Notice, I said do you have, not that you take? i have at least 25 and probably more. There are only a few that I take everyday though. The others I guess I have around if I feel the need. Actually, I noticed when I was cleaning my bathroom pantry that I had echicaneca or however you spell it, which is good for infections..I started using that along with vitamin C for my gums, and in just a couple of days I notice a difference. I think that is here to stay..

I take vitamins C and D daily. I know there are several more in our medicine cabinet but those are Pretty's, not mine. I leave her stuff alone.

@snowy22315 Yes I do. I took D for awhile and then was told D3 absorbs better in your system, has made a huge difference in my Vit D levels.

I eat a lot of fish like sardines and salmon so I really don't need fish oil but you've got me thinking I might do well to get echinacea

With your age and weight it seems you would need calcium or a bone supplement of some sort so you don't develop osteoporosis.Have you had a bone density scan?

@LadyDuck They often recommend something here called os cal hich is a calcium supplement to help bones. I eat quite a bit of yogurt and cheese myself..however eating bones is not something I would do. They don't even recommend them for pets so not really sure how they could be good for people Although I know they are eaten in some parts of the world.

@snowy22315 Yes I had a bone density scan and I do not need more calcium. Too much calcium could lead to stomach pain and diarrhoea. I eat sardines with their bones, the best source of calcium, but I also have yogurt every morning, cheese and I use fortified flour.

Some people really need D suuplements especially if they live in a Northern climate and Calcioum is good to keep teeth and bones strong. Not everyone drinks milk.
