Many people say pointless

Many research say pointless

But i take anyway

Doesnt cost that much

Who knows, maybe got micronutrients that i dont get from daily food

Malaysia cuisine as we know is crazy carb based

90% carbs 9% protein 1% others like fibre

I dont know la maybe placebo effect

I generally feel like i got better energy and sleep better when i take the pills

If forget, will feel like crap, then remember i forgot to take

If your clothing style is covered head to toe and you spend most of daylight hours indoors, consider vitamin d supplement. Yes, people cannot believe that in a tropical country like here, got Lots of malaysians with vitamin d deficiency.

1 capsule contains 1000mg fish oil or 600mg DHA & EPA combined.

No, it doesn't overdose if you want to use fish oil for recovery (from intense sports activities).

You can google it.

I personally tested it and it works.

I also taking Solaray 'Provide' which has Vitamins and Minerals.all the el-cheapo brands. I consume on alternate days.
Cos I also taking very expensive meds for my High BP and cholesterol. So left little money for Vitamins.

Whatever it is, Vitamin B12 is a must for me. I take 2 days 1 time. Neurobion brand.

Local pharmacy price all harga Yahudi.

Vit D price here easily 3x to 4x the price in USA.

Anyway, I found a multivitamin that has 1000 IU Vit D, so I stop taking extra Vit D pills already.

I take multivitamin from iherb. Very strong till pee green. But I realize it help me since there is something I'm deficient in. After start taking, feel better and healthier. Nowadays I just take ever 5 days or so.

Green or fluorescent yellow?

High levels of Vitamin B2 makes urine fluorescent yellow.

For some reason, manufacturers like to put super high levels of Vitamin B in their pills.

I switched to a multivitamin that has max 100% to 250% recommended daily intake for Vitamin B. No more fluorescent yellow pee.

Previously I took this also. Cheapest I could find in local pharmacies.

The Vitamin B levels all damn high.

Bright yellow urine is because of high levels of Vitamin B2.

I used to take half a pill only per day because I don't want so high levels of Vitamin B.

Now I switched to 21st Century Sentry Men. RM29 only for 120 tablets. rclxm9.gif

My simple 2 cents, if you are the type who maintains a healthy and balanced diet then you don’t really need it but if you eat like most Malaysians do then multivitamins helps to supplement whatever that may be lacking in your daily diet.

Because of global warming (too much carbon dioxide), plants are becoming less nutritious. So it doesn't hurt to supplement with multivitamins.

Something like that greenish yellow. I think it's the riboflavin. Guess my body is rejecting the excess vitamins. lol

This morning I saw the expiry information on the bottle and found that it expires on December 2021!

That means there are less than 2 months to go before expiry and there are 100 tablets in the bottle.

I already took the first tablet yesterday.

No wonder they are selling at promotion price.

Can I claim from Watson's?

Took before, after that felt body heavy, pee yellowing and has stronger odor, other than that didn't feel any enhancement also. Stop taking, not felt lighter and stronger.

Even doctors had never seen anyone with normal diet had nutrient deficiency, so the question to these supplement takers, why?
