tablet. I also had a b12 shot a few weeks ago

Wondering if there is a better vitamin I could try??

there are a lot of mention of kids vitamins- are these just as good?? know they are a lot cheaper

Any recommendations would be most welcome

I use Berocca and I love it! 50 cents per day roughly doesn't seem outrageous to me. Now, it is not a multivitamin, but I don't have iron issues, etc. I believe if you take a Flintstone chewable or gummy you have to take 2 as opposed to the kid dose of just 1. That would make them cost a basically twice as much as if you were buying them for a child.

I take a Centrum (or store brand) chewable multivitamin for adults, liquid B12, Calcium and liquid Vitamin D drops (only in the winter).

I just had my annual blood work completed and everything came back normal.

I take centrum adult chewable and B-12 + biotin sublingual I ordered from bariatric choice. Doc told me chew a couple tums for calcium

Tried the Bariatric Advantage brand or Vita Band.... They are superior and designed specifically for us... but they taste like sh%#&. I literally gag. They have several flavors and I got the watermelon. They are so chalky I can't imagine any of them tasting good. So then I tried the Centrum chewables. Okay.... At least I didn't gag. But I have to say, I like the Flintstones the best. They are inexpensive, so it doesn't matter if I have to take two. I also take biotin, and Caltrate petites with D. they are smaller and don't bother me going through the band. they dissolve quickly too. I no longer need my BP meds, but doc has me on Maxide as a precaution, so I have to supplement with potassium as well to prevent leg cramps. Biotin has NOT helped with my hair loss. I'm quite upset about that. Been taking it for well over a year with no new hair growth. Doc said to try a zinc supplement as well. going to get that this weekend. I've got my fingers crossed.

Thanks guys, I am going supp shopping monday so thought would get some ideas. Think will try the Centrum out its often on offer

I use All One Original Vitamin & Mineral formula. It is a powder. I add it to my yogurt, juice, latte or whatever I'm having for Breakfast and lunch.

I love it! You can see all the nutrients in it here: http://store.nexternal.com/shared/StoreFront/default.asp?CS=allone&StoreType=BtoC&Count1=277294337&Count2=194434762&ProductID=4&Target=products.asp

Emergen-C powder is good in the winter time during cold and flu season. I mix it with half water and half O.J. Seems to help fight colds etc. and it's high in most all vitamins.

My doctor also suggested adding zinc to my vitamins to help with hair loss. The other thing I use that seems to have helped is the Nioxin(sp?) shampoo. My hair was already really fine and kinda thin so when I started losing I freaked out.
