Is it just me or do other people dread taking vitamins? They get stuck in your throat, make you gag, nauseous and burp up Vitamin B taste...YUCK. A few years ago I put myself on a regimen of a daily multi-vitamin, calcium, Vitamin D and baby aspirin. I would diligently take my vitamins after lunch with some carrot/orange juice blend (which helped disguise the taste of the vitamins and gave me an extra bit of carotene!) As time moved on, I found myself never re-filling my little pill boxes except for the baby aspirin which are chewable. Honestly, I haven't felt any different but it always provides that added insurance of any unintended deficiencies in my diet.
Yesterday, I decided that I had better start up again because I realized that my skin is very pale due to the winter months and I could probably use an increase in Vitamin D. So with that I proceeded to get my Vitamin D capsule stuck in my throat. Oh well. I will try again today.
BTW, I know omega oil is a really good one to take but I am REALLY afraid of that one. What do you do to tolerate vitamins and what do you recommend?
