My Vitabiotics Vitamin and Supplement Regime....

I mentioned previously that I would provide details of my vitamin and supplement regime.... just one piece of the jigsaw.... so here you are....

I have found, through trial and error, that the Vitabiotics range of vitamins and supplements (for men and women) suit me best. They are widely available in the UK, where I find it more convenient to order online, they offer "3 for 2" on all products, plus reward points (that soon add up). This is true of the UK - Worldwide site: Vitabiotics (UK - Worldwide) link to online store

The also have a site for the USA, unfortunately this appears to offer multi-vitamins only: Vitabiotics (USA) link to online store

I am not sponsored by Vitabiotics and I have no affiliation to them. I am just a satisfied customer.

The links provided are to the Vitabiotics website where you can see exactly what each tablet/capsule contains. I hope you find this blog post informative and that it perhaps enables you to compare and contrast.

Please remember that this is what works for me. For example: I tried taking extra vitamin C but whatever brand I used I found they gave me a persistent headache every day without fail.

I have been following this regime for the past six months now....

BREAKFAST: Immediately after breakfast, and before having a hot drink, I take 4 Ultra Vitamin D3 tablets and 1 Ultra B Vitamin Complex tablet with a glass of water. I then wait for another half an hour, enough time for another glass of water, before having my first cup of decaffeinated tea.... PG tips: The Delicate One






MAIN MEAL: After my main meal of the day, and again with a glass of water, I take a Wellman multi-vitamin tablet and it's accompanying omega 3-6-9 oils capsule, plus a slow release Feroglobin capsule. At this time I again have another glass of water and leave it half an hour before having a hot drink.






BEDTIME: This is when I take my thyroid medication. It works best for me at night. Mornings were a total disaster for me.... I became even more of a Zombie.... I never felt like I had woken up.... EVER! It sits well with me that I'm giving my medication the chance to work on me whilst I am sleeping.


CONCLUSION: I generally only have the 2 meals per day. I have become quite regimented in my approach, even more so since I discovered that I am wheat intolerant. This again seems to suit my personality (Borderline Personality Disorder) so I am happy to stick with it for now.... any changes and you'll be the first to know.

Preparing this blog post got me thinking about how my vitamin and supplement regime fits into my whole plan for well-being. Another blog post will follow soon about "Foundations" and "Building Blocks".... I bet you can't wait! *winks & chuckles*


For now, please remember, that for as long as we have hope we have a chance.
